Interstate 540 is a partially completed beltway around the city of Raleigh, North Carolina. It forms part of a loop designed to improve traffic flow and connect the outer suburbs to major highways. The highway is both a signed Interstate and a state-maintained route under the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT).

The road begins at I-40 in western Wake County near the Research Triangle Park and currently runs in a northeastern arc around the north side of Raleigh. It passes through or near communities such as Morrisville, North Raleigh, and Knightdale. The loop is being completed in segments, with some sections open and others still under construction or in planning.

The western and northern sections are signed as I-540, while the eastern and southern segments are part of the N.C. 540 designation. Much of the newer segments are toll roads, managed by the North Carolina Turnpike Authority, especially those comprising the Triangle Expressway.

The beltway provides connections to key roads such as U.S. Route 70, U.S. Route 1, I-87, and I-440, helping reduce congestion on the older I-440 loop closer to downtown Raleigh. Upon completion, I-540/N.C. 540 will form a full loop around the city, totaling over 70 miles in length.

NORTH CAROLINA - Story behind the Barstow, California sign.

On I-40 near Wilmington, an iconic sign for California returns. Well sort of...

It's been a while Barstow, California.

After several signs on Interstate 40 in New Hanover County indicating 2,554 miles to the road's end at the California city were stolen, another has emerged.

Recently, a sign was placed near the Murrayville Road overpass with "Barstow, Calif. 2,554" on it -- except now distances to far closer locales Benson and Raleigh are also included.

After the fourth sign to go up with only "Barstow, Calif. 2,554" on it was stolen, the N.C Separtment of Transportation said it would not make another replacement.

At I-40's western end, a "Wilmington, NC 2,554" sign is in Barstow.

I-40 remains one of the longest in the interstate system. Only two are longer: I-80 from San Francisco to Teaneck, New Jersey at 2,899.59 miles and I-90 from Seattle to Boston at 3,020.44.

While the local sign indicates Barstow at 2,554 miles, the official distance for I-40 is 2,556.61 miles, according to the Federal Highway Administration.

The last I-40 extension was completed in June 1990, which connected Raleigh to Wilmington.
