Then, I-91 enters the city of Holyoke where exit 12 (old exit 15) is located. Just after an interchange with US 202, (exit 16) I-91 goes from three lanes to two lanes in each direction to the Vermont state line. [11] After a short exit-less stretch, I-91 enters Northampton, passing the Northampton Airport and an oxbow lake.
Immediately upon entering the city, US 20 interchanges with Interstate 91 (I-91) at exit 6 (formerly exit 8), where it leaves the surface street (which is picked up by Route 20A [a]), to join I-291, which begins just to the south. US 20 is concurrent with most of I-291, about five miles (8.0 km).
I-291 was originally conceived in 1953, prior to the creation of the Interstate Highway System, as the Springfield Expressway, which would bypass US 20 and connect to the US 5 expressway (now I-91) and the proposed Massachusetts Turnpike. I-291 follows the original planned alignment of the expressway, except for the stretch between exit 4 (St ...
Interstate 93 (I-93) is an Interstate Highway in the New England states of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont in the United States. Spanning approximately 190 miles (310 km) along a north–south axis, it is one of three primary Interstate Highways located entirely within New England; the other two are I-89 and I-91.
After skirting the southeast side of Sioux City as a freeway with US 75, US 20 continues east as an expressway to Moville. From Moville through north of Early at the junction with U.S. Route 71 and Iowa Highway 471, US 20 was reconstructed from a rural two-lane highway to a four-lane road. This segment re-opened October 19, 2018 and made it so ...
The 30-mile (48 km) gap between exit 10 to US 20 in Lee and exit 41 to US 202 and Route 10 in Westfield (the first in Hampden County) is the longest gap between exits on the entire length of I-90, [11] and the fifth-longest gap between exits in the entire Interstate Highway System. [12]
The longest Interstate Highway in Massachusetts is I-90 with 136 miles, followed by I-495 with 121 miles. Several freeway projects in the Boston area planned as part of the Interstate Highway System were cancelled in the 1970s following community opposition , including the Inner Belt (I-695) and Southwest Expressway (I-95).

Numbering on the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90) increased from 1 to 26; however, exits 11 and 11A were almost 10 miles (16 km) apart, exits 14 and 15 were the same exit, exit 15B was a westbound-only off-ramp, exits 18 and 20 were the same exit, exit 19 was a mainline toll plaza until 2016, and exits 21 and 23 were westbound on-ramps only.
