US 24

U.S. Route 24 (US 24) is an east-west US Highway crossing central and eastern Colorado, central Kansas, and northern Missouri in American Truck Simulator. The route is separated into many small sections, with the largest being the very easternmost portion of the route, spanning 100 miles between Interstate 70 and Johnson Village in Colorado. In real life, US 24 runs 1,540 miles (2,478 km) between Minturn, CO, and Clarkston, MI, a suburb of Detroit.

Course

US 24 begins at US 6 and Exit 171 of Interstate 70 in the Eagle Valley and initially runs in a southwesterly direction. It winds its way through the mountains, passes over the Red Cliff Bridge and continues southward to a junction with US 285 just west of Johnson Village, CO. Here, it turns eastward and briefly runs concurrently with US 285 through the town before turning into just US 285.

The next section begins at the intersection with SH 67 in Divide, CO, where signage indicates it continues west to Florissant, though this is inaccessible in the game. The highway travels east along the edge of Pikes Peak to Exit 141 of Interstate 25 in Colorado Springs, CO. It then briefly runs south concurrently with Interstate 25 before turning off at Exit 139 to head eastbound further into Colorado Springs. US 24 then meets SH 21, where the two run concurrently northbound along Powers Blvd, before US 24 finally splits off and heads east along an inaccessible stretch of road.

US 24 reappears in Limon, CO, just south of Exit 359 of Interstate 70. This portion runs east, concurrently with US 40, US 287, and SH 71, through Limon to Exit 363 of Interstate 70, where US 40 and US 287 continue southwest. The highway appears once again in Burlington, CO, where it runs east in concurrence with US 385 as Rose Ave through the town, before US 385 turns north and US 24 continues east as an inaccessible road.

Entering Kansas, US 24 has sections appearing along Interstate 70 near Kanorado, within Colby, briefly intersecting US 81, and within Kansas City. The section in Kansas City starts at the intersection of Interstate 70 and Interstate 635, and runs east into the Missouri side of the city, ending at Interstate 70 on the outskirts of the city.

The only other section of US 24 appearing in Missouri can be found along US 61 north of Hannibal on the eastern border of the state. The route is breifly drivable before turning east into Illinois, where the route as rendered in American Truck Simulator currently terminates.
