Descripción de la ruta
Tennesse
US 31E comienza como Ellington Parkway en la esquina de Main Street y US 31 , US 31W , US 41 y US 431 (Spring Street) justo al este de la Interestatal 24 (I-24). Los intercambios de la autopista en el medio de la ruta incluyen principalmente calles mantenidas localmente como Cleveland Street, East Trinity Lane, Hart Lane y Broadmoor Drive. [4]
Ellington Parkway termina en un intercambio con SR 155 ( Briley Parkway ), aproximadamente a 0.56 millas (900 m) al este del cruce de la I-65 de Briley . En el cruce Briley / Ellington se proporciona una rampa que dirige el tráfico en dirección norte de Ellington Parkway hacia la I-65 norte. El acceso a Ellington Parkway en dirección sur también se proporciona mediante una rampa desde la I-65 sur a través de la salida 90A. La carretera lleva el nombre del ex gobernador de Tennessee Buford Ellington , quien cumplió dos mandatos no consecutivos de 1959 a 1963 y el otro de 1967 a 1971. Ellington fomentó la construcción de muchas carreteras en todo el estado durante su segundo mandato como gobernador.
Después de Nashville, la carretera pasa por Hendersonville y Gallatin, Tennessee . Nunca cruza la Interestatal 40 .
Kentucky
La US Route 31E es la más oriental de las dos rutas paralelas de la US Highway 31 en Kentucky , entre cada una se encuentra la Interestatal 65 en Kentucky . En el extremo norte está Louisville , Kentucky , comenzando en el Puente Conmemorativo George Rogers Clark . Hacia el sur, atraviesa las ciudades de Mount Washington , Bardstown , New Haven , Hodgenville , Glasgow y Scottsville antes de llegar a la frontera con Tennessee . En el siglo XIX, la misma ruta era un camino de diligencias entre Louisville y Nashville, Tennessee , y antes de eso una ruta postal al menos en 1820. [5] Originalmente parte de la Jackson Highway , la Works Progress Administration midió la distancia total en 31E en Kentucky como 147,8 millas (237,9 km). [6]
Its only interchanges with interstates are in Jefferson County; both of which are beltways: Interstate 264 (Watterson Expressway) and the I-265/Gene Snyder Expressway. However, it has intersections with the state freeways of Martha Layne Collins Blue Grass Parkway (in Nelson County) and with the Louie B. Nunn Cumberland Parkway in Barren County.
There are various historical sites along 31E in Kentucky. Among them are Cave Hill Cemetery and Farmington Historic Plantation in Louisville, My Old Kentucky Home State Park in Bardstown, and Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Site just south of Hodgenville. Also, five historic monuments to the Civil War are along the path: three in Louisville, one in Bardstown, and one in Glasgow.[7]
31E has been known as a dangerous road, with many risky spots. A historic one was at Coxs Creek in Nelson County, where a post office had to be relocated so traffic could see each other.[8] Other dangerous spots in Nelson County where emergency personnel consider notorious are Gobel Lake Curve, Hibbs Lane, and High Grove.[9] As of August 23, 2017, the Hibbs Lane and High Grove reroute sections are almost complete and are in service. Minor work is still being done to some intersections and signage.
When the rerouting of 31E in Nelson and Spencer Counties was being planned, a survey of historic sites that could have been affected by the new route was studied, especially if the sites could one day become listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[10]
Historia
The American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHO) adopted a resolution against split routes in 1934. In order to eliminate the split in US 31 between Nashville, Tennessee, and Louisville, Kentucky, AASHO commissioned U.S. Route 37, replacing US 31E from the Louisville area south to Glasgow, Kentucky, where it then followed Kentucky Route 63 and several routes in Tennessee to Chattanooga. The rest of US 31E from Glasgow to Nashville was assigned U.S. Route 143. This proposed route was extended southwest to Centerville in 1938 and Jackson in 1944 via State Route 100 and State Route 20. US 31W would have become the main route of US 31.
Kentucky and Tennessee refused to accept the renumbering and never changed signage for the routes. In 1952, AASHO re-recognized the split, officially restoring the US 31E and US 31W designations.
US 31E once terminated at US 31 in Sellersburg, Indiana until 1980. It followed the current routing of US 31 from Sellersburg to Louisville.
