▲'''Interstate 57''' ('''I-57''') is a north–south [[Interstate Highway]] in [[Missouri]] and [[Illinois]] that parallels the old [[Illinois Central Railroad]] for much of its route. It runs from [[Sikeston, Missouri]], at [[Interstate 55|I-55]] to [[Chicago, Illinois]], at [[Interstate 94|I-94]]. I-57 essentially serves as a shortcut route for travelers headed between the South ([[Memphis, Tennessee|Memphis]], [[New Orleans]], etc.) and Chicago, bypassing [[St. Louis, Missouri]] and [[Springfield, Illinois]]. Between the junction of I-55 and I-57 in Sikeston and the junction of I-55 and I-90/I-94 in Chicago, I-55 travels for {{convert|436|mi|km}}, while the combination of I-57 and I-94 is only {{convert|396|mi|km}} long between the same two points.

In the state of [[Missouri]], I-57 begins in [[Sikeston, Missouri|Sikeston]] at a [[cloverleaf interchange]] with [[Interstate 55 in Missouri|I-55]] as a continuation of [[U.S. Route 60 in Missouri|U.S. Route 60]] (US 60) and heads east. Entering [[Charleston, Missouri|Charleston]], the Interstate almost immediately interchanges with [[Missouri Route 105|Route 105]], with I-57 Business (I-57 Bus.) heading north with Route 105. Southeast of the city, it then turns to the northeast. To the east of Charleston, the US 60 concurrency ends after about {{convert|12|mi|km}} when I-57 meets [[U.S. Route 62 in Missouri|US 62]]/[[Missouri Route 77|Route 77]], with US 60 heading eastward and I-57 Bus. ending. I-57 eventually meets the Missouri–Illinois state line at the [[Mississippi River]], crossing the [[Cairo I-57 Bridge]] into [[Cairo, Illinois]].

I-57 is the longest Interstate Highway in the state of Illinois, spanning {{Convert|364.16|mi|km}} long with Chicago being the main city along its northern route and Memphis being the southern main city along its southern route. I-57 then enters Illinois across the [[Mississippi River]] into [[Cairo, Illinois|Cairo]]. It passes through [[Mounds, Illinois|Mounds]] and [[Ullin, Illinois|Ullin]], and then it makes an interchange with [[U.S. Route 51 in Illinois|US 51]], making US 51 depart from its temporary concurrency with the Interstate. I-57 then continues north and has an interchange with [[Interstate 24 in Illinois|I-24]] toward [[Nashville, Tennessee]]. It then continues to head toward [[Marion, Illinois|Marion]], [[West Frankfort, Illinois|West Frankfort]], [[Benton, Illinois|Benton]], [[Whittington, Illinois|Whittington]], and [[Ina, Illinois|Ina]] and then heads into [[Mount Vernon, Illinois|Mount Vernon]]. In Mount Vernon, I-57 has a short concurrency with [[Interstate 64 in Illinois|I-64]] while making two [[diamond interchange]]s with the city's streets. I-64 then leaves I-57 and continues its western route toward [[St. Louis, Missouri]], while I-57 continues toward [[Effingham, Illinois|Effingham]]. In Effingham, [[Interstate 70 in Illinois|I-70]] joins I-57 and makes interchanges with the city's streets once again. I-70 then departs from I-57 and continues east toward [[Terre Haute, Indiana|Terre Haute]] and [[Indianapolis]], Indiana. As for I-57, it continues and heads toward [[Mattoon, Illinois|Mattoon]] where it has a cloverleaf interchange with [[U.S. Route 45 in Illinois|US 45]] and then heads toward [[Champaign, Illinois|Champaign]] where it meets the terminus of [[Interstate 72 in Illinois|I-72]] in a cloverleaf interchange. It then travels for another {{Convert|2|mi|km|spell=in}} and then meets up with a soon to be changed from a cloverleaf interchange to a semi-directional interchange with [[Interstate 74|I-74]] going east toward Indianapolis (again) and west toward [[Bloomington, Illinois|Bloomington]]. The Interstate then heads toward [[Kankakee, Illinois|Kankakee]] and then into [[Cook County, Illinois|Cook County]] where it meets its own terminus with [[Interstate 94 in Illinois|I-94]] ending in [[Chicago]].
