A photo of the mesa over the twin tunnels on Interstate-80 at Green River, Wyoming. You can’t see the tunnels in this photo, they are just out of sight behind the semi truck on the left side of the photo. All these semi trucks are headed eastbound and most likely coming out of the Salt Lake City area, about 2.5 hours to the west.

The exit ramp from westbound I-80 to northbound I-35 was moved ¾ mile west as part of the ongoing reconstruction of the East Mixmaster. These signs were placed on wide trusses to accommodate widening of I-80 between the East Mixmaster and US 65 to four lanes in each direction, a project expected to be completed in 2027.
The new ramp to northbound I-35 will eventually split off to include a new flyover ramp to westbound I-235 to replace the existing left exit, but that ramp is unfunded as of this writing.
The diamond interchange of I-80 and 1st Avenue in Coralville was reconstructed into a diverging diamond in 2023 and 2024. Here is how the reconstructed interchange looks from eastbound I-80.
The new flyover ramp from eastbound I-80 to northbound I-35 opened November 21, 2024. I-35 and I-235 now share the same exit ramp from the right lane, hence the elimination of the 137A/B exit numbers for eastbound traffic. Two identical arrow-per-lane BGS, the second of which is shown here, have replaced the previous signage on eastbound I-80.
The I-235 westbound off-ramp from eastbound I-80 — which opened a year before the flyover ramp — splits from the northbound I-35 lanes underneath the Delaware Avenue overpass.
Here is how the reconstructed 1st Avenue looks at I-80, heading north from the Iowa City/Coralville visitors' center.
While IA 192 has been greened out of the sign in this 2015 photo, an IA 192 shield remains present on the northbound South Expressway as of August 2024.
Heading east, traffic exiting onto I-880 exits from the left lane. This marks the last mention of Omaha or any Nebraska city for eastbound traffic.
These shields leading traffic to each direction of I-29 and I-80 were put up on 30th Street by the summer of 2021 as reconstruction of I-29/80 was wrapping up. (Before reconstruction, trailblazer signs for I-29 south and I-80 east were posted on the signal arm in the background, as 30th turns into the on-ramp to the I-29/I-80 local lanes.)
The first overhead BGS on westbound I-80 in Council Bluffs, an advance sign for the Madison Avenue exit, also includes a distance sign for I-29 and Omaha.
Before 1991, the interchange of I-80 and the former IA 1 east of Iowa City — an extension of Rochester Avenue — was signed as "Local Road". Since then it has been signed as the Herbert Hoover Highway. New overhead signs were put up by the summer of 2024 as part of the widening of I-80 to six lanes between Iowa City and West Branch, along with a reconstruction of the Herbert Hoover Highway interchange in 2021 and 2022.
The Herbert Hoover Highway overpass was completely replaced as part of the interchange reconstruction project. The new overpass contains the Herbert Hoover Highway logo at both ends.
