Scenarios about 'interstate highway system'
The Interstate Highway System is a network of controlled-access highways in the United States established by the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1956 under President Eisenhower. This massive infrastructure project revolutionized American transportation, commerce, and culture by connecting major urban centers, facilitating suburbanization, and enhancing military mobility during the Cold War era.
