'''Interstate&nbsp;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[[Southern U.S.]] ([[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 [[Interstate 90|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 fact, both the control cities on the overhead signs and the destination mileage signs reference Memphis along southbound I-57, even as far north as its northern origin at I-94 in Chicago.<ref name="AASHTO-Control">{{cite web |url = https://traffic.transportation.org/interstate-control-cities/ |author = American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials |author-link = American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials |title = Interstate Control Cities |publisher = American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials |access-date = July 10, 2021 |archive-date = June 24, 2021 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20210624115241/https://traffic.transportation.org/interstate-control-cities/ |url-status = live }}</ref> Likewise, at its southern end, Chicago is the control city listed for I-57 on signs on northbound I-55 south of Sikeston, even though I-55 also goes to Chicago.<ref>{{cite sign |author = Missouri Department of Transportation |author-link = Missouri Department of Transportation |date = n.d. |url = https://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;source=embed&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=Sikeston,+MO&amp;aq=&amp;sll=37.0625,-95.677068&amp;sspn=49.757664,72.246094&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=Sikeston,+Scott,+Missouri&amp;ll=36.891441,-89.538412&amp;spn=0.012377,0.017638&amp;z=14&amp;layer=c&amp;cbll=36.868649,-89.532819&amp;panoid=0Z2ZZ1_-w7dPikS9uHF06g&amp;cbp=12,5.96,,0,14.23 |title = Exit 64A sign |medium = Highway guide sign |location = Sikeston |publisher = Missouri Department of Transportation |access-date = April 4, 2012 }}</ref> A southward extension of I-57 from its current southern terminus to [[Little Rock, Arkansas]], is currently in various stages of development.

=== Missouri ===
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]].
[[Image:Cairo I-57 Bridge 1997.jpg|thumb|left|Cairo I-57 bridge between Missouri and Illinois]]
In the state of [[Missouri]], I-57 runs northbound from Sikeston to the [[Cairo I-57 Bridge]] over the [[Mississippi River]] north of [[Cairo, Illinois]].
 
=== Illinois ===
After ending southbound at [[Interstate 55 (Missouri)|I-55]], the highway continues as [[U.S. Route 60 (Missouri)|U.S. Route 60]] (US 60), which meets [[U.S. Route 67 (Missouri)|US 67]] at [[Poplar Bluff, Missouri|Poplar Bluff]], and, from there, US 67 goes south to [[Little Rock, Arkansas]].

Interstate 57 starts at a [[Cloverleaf interchange]] in [[Sikeston, Missouri]]. As it heads north, it has one business route which lies entirelyrely with of Charleston, MO. Interstate 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 U.S US 51 depart from its temporary concurrency with the interstateInterstate.

In Mt.Mount Vernon, Interstate I-57 has a short concurrency with [[Interstate 64 in Illinois|I-64]] while making two [[diamond interchangesinterchange]]s with the city's streets. Interstate I-64 then leaves Interstate I-57 and continues its western route towardstoward [[St. Louis, Missouri]], while Interstate I-57 continues towardstoward [[Effingham, Illinois|Effingham]]. In Effingham, [[Interstate 70 joinsin InterstateIllinois|I-70]] joins I-57 and makes interchanges with the city's streets once again. [[Interstate I-70]] then departs from Interstate I-57 and continues east towardstoward [[Terre Haute, Indiana|Terre Haute]] and [[Indianapolis]], Indiana. As for Interstate I-57, it continues and heads towardstoward [[Mattoon, Illinois|Mattoon]] where it has a cloverleaf interchange with [[U.S. Route 45 in Illinois|US 45]] and then heads towardstoward [[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 miles,|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 towardstoward Indianapolis (again) and west towardstoward [[Bloomington, Illinois|Bloomington]].
