    What is the name of the longest highway in the United States?

    Question #54882. Asked by dadbubby. (Feb 06 05 5:36 PM)

    Seems to be US 20, running from Boston, Massachusetts to Newport Beach, Oregon. I couldn't find a name for it, as many have, but its distance is mentioned as 3365 miles.

    Interestingly, Route 6 used to be longer with 3652 miles.

    That was until 6 was shortened in '63. Read the end of my citation.

    This site says it in better detail. It also names it as a highway, which the other site doesn't specifically do. I wasn't sure, either.
