Near its southern terminus, I-29 is concurrent with I-35 and U.S. Highway 71. The interstate diverts from 71 just north of St. Joseph and follows a sparsely populated corridor along the Missouri River to Council Bluffs. During the design phase there was an alternative sending the route further along 71 through the bigger towns of Maryville, Missouri and Clarinda, Iowa. During the Great Flood of 1993 the Missouri River flooded this section and traffic was rerouted to 71 through Maryville and Clarinda.
Almost all of I-29 in Missouri is an area called the Platte Purchase that was not originally part of Missouri when it entered the union.
Interstate 29 follows a corridor that is generally within 5 miles of the Missouri River throughout Iowa.
Interstate 29 begins near Hamburg. It goes northwest to an interchange with Iowa Highway 2, then goes north until Council Bluffs. In Council Bluffs, it runs concurrent with Interstate 80. It winds its way along the western and northern edges of Council Bluffs after separating from I-80. North of Council Bluffs, I-29 runs concurrent with Interstate 680 between Exits 61 and 71. After Interstate 680 separates, I-29 continues on a northwesterly path towards Sioux City. At Sioux City, Interstate 129 spurs off of I-29 to go west towards South Sioux City, Nebraska. After continuing towards downtown Sioux City on a northerly route, it turns west and exits into South Dakota.
Interstate 29 enters South Dakota at North Sioux City by crossing over the Big Sioux River. It runs northwest until its interchange with South Dakota Highway 50 near Vermillion, where it turns north. The highway alignment is due north until just before Sioux Falls. In the Sioux Falls area, I-29 serves the western part of Sioux Falls while I-229 spurs off and serves eastern Sioux Falls. In northwestern Sioux Falls, I-29 meets Interstate 90. After that, it continues north past Brookings. At the intersection with South Dakota Highway 28, I-29 turns northwest towards Watertown. After Watertown, the highway continues north and enters North Dakota north of Victor.
The South Dakota section of Interstate 29 is defined in South Dakota Consolidated Laws § 31-4-152.[1]
At its northern terminus, I-29 is concurrent with U.S. Highway 81.
I-29 and its successor in Manitoba, Highway 75 provide a direct route into Winnipeg.
