Route Description
Northbound, the expressway runs from the Kennedy Expressway in Chicago north to the Edens Spur of the Tri-State Tollway in Northbrook. U.S. Route 41 joins I-94 just north of Skokie until the junction with the Edens Spur. At that point, I-94 diverges onto the spur, while U.S. Highway 41 remains on the mainline as the Skokie Highway, continuing north through the northern suburbs of Chicago.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“Whose are the truly labored sentences? From the weak and flimsy periods of the politician and literary man, we are glad to turn even to the description of work, the simple record of the month’s labor in the farmer’s almanac, to restore our tone and spirits.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
