At only 1.06 mi in length, Interstate 375 (I-375) in Detroit has the distinction of being the shortest signed Interstate Highway that is up to Interstate Standards. Only the unsigned I-878, I-110, and I-315 are shorter. I-375 is the southernmost leg of the Walter P. Chrysler Freeway. It is a spur off I-75 into downtown Detroit to end at the unsigned Business Spur Interstate 375 (BS I-375), better known as Jefferson Avenue. The freeway starts near the Renaissance Center downtown and turns northward. Between 14,000 and 54,000 vehicles use I-375 on average each day. Construction on the freeway started on January 30, 1959, and it opened on June 26, 1964. (more...)
