Topic: Missouri State Highway 77


  
  Missouri State Auditor's Office - 2000-
State's passenger plane fleet is too large, not suited to state flight needs and run by four agencies, which creates costly inefficiencies and inconsistent flight practices
This audit examined flights of the state's eight passenger planes operated by the Office of Administration (OA), Missouri State Highway Patrol, Department of Transportation (MoDOT), and the Department of Conservation.
In eight instances, Highway Patrol officials used state planes to fly state employees to attend funeral services for a patrol officer's parents, spouses, and siblings.

  List of Missouri highways - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
State highways in Missouri were first designated in 1922 and Missouri's system was used (along with Wisconsin's) as a plan for the entire U.S. Highway System which was created in 1926.
Missouri has also changed highway designations with a US highway or an interstate with the same number is designated through the state (Missouri State Highway 40 was redesignated Missouri State Highway 14 to avoid duplicating numbers with U.S. Highway 40 which also passes through the state).
State highways in Missouri are the responsibility of the Missouri Department of Transportation.

 Alaska - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alaska is the largest state in the United States in terms of land area (it is larger in area than all but 18 of the world's nations) at 570,374 square miles (1,477,261 km²), over twice as large as Texas, the next largest state.
Owing to the state's low population density, most of the land is located in the Unorganized Borough which, as the name implies, has no intermediate borough government of its own, but is administered directly by the state government.
The state capital, Juneau, is not accessible by road, which has spurred several debates over the decades about moving the capital to a city on the road system.

 Interstate Highway System at AllExperts
Missouri and Kansas have laid claims that I-70 in those states was the first interstate (Missouri also says I-44 is one of the first).
States must also meet minimum enforcement standards for all federally mandated legislation (for example, minimum penalties for violation of these laws and a minimum number of per capita underage drinking convictions or a compelling explanation regarding why this number is not met).
In most states, the exit numbers correspond to the mileage markers on the Interstates (with an exception being I-19 in Arizona, whose length is measured in kilometers instead of miles).
