&#039;&#039;&#039;U.S. Route&amp;amp;nbsp;95&#039;&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;&#039;US&amp;amp;nbsp;95&#039;&#039;&#039;) is a major north–south [[United States Numbered Highway System|United States Highway]] in the western United States. It travels through the states of [[Arizona]], [[California]], [[Nevada]], [[Oregon]], and [[Idaho]], staying inland from the [[West Coast of the United States|Pacific Coast]]. US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 begins in [[San Luis, Arizona]], at the [[Mexico–United States border|Mexican border]], where Calle&amp;amp;nbsp;1—a short [[Spur route|spur]]—leads to [[Mexican Federal Highway 2|Highway&amp;amp;nbsp;2]] in [[San Luis Río Colorado]], [[Sonora]]. Its northern terminus is at the [[Canada–United States border|Canadian border]] in [[Eastport, Idaho]], where the roadway continues north as [[British Columbia Highway 95|British Columbia Highway&amp;amp;nbsp;95]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;termini&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Endpoints of US highways: [http://usends.com/95.html U.S. Highway 95] and [http://usends.com/630.html U.S. Highway 630]{{self-published inline|certain=yes|date=July 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike many other US Highways, it has not seen deletion or replacement on most of its length by an encroaching [[Interstate Highway System|Interstate Highway]] corridor, due to its mostly rural and mountainous course. Because of this, it still travels from border to border and is a primary north–south highway in both Nevada and Idaho. This is one of the few US Routes to cross from [[Mexico]] to [[Canada]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Route description==&lt;br /&gt;
===Arizona===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|U.S. Route 95 in Arizona}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 begins in the United States at the [[San Luis Port of Entry]], which connects it with Mexico. It then follows the [[Colorado River]] northward to [[San Luis, Arizona|San Luis]] and on to [[Yuma, Arizona|Yuma]], where it goes through town and crosses [[Interstate 8|I-8]]. As it leaves Yuma, US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 is an undivided two-lane highway that passes through the [[United States Army|U.S. Army&#039;s]] [[Yuma Proving Ground]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 Interstate Sign.JPG|thumb|left|Sign for a US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 junction along Interstate&amp;amp;nbsp;10]]&lt;br /&gt;
It then travels northward between the proving ground to the west and the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge to the east until [[Quartzsite, Arizona|Quartzsite]]. Here, it merges with [[Interstate 10 in Arizona|I-10]] and runs [[Concurrency (road)|concurrent]], heading westward for {{Convert|17|mi|km}} until the Colorado River, where it enters California, just shy of [[Blythe, California|Blythe]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 spends {{Convert|123.16|mi|km}} in Arizona.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ADOT Highway Log&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://tpd.az.gov/data/reports/2006SHSLog.pdf|title=2006 ADOT Highway Log |author=Arizona Department of Transportation |author-link=Arizona Department of Transportation |access-date=May 1, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080625073807/http://tpd.az.gov/data/reports/2006SHSLog.pdf &amp;lt;!-- Bot retrieved archive --&amp;gt;|archive-date=June 25, 2008}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===California===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|U.S. Route 95 in California}}&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 enters California at Blythe along its dual segment/concurrency with [[Interstate 10 in California|I-10]]. It travels largely parallel to the west bank of the Colorado River until it joins [[Interstate 40 in California|I-40]] in [[Needles, California|Needles]]. The route then travels north from [[Goffs, California|Goffs]] to the Nevada state line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The total distance in California is about {{convert|130|mi}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Nevada===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|U.S. Route 95 in Nevada}}&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 in Nevada is a divided highway between [[Cal-Nev-Ari, Nevada|Cal-Nev-Ari]] (the [[Nevada State Route 163|SR 163]] junction to [[Laughlin, Nevada|Laughlin]]) and [[Boulder City, Nevada|Boulder City]]. It is the longest highway in Nevada, at nearly {{Convert|647|mi|km|sigfig=3}}. It joins at the interchange as a multi-lane divided freeway past [[Nevada State Route 173|SR 173]] and as part of the [[Concurrency (road)|concurrent]] route of [[Interstate 11|I-11]] and [[U.S. Route 93 in Nevada|US 93]] in Boulder City. It crosses [[Interstate 15 in Nevada|I-15]] at the [[Spaghetti Bowl (Las Vegas)|Spaghetti Bowl]], where US&amp;amp;nbsp;93 becomes concurrent with I-15. US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 continues as a freeway until again becoming a divided highway at Corn Creek Road, where I-11 temporarily ends, northwest of the [[Las Vegas Valley]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shortly after entering [[Nye County, Nevada|Nye County]], US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 becomes an undivided two-lane highway past the [[Mercury, Nevada|Mercury]] interchange, as it meanders northwestward through the state, roughly paralleling the California state line. Along this route, it runs through the [[Amargosa Valley]], serving [[Beatty, Nevada|Beatty]] before heading north into [[Goldfield, Nevada|Goldfield]] and [[Tonopah, Nevada|Tonopah]]. The highway is concurrent with [[U.S. Route 6 in Nevada|US 6]] for several miles north of Tonopah, before it then heads north towards [[Hawthorne, Nevada|Hawthorne]], [[Schurz, Nevada|Schurz]] (where it meets [[U.S. Route 95 Alternate (Schurz–Fernley, Nevada)|US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 ALT]], which heads northwest toward [[Yerington, Nevada|Yerington]], [[Carson City, Nevada|Carson City]]—via US&amp;amp;nbsp;50 west—[[Reno, Nevada|Reno]]—via Ramsey Weeks Cutoff, US&amp;amp;nbsp;50 east, SR&amp;amp;nbsp;439 north, and I-80 west—and [[Fernley, Nevada|Fernley]]) and [[Fallon, Nevada|Fallon]]. North of Fallon, it meets and runs concurrently with [[Interstate 80 in Nevada|I-80]] for {{convert|93|mi}}, from Exit&amp;amp;nbsp;83 west of [[Lovelock, Nevada|Lovelock]] to Exit&amp;amp;nbsp;176 at [[Winnemucca, Nevada|Winnemucca]]. It then heads north to the border with [[Oregon]] at [[McDermitt, Nevada and Oregon|McDermitt]], a distance of {{convert|73|mi|km|sigfig=2}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Oregon===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Attached KML|from=U.S. Route 95 in Oregon}}&lt;br /&gt;
In Oregon, US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 is an undivided two-lane highway in the sparsely populated high desert in the [[Eastern Oregon|southeastern]] corner of the state, running completely in rural [[Malheur County, Oregon|Malheur County]]. From the Nevada state line at [[McDermitt, Nevada and Oregon|McDermitt]], the highway heads north and gradually climbs to its crest at Blue Mountain Pass, at an [[elevation]] of {{convert|5293|ft|m}} [[Sea level#AMSL|above sea level]]. US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 descends to Basque Station and [[Burns Junction, Oregon|Burns Junction]] at {{convert|3960|ft|m}}, then eastward down to [[Rome, Oregon|Rome]] ({{convert|3390|ft|m|abbr=on|disp=sqbr}}) and up to [[Jordan Valley, Oregon|Jordan Valley]] ({{convert|4389|ft|m|abbr=on|disp=sqbr}}).  The highway heads north-northeastward to the [[Idaho]] state line, entering southwest of [[Marsing, Idaho|Marsing]] in [[Owyhee County, Idaho|Owyhee County]]. The speed limit on US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 in Oregon was {{convert|55|mph|km/h|abbr=off|sp=us}} until March 2016, when it was raised to {{convert|70|mph|km/h|abbr=out|sp=us}} to match the speed limits set by Nevada and Idaho.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Elliot|first=Njus|url=http://www.oregonlive.com/commuting/index.ssf/2016/02/speed_limits_jump_this_week_on.html|title=Speed limits jump this week on some Oregon highways|date=March 1, 2016|work=The Oregonian|access-date=May 27, 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Intersection of US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 and Oregon Route 78.JPG|thumb|left|Intersection of US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 and Oregon Route 78]]&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 is designated the &#039;&#039;&#039;I.O.N. Highway No. 456&#039;&#039;&#039; (see [[Oregon highways and routes]]); &amp;quot;I.O.N.&amp;quot; stands for Idaho–Oregon–Nevada. This section of highway is a primary commercial route between [[Boise, Idaho|Boise]] and northern [[California]], connecting to [[Interstate 80 in Nevada|I-80]] at [[Winnemucca, Nevada|Winnemucca]], [[Nevada]]. US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 crosses into the [[Mountain Time Zone]] approximately {{convert|35|mi|km|sigfig=2}} north of [[Nevada]].&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:USRoute95Mile419.9.jpg|thumb|US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 at mile marker 419.9 in Idaho]]&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 is an undivided two-lane highway during most of its length in Idaho, which is over {{convert|538|mi|km}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 enters Idaho from Oregon in [[Owyhee County, Idaho|Owyhee County]], about {{Convert|50|mi|km}} southwest of [[Boise, Idaho|Boise]]. It passes through [[Homedale, Idaho|Homedale]] and crosses the [[Snake River]] before a junction with concurrent [[U.S. Route 20|US 20]] and [[U.S. Route 26|US 26]], which run together for {{convert|8|mi|km|spell=in}}. As it proceeds north, US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 crosses [[Interstate 84 (west)|I-84]] and [[U.S. Route 30|US 30]] before going through the [[Payette National Forest]]. Immediately after [[Riggins, Idaho|Riggins]], the highway re-enters the [[Pacific Time Zone]] as it crosses the [[Salmon River (Idaho)|Salmon River]]. US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 follows the descending river, then climbs over [[White Bird Hill Summit|White Bird Hill]] to the [[Camas Prairie#Idaho|Camas Prairie]], then descends the Lapwai Canyon to the [[Clearwater River (Idaho)|Clearwater River]]. In August 2015, milepost&amp;amp;nbsp;420 was replaced with one reading 419.9 to prevent the sign from being stolen by [[marijuana]] enthusiasts.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=http://www.ktvb.com/story/news/local/idaho/2015/08/18/idaho-replaces-mile-marker-420-with-4199-to-thwart-stoners/31928433/|title=Idaho replaces mile marker 420 with 419.9 to thwart stoners|first=Kimberlee|last=Kruesi|agency=Associated Press|website=[[KTVB|KTVB.com]]|date=August 18, 2015|access-date=August 18, 2015|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150820184544/http://www.ktvb.com/story/news/local/idaho/2015/08/18/idaho-replaces-mile-marker-420-with-4199-to-thwart-stoners/31928433/|archive-date=August 20, 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 becomes a four-lane divided highway after crossing the river east of [[Lewiston, Idaho|Lewiston]]; it runs concurrent with [[U.S. Route 12|US 12]] for several miles. The highways split as US&amp;amp;nbsp;12 continues west to Lewiston, and US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 turns northwest and climbs a steep grade up to the rolling [[Palouse]]. At a junction with [[U.S. Route 195|US 195]], US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 proceeds north to [[Moscow, Idaho|Moscow]] as a recently completed divided highway. It becomes an undivided highway in Moscow and continues north to [[Coeur d&#039;Alene, Idaho|Coeur d&#039;Alene]], crossing [[Interstate 90|I-90]]. US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 goes north to [[Sandpoint, Idaho|Sandpoint]], where it joins with [[U.S. Route 2|US 2]], after which the highways run concurrent until after [[Bonners Ferry, Idaho|Bonners Ferry]], where US&amp;amp;nbsp;2 heads east to [[Montana]], and US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 continues north to [[Canada]], meeting [[British Columbia Highway 95|BC 95]] at the [[Canada|Canadian]] border, at the [[Eastport-Kingsgate Border Crossing]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
US 95 was one of the original [[United States Numbered Highways|U.S. highways]] proposed in the 1925 Bureau of Public Roads numbering plan. Under the original proposal, the highway would only exist in [[Idaho]], from [[Payette, Idaho|Payette]] to the Canada–US border north of [[Eastport, Idaho|Eastport]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;AASHO 1925&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |type= Report |author = Joint Board on Interstate Highways |year = 1925 |chapter = Appendix VI: Descriptions of the Interstate Routes Selected, with Numbers Assigned |chapter-url = https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Report_of_Joint_Board_on_Interstate_Highways_October_30,_1925#56 |title = Report of Joint Board on Interstate Highways, October 30, 1925, Approved by the Secretary of Agriculture, November 18, 1925 |location= Washington, DC |publisher= [[United States Department of Agriculture]]  |pages = 56 |id= {{OCLC|733875457|55123355|71026428}} |via = [[Wikisource]] |access-date=June 26, 2023 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; When the plan was adopted by the [[American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials]] on November 11, 1926, the route of US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 had been approved south to [[Weiser, Idaho|Weiser]], still existing solely in Idaho.&amp;lt;ref name=FHWA&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/highwayhistory/us95.cfm|title=U.S. 95 and Idaho&#039;s North and South Highway|date=October 17, 2008|work=Highway History|publisher=[[Federal Highway Administration]]|access-date=June 26, 2023}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; A proposal to extend US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 south to [[Winnemucca, Nevada|Winnemucca]], [[Nevada]], was considered by AASHO in 1937; however, action was deferred due to sections in Oregon that were incomplete. AASHTO reconsidered the idea at its meeting on June 28, 1939, as part of a larger plan to extend the highway south to [[Blythe, California|Blythe]], [[California]]. This plan was adopted at that meeting and became effective on January 1, 1940.&amp;lt;ref name=FHWA/&amp;gt; On June 27, 1960, US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 was extended further south into Arizona, through [[Yuma, Arizona|Yuma]] to the [[Mexico–United States border|Mexican border]] in [[San Luis, Arizona|San Luis]], which still serves as the southern terminus of US&amp;amp;nbsp;95.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;FHWA&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

===Washington (former)===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|U.S. Route 195 Spur (Washington)}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
North of [[Lewiston, Idaho]], US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 entered Washington for {{convert|0.91|mi|km}}, partially concurrent with [[U.S. Route 195]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |year=1970 |title=Annual Traffic Report 1970 |page=75 |url=https://www.digitalarchives.wa.gov/do/CAF60E9F0F6B82EF9D33018B34BC2BB8.pdf |publisher=[[Washington State Highway Commission]] |via=[[Washington State Archives]] |accessdate=December 2, 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite WSDOT map |year=1978 |accessdate=December 2, 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The route was moved to a new four-lane divided highway that bypassed [[Washington (state)|Washington]] in October 1977.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last=Harrell |first=Sylvia |date=October 27, 1977 |title=The new hill route: $12 million and two decades in the making |pages=D1–D2 |work=[[Lewiston Morning Tribune]] |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=qoVfAAAAIBAJ&amp;amp;sjid=9zAMAAAAIBAJ&amp;amp;pg=4819%2C9175354 |via=[[Google News Archives]] |accessdate=December 2, 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The section was replaced by an extension of US&amp;amp;nbsp;195 and a [[U.S. Route 195 Spur (Washington)|spur route]] created in 1979.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite Washington session law |year=1979 |ext=1st |chapter=33 |date=April 23, 1979 |title=State Highway Routes |page=1118 |accessdate=December 2, 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Idaho===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In April 2005, the Idaho legislature approved a bill to widen the entire highway from two lanes to four lanes for the entire route starting at the US-Canada port of entry in Eastport, and ending at the border with [[Oregon]] in remote [[Owyhee County, Idaho|Owyhee County]]. The contract for the project was awarded to [[Washington Group International]] and [[CH2M Hill]]. The contract is worth more than $1.2&amp;amp;nbsp;billion, and is slated to last for more than six years, cover 13 major reconstruction projects, affecting over {{Convert|250|mi|km}} of the highway&#039;s nearly {{Convert|460|mi|km}} in the state.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The major factors in the reconstruction are due to the fact that US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 is the only route that runs from north to south in western Idaho, starting at Eastport in the north and ending in remote [[Owyhee County, Idaho|Owyhee County]]; as well as safety concerns because there have been numerous accidents and fatalities on the narrow and very dangerous curves. This change started with the reconstruction and improvements made to White Bird Hill. Major projects have been undertaken including on the [[Coeur d&#039;Alene Indian Reservation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first stage was completed in August 2005 from just south of Coeur d&#039;Alene to Fighting Creek Road, and is an upgraded four-lane highway for approximately {{Convert|10|mi|km|spell=in}}. The second stage, from Fighting Creek Road to Lake Creek on the Coeur d&#039;Alene Indian Reservation, was completed in late July-early August 2006 and upgraded a {{Convert|7|mi|km|adj=on|spell=in}} stretch of the highway. The third stage, from Lake Creek to [[Worley, Idaho|Worley]], started mid-to-late 2006 and was completed in 2008. This section is significant, as it is on the Coeur d&#039;Alene Indian Reservation. The &amp;quot;new&amp;quot; highway bypasses the [[Coeur d&#039;Alene Casino]], the largest business on the reservation, with the old highway becoming an alternate route that will connect the highway to the casino and the more remote regions of the reservation. This project improved a {{Convert|20|mi|km|adj=on}} stretch of highway and shortened the length of the highway by about {{Convert|20|mi|km}}.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, a nearly {{Convert|20|mi|km|adj=on}} stretch was completed in 2007 from just north of [[Lewiston, Idaho|Lewiston]] to {{Convert|6|mi|km|sigfig=1}} south of [[Moscow, Idaho|Moscow]].&lt;br /&gt;

US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 is part of a proposed northwestward extension of [[Interstate 11]] (I-11) from Las Vegas. The interstate highway would primarily follow the US&amp;amp;nbsp;95 corridor through central and northwestern Nevada, extending to [[Interstate 80 in Nevada|I-80]] near [[Reno, Nevada|Reno]] and [[Sparks, Nevada|Sparks]] via [[Tonopah, Nevada|Tonopah]]. In 2018, the [[Nevada Department of Transportation]] had initiated public outreach regarding its long-range planning efforts to narrow down options for the future I-11 corridor.&amp;lt;ref name=futureI11plans&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Marroquin|first=Art|title=Public meetings on future of I-11 to be held in 7 Nevada cities|url=https://www.reviewjournal.com/local/local-las-vegas/public-meetings-on-future-of-i-11-to-be-held-in-7-nevada-cities/|date=July 13, 2018|work=[[Las Vegas Review-Journal]]|access-date=March 27, 2019|url-access=subscription}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Alonzo|first=Amy|url=https://www.rgj.com/story/news/local/leader-courier/2018/07/26/ndot-says-interstate-11-pass-near-fernley/845533002/|title=Interstate connecting Canada, Mexico might pass near Fernley|date=July 26, 2018|work=[[Fernley Leader–Courier]]|publisher=[[Reno Gazette–Journal]]|access-date=March 27, 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
