(a) The State transportation agency, in consultation with responsible local officials, shall have the responsibility for proposing to the Federal Highway Administ
30、ration all official actions re-garding the designation, or revision, of the Federal-aid highway systems. (b) The routes of the Federal-aid highway systems shall be proposed by coordinated action of the State trans-portation agencies where the routes in-volve State-line connections. (c) The designati
31、on of routes on the Federal-aid highway systems shall be in accordance with the planning proc-ess required, pursuant to the provisions at 23 U.S.C. 135, and, in urbanized areas, the provisions at 23 U.S.C. 134(a).

For designation as a part of the Intersta
35、te system, 23 U.S.C. 103(c)(4)(A) requires that a highway meet all the standards of a highway on the Interstate System, be a logical ad-dition or connection to the Interstate System, and have the affirmative rec-ommendation of the State or States in-volved. For designation as a future part of the In
36、terstate System, 23 U.S.C. 103(c)(4)(B) requires that a highway be a logical addition or connection to the Interstate System, have the affirma-tive recommendation of the State or States involved, and have the written agreement of the State or States in-volved that such highway will be con-structed t
37、o meet all the standards of a highway on the Interstate System within twenty-five years of the date of the agreement between the FHWA Ad-ministrator and the State or States in-volved. Such highways must also be on the National Highway System. (c) Routes proposed for Interstate designation under sect
38、ion 332(a)(2) of the NHS Designation Act of 1995 (NHS Act) shall be constructed to Interstate standards and connect to the Inter-state System. Proposals shall consider the criteria contained in appendix B of this subpart. (d) Proposals for Interstate route numbering shall be submitted by the State t
39、ransportation agency to the Route Numbering Committee of the American Association of State High-way and Transportation Officials. (e) Signing of corridors federally des-ignated as future Interstate routes can follow the criteria contained in appen-dix C of this subpart. No law, rule, reg-ulation, ma
40、p, document, or other record of the United States, or of any State or political subdivision thereof, shall refer to any highway under 23 U.S.C. 103(c), nor shall any such high-way be signed or marked, as a highway on the Interstate System until such time as such highway is constructed to the geometr
41、ic and construction stand-ards for the Interstate System and has been designated as a part of the Inter-state System. 62 FR 33355, June 19, 1997, as amended at 76 FR 6691, Feb. 8, 2011 470.113 National Highway System procedures.

45、actions involving the des-ignation, or revision, of routes on the Interstate System, including route numbers, future Interstate routes, and routes on the National Highway Sys-tem. (b) The Federal Highway Adminis-trator will approve functional classi-fication actions. APPENDIX A TO SUBPART A OF PART
46、470GUIDANCE CRITERIA FOR EVALU-ATING REQUESTS FOR INTERSTATE SYSTEM DESIGNATIONS UNDER 23 U.S.C. 103(c)(4)(A) AND (B) Section 103(c)(4)(A) and (B), of title 23, U.S.C., permits States to request the des-ignation of National Highway System routes as parts or future parts of the Interstate Sys-tem. Th
47、e FHWA Administrator may approve such a request if the route is a logical addi-tion or connection to the Interstate System and has been, or will be, constructed to meet Interstate standards. The following are the general criteria to be used to evaluate 23 U.S.C. 103(c) requests for Interstate System
48、 designations. 1. The proposed route should be of suffi-cient length to serve long-distance Inter-state travel, such as connecting routes be-tween principal metropolitan cities or indus-trial centers important to national defense and economic development. 2. The proposed route should not duplicate o
49、ther Interstate routes. It should serve Interstate traffic movement not provided by another Interstate route. 3. The proposed route should directly serve major highway traffic generators. The term major highway traffic generator means ei-ther an urbanized area with a population over 100,000 or a similar major concentrated land use activity that produces and attracts long-distance Interstate and statewide travel of persons and goods.
