Interstate possibility?

Is there any considerations of an Interstate designation being added on this corridor west of (and/or concurrent with) I-74? Something along the lines of, say, I-36? CrazyC83 01:01, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

At this time, US 74 is not being replaced nor speculated to become a new Interstate highway anytime soon. -WashuOtaku (talk) 03:14, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Independence Boulevard (Charlotte) merger

Proposed to merge Independence Boulevard (Charlotte) into article as it is entirely part of US 74.

Where US 74's western beginning is

It is correct that US 74's signage is poor. But US 74 actually begins underneath a bridge on Interstate 75 at mile marker 24 in Cleveland, Tennessee. Exit 20 is where the US 64-74 Bypass begins, known as APD-40. After 74 begins under the bridge it goes downtown, splits up then goes under APD-40. After, US 74 runs together with US 64.Slayer2448 (talk) 11:28, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Can you confirm that somehow? I look on both Google Maps/Street View and Yahoo Maps and I cannot confirm other than where the bypass ends on I-75 (Heck, Google Maps thinks US 74 continues to Chattanooga). I hate Tennessee's signage methods of hidden highways and such, it's insane. --WashuOtaku (talk) 14:57, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

"Future" Section

As of the end of 2018, this section is seriously out of date. Some of these have been completed, some are much further along, and I think some may have been abandoned (I'm not sure). Should that be noted in a note in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teikovo (talk • contribs) 23:52, 30 December 2018 (UTC)

The way the "Future" section typically works is items listed eventually get rolled into the History section, typically rewritten, while new items are listed in the section. The issue is nobody doing it, regardless of reason, thus it stagnates. I get it, it is a lot easier to update the junction list than writing well thought-out paragraphs. --WashuOtaku (talk) 00:06, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
