Interstate 180 (abbreviated '''I-180''') is a spur off Interstate 80 into downtown Cheyenne , Wyoming .

It is unusual for being the only Interstate Highway that is not up to Interstate Highway Standards (and not even a Freeway ) anywhere on its route. The only grade separations being a standard Diamond Interchange at its southern end at I-80, and a bridge over the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. It is a Divided at-grade Expressway with a 40 mph (60 km/h) Speed Limit due to the frequency of signals. There are five Traffic Signal s along I-180. This is nowhere near Interstate standards, but it received Federal Funding under the Interstate Highway program. Map Aerial photo
