I-80
Coast-to-coast route
I-80 is Interstate 80, a major U.S. highway stretching from San Francisco to New Jersey—one of the longest interstate routes in the country.
It crosses the Sierra Nevada, the Great Basin, the Rocky Mountains, and the Great Plains.
We drove I-80 straight through from Sacramento to Omaha.
Often called simply "80" in conversation.
