'''Interstate 35''' ('''I-35''') is a major [[Interstate Highway]] in the central [[United States]]. As with most primary Interstates that end in a five, it is a major cross-country, north–south route.

At {{convert|1568|mi|km}}, I-35 is the ninth-longest Interstate Highway following [[Interstate 94|I-94]], and it is the third-longest north–south Interstate Highway, following [[Interstate 75|I-75]] and [[Interstate 95|I-95]]. Even though the route is generally considered to be a [[Pan-American Highway|border-to-border highway]], this highway does not directly connect to either international border. I-35's southern terminus is the [[traffic signal]] at Hidalgo Street in Laredo, Texas, just short of the Mexican border. Travelers going south can take one of two toll bridges across the [[Rio Grande]] and the border, either straight ahead into the [[Juárez–Lincoln International Bridge]], or via [[Interstate 35 Business (Laredo, Texas)|Business Interstate 35-A]] (Bus. I-35-A) through downtown Laredo into the [[Gateway to the Americas International Bridge]]. To the north, I-35 terminates in Duluth, Minnesota, with connections to Canada from the Interstate's terminus via |
