The highway played a significant role in promoting automobile travel and the development of road infrastructure in the early 20th century. The Interstate Highway System, established later in 1956, was a separate initiative aimed at creating a network of high-speed roads across the country.
The first four-lane highway in the United States is widely considered to be the Pennsylvania Turnpike, which opened in 1940. This highway featured multiple lanes in both directions, setting a precedent for future interstate roadways.
