The U.S. 36 Highway Association is an organization of over 500 dues-paying members in cities along the U.S. 36 corridor, from Indianapolis to Denver and Estes Park, Colorado, whose common objectives are promotion of travel on U.S. 36, the general improvement of that highway and promotion of the economic well-being of the communities and enterprises along its route.

U.S. Highway 36 extends from east of Indianapolis to Denver and Estes Park, terminating in the Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. It serves all of the municipalities along this distance in Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, and Colorado. The commerce amount the cities along this route is the life-blood of these communities. We cannot expect the economy of any community to prosper and grow unless neighbors along this highway have first-class access to our markets.

In promotion of better roads, the Association has as one of its prime objectives the advancement of business, agriculture, tourism, and commercial interests of the cities and counties along U.S. 36. We believe that the highway and economic development along it are inseparable. The course of civilization is correlated to the routes of commerce and transportation -- and because of our Midway U.S.A. location, U.S. 36 can provide one of the nation's finest highways and become the central point of progress for our communities.
