Interstate 80

Interstate 80 (I-80) is an east–west interstate highway crossing northern California, Nevada, Utah, southern Wyoming, Nebraska, and Iowa in American Truck Simulator. It runs the long distance from US 101 in San Francisco to Interstate 480 and US 67 in Davenport.

In real-life, Interstate 80 runs from San Francisco to Teaneck, New Jersey. It is the second-longest Interstate Highway in the United States and the tenth longest highway in the world, after Interstate 90.

Course

Interstate 80 begins at US 101 in San Francisco. The freeway follows the Bayshore Viaduct towards the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge from the latter city's waterfront known as "The Embarcadero." The Bay Bridge, consisting of two differently designed spans, separated by stacked tunnels through Yerba Buena Island, carries I-80 across the San Francisco Bay into Oakland with a westbound toll gate into the city. The highway approaches the MacArthur Maze, or locally known as "the Maze", where it splits into three freeways, being I-80 itself, Interstates 580, and 980 in-game (in real-life, it's I-80, I-580, and I-880; I-580 follows the majority of I-880 in ATS). Beyond the Maze, Interstate 80 follows the Eastshore Freeway and runs concurrent with Interstate 580 for a short distance to Richmond, with its concurrency terminating near Richmond. Leaving the Bay Area, I-80 crosses the San Andreas Fault and enters the city of Crockett, where it crosses the Carquinez Bridge above the Carquinez Strait, featuring an eastbound toll gate. After intersecting with SR 37 in Vallejo, the highway turns east into the Sacramento Valley, where it passes through the north end of the city of Sacramento and intersects with US 50 and Interstate 5. Once past the state capital, the highway progresses to the Sierra Nevada via Donner Pass (7227 ft), where it crests the summit at a rest area. On the east slope, I-80 passes through Truckee, just east of the pass' summit. Shortly after leaving Truckee, the highway passes a westbound weigh station, which also houses the California Border Protection Stations. Past the weigh station, the road bends north and south as it approaches Nevada.

After crossing the border Interstate 80 goes around a bend and enters the city of Reno, where it intersects with US 395 and Interstate 580. After leaving Reno, the highway begins its long course across the Great Basin, a route across the vast, mountainous desert that closely follows the path of the California Trail. As the highway trends north, it comes across an eastbound weigh station shortly after Reno. At the end of the long, northeast span the highway meets the first exit in 273 miles, for the town of Winnemucca and US 95. Then the highway begins running alongside the Humboldt River as it leads to Battle Mountain and SR 305, where a small gas station is provided, and soon after crosses the Humboldt twice at the Carlin Tunnels (which, in the game, are significantly further west than in reality). Continuing east, Elko and SR 225 are reached, and after east and westbound weigh stations the highway stretches towards Wells and US 93. Out of Wells the highway appears to cross the Toano Range via Silverzone Pass (5940 ft), and descends to the state-line town of West Wendover and US 93 Alternate.

At the Utah border, West Wendover becomes Wendover and, after east and westbound weigh stations, Interstate 80 crosses the white, flat expanse of the Great Salt Lake Desert, a minimalist landscape notable for the land speed records set here. Leaving these salt flats, the highway skirts the northern edge of the Cedar Mountains, where the chimney of the Kennecott Smelter (an Avalanche Steel facility) can be seen. This smokestack, at 1215 ft (370 m), is the tallest free-standing structure in the American West and the fourth-tallest chimney in the world. After passing the smelter the highway enters Salt Lake City, Utah's capital and largest city, where it intersects with Interstate 15. The highway leaves the city via Parleys Canyon, one of the few highway routes across the historically daunting Wasatch Mountains, and meets with US 40 and 189 at Silver Summit, this being the former's western terminus. Past this summit, the highway descends into the valley of the Weber River, which features overlooks by the Echo Reservoir, and meets with Interstate 84 at its eastern terminus.

Past the junction with I-84, the 80 climbs through the red-walled Echo Canyon, which features Utah's Echo Port of Entry, a weigh station that offers a rest area. Out of the canyon, the highway enters Wyoming, where there is another port of entry and the city of Evanston. Past Evanston, the 80 crosses the Bear River Divide, exiting the Great Basin; here there is a length of highway called the "Highway to Heaven," a long, straight, hilly stretch of road that, when viewed from the correct angle and under the right conditions, appears to reach into the sky. Now back in the watershed of the Pacific, the highway meets with US 30 at Little America, the 30 beginning a concurrency near the famous truck stop. Soon the 80 passes to the north of the town of Green River; here the highway begins running along the southern edge of White Mountain, a large mesa lined with dramatic cliffs and buttes, with the 80 passing through a promontory via the Twin Tunnels. Past Green River, the highway runs through Rock Springs, where it crosses paths with US 191. Out of Rock Springs, the 80 enters the Red Desert and the Great Divide Basin, a rugged, alkaline desert that makes up much of the highway between Rock Springs and Rawlins. In this desert the 80 meets WY 789, the longest state highway in Wyoming, having come up from Baggs and the Colorado state line. US 789 runs concurrent with I-80 as it exits the Red Desert and enters the Atlantic watershed, and breaks away at Rawlins, where US 287 begins a concurrency. East of Rawlins the 80 passes to the south of Sinclair, a town dominated by its refinery, a significant landmark along the 80. The highway then curves around Laramie, and rejoins with US 30; in real life, the 30 breaks from I-80 east of Sinclair and heads northeast to Medicine Bow, a segment of the highway sacrificed due to the condensed nature of the game's map. It is also at Laramie that US 287, in real life, breaks from the 80, heading south to Fort Collins. Out of Laramie, the 80 enters the forested Laramie Mountains, where it climbs to Sherman Summit, which, at an elevation of 8640 ft (2630 m), is the highest point of I-80; the summit offers a rest area, which features a bronze bust of Abraham Lincoln (16th US president), commemorating the Lincoln Highway, one of the earliest transcontinental highways, which also reached its high point in the Laramies. Descending from Sherman Summit, the 80 passes the very small town of Buford (population: 1) and soon after reaches Cheyenne, the largest city and state capital of Wyoming, and Interstate 25. I-80 intersects Interstate 180/US 85, which provides access to downtown before climbing Archer Hill and entering Nebraska.

After passes a westbound weigh station, I-80 heads southwest along the crest of Archer Hill and runs closely parallel to the Colorado state line to the south. Leveling out of the hill, the highway heads east into Sidney, crossing US 385, before heading southeast again and passes a scenic overlook at O'Fallon's Bluff, which also happens to be a secret road in ATS. After crossing the South Platte River, I-80 meets the eastern terminus of Interstate 76, and soon afterwards, the highway enters the Central Time Zone and the Great Plains as it approaches Ogallala, where it meets the eastern terminus of US 26. Midway between Ogallala and North Platte, I-80 passes by a rest area before intersecting US 83 in North Platte. Just east of North Platte, I-80 approaches a weigh station, with scales on both sides, and then crosses the Platte River (while it also runs parallel across southern Nebraska) before approaching its junction with US 183, which features a truck stop. After a few miles, the highway passes under the Great Platte River Road Archway Monument, which features a westbound rest stop. Just past the arch, Interstate 80 crosses US 281, just south of Grand Island. Interstate 80 crosses the Platte River a second time and passes through York before entering Lincoln, the state capital of Nebraska, which parallels a rendered portion of US 6 and intersects US 77. For the third and final time, I-80 crosses the Platte River before entering Omaha, the largest city in the state; its first approaching auxiliary route, Interstate 680, serves as a bypass route around Omaha, while I-80 travels near downtown and intersects Interstate 480 (another auxiliary route in the city) and US 75, before continuing into Iowa.

Upon crossing the Missouri River bridge, I-80 reaches Council Bluffs and meets I-29 and US 6 at a Y interchange." Upon leaving Council Blufsf, I-80 turns east to head to the state capital of Des Moines. In between Council Bluffs and Des Moines, the highway intersects US 71 and passes a rest area before entering the City of Des Moines. "As I-80 approaches Des Moines, it joins with Interstate 35 to form a bypass around the downtown core, while Interstate 235 takes a direct route through the city center and later reunites with both interstates." Upon leaving I-35, I-80 intersects US 63 which connects Waterloo and Ottumwa. Upon Approaching, Iowa City, The Highway Has an Interchange With Exit 216 which provides access to a truckstop and a mcClane facility. In Iowa City, I-80 intersects Interstate 380 which provides access to Cedar Rapids to the north and Mount Pleasant to the south via US 218 . En route to the Quad Cities, I-80 goes through Walcott, passing Iowa 80, which advertises itself as the 'World's Largest Truck Stop' (in game name: THE GREATEST SCS TRUCK STATION). Upon Entering the quad cities Exit 295A is where I-80 meets Interstate 74 at its western terminus. Eastbound I-74 provides access to downtown Davenport. Meanwhile Exit 295B Provides access to US 61 North for Dubuque. Soon after, at exit 306 I-80 intersects US 67 where the highway ends to eventually continue into Illinois.

It is worth noting the historical significance of I-80's route. From Sacramento to Fort Bridger (the nearest in-game town being Little America), the highway follows the route of the California Trail by way of the Hastings Cutoff, a mid-19th century wagon trail notably followed by the infamously ill-fated Donner Party, the namesake of Donner Pass. From Sacramento to Omaha, Nebraska, the highway follows the general route of the First Transcontinental Railroad, the railroad's legacy being prominent in the string of cities along the highway in Wyoming. I-80 has also, for the most part, superceded the route of the Lincoln Highway, which, dedicated in 1913, is one of the earliest transcontinental highways.

Business Routes

There are five business routes of Interstate 80 represented in American Truck Simulator.

Evanston business loop

Interstate 80 Business (I-80 BL) is a business loop of Interstate 80 in Evanston, Wyoming. The highway begins at exit 3 of I-80 and US 189; the ramp from westbound I-80 to the business route lies east of the other three ramps of the diamond interchange. The business routes heads east along Harrison Drive, which veers northeast onto 11th Street at the western edge of the city street grid. In the downtown area, I-80 Bus. turns southeast onto Front Street. At the intersection of Front Street and Sixth Street, which is the northern terminus of WYO 150 and the southern terminus of WYO 89, the business route turns north and crosses a rail line. The highway turns east onto Bear River Drive and follows that road until it rejoins with I-80 at exit 6.

Release History

Map of Interstate 80 in the San Francisco Bay Area in the initial version of the game.

• In the initial version of American Truck Simulator, Interstate 80 was split in two sections. The first section began at the Embarcadero in San Francisco and headed east over the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge. Where Interstate 80 currently intersects with Interstate 580 and continues north, it turned to the south and continued as Interstate 580.
