, United States ]] A business route (occasionally '''city route''') is a branch from a Numbered Highway . The purpose of a business route is to link the mainline of its parent route to the Central Business District of a city or town. Usually, the business route connects to its parent route on both ends. Signage of business routes varies, depending on the type of route it is derived from. Business route branches off U.S. and state highways usually have the exact same shields as their parent, however some states are beginning to use green shields for business routes off of U.S. highways. Business Interstate highways use the same four-pointed shield design as regular Interstate highways, but substitute the normal red and blue layout for an all-green color scheme. Also, BUSINESS appears at the top of the shield instead of INTERSTATE, and either LOOP or SPUR may appear above the number. Business routes always have the same number as their parent. For example, U.S. 1 Business is a branch of U.S. Route 1 , and Business I-40 is a branch of Interstate 40 . In some states, a business route is designated by added the letter "B" after the number instead of placing a "Business" sign above it. Example, "US 71B" means "Business US 71". SEE ALSO
