Interstate 675 (Ohio)
Interstate 675 (I-675) is an auxiliary interstate highway in the suburbs of Dayton in the U.S. state of Ohio. Interstate 675 serves as an eastern bypass of Dayton. I-675 measures 26.53 miles (42.70 km) in length. As originally proposed, the route was to reconnect with I-75 north of Dayton near Northridge rather than going east towards Springfield and I-70 (this was later rejected because part of the right-of-way would have gone through Wright-Patterson Air Force Base). Construction was completed in 1987, though some have lobbied to extend the highway west of Dayton.

Famous quotes containing the word interstate:
“At bottom, I mean profoundly at bottom, the FBI has nothing to do with Communism, it has nothing to do with catching criminals, it has nothing to do with the Mafia, the syndicate, it has nothing to do with trust-busting, it has nothing to do with interstate commerce, it has nothing to do with anything but serving as a church for the mediocre. A high church for the true mediocre.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
