 U.S. Route 180 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As of 2004, the highway's eastern terminus is in Hudson Oaks, Texas (west of Fort Worth, near Weatherford) at an intersection with Interstate 20.
Its western terminus is unclear; though signage at an intersection 40 miles (64 km) northwest of Flagstaff, Arizona indicates that the route ends at Arizona State Highway 64, many maps continue the US 180 designation to the south rim of the Grand Canyon (at Grand Canyon Village, Arizona).
The intersection with eastbound Interstate 40/U.S. Route 89 is two miles to the east, and the intersection with westbound Interstate 40 and with Interstate 17 is three miles to the southwest.

 Bush budget short on state aid
A few years ago, states faced unprecedented budget shortfalls and needed federal help, but now states are in better shape financially while the federal government “is not in a position to help out states as much as before," Leavitt said.
Congress cut or eliminated 89 of the 154 programs Bush targeted for savings last year, and several of the survivors -- such as loans for low-income college students -- are back in the crosshairs this year.
Overall, grant funding to state and local governments would decrease, although not by as much as Bush proposed last year, said Iris Lav, deputy director of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a Washington, D.C.-based group that focuses on policies that affect the poor.
