Harrisburg, Pennsylvania - I-283

Notes

In Baltimore, I-83 is called the Jones Falls Expressway (JFX), from its origin at Pleasant Street to its connection with the Baltimore Beltway. From the Beltway north to the Pennsylvania state line, I-83 is called the Harrisburg Expressway.

Southbound I-83 has an exit for I-83 north (and I-695 east) just after splitting from Interstate 695.

The possibility of extending I-83 north to Rochester, New York instead of I-99 was discussed at the October 2002 I-99 Task Force meeting. However, part of the proposed route on US 11/US 15 has been recently rebuilt as a four lane surface road, which does not meet Interstate standards.http://www.aaroads.com/high-priority/corr09.html

At one point, I-83 was intended to intersect I-95 in Baltimore. This project, like the I-70 project, has been canceled.

Exit list

See Jones Falls Expressway for exits south of I-695. List is from south to north.
