A view of Lake Pend Oreille from US 10A (now SH-200)
In Idaho, US 10A went through Bonner County and the town of Sandpoint. In Sandpoint, US 10A intersected US 95. At the intersection, US 195 terminated, and US 10A would follow the shore of Lake Pend Oreille, serving the communities of Hope and Clark Fork before entering Montana.
1947 rerouteedit
After its reroute in 1947, US 10A started in Coeur d'Alene concurrent with US 95. It would follow US 95 north to Sandpoint. At the intersection with US 2, US 10A spilt from US 95 and went east toward Clark Fork.
In Montana, the route would then follow through rural northwestern Montana and the towns of Plains and Thompson Falls parallel to the Clark Fork and Flathead rivers. It then intersected US 93 in Ravalli. It then ran concurrently with US 93 south to Wye, where US 10A ended at Desmet Junction intersecting US 10 and US 93.
Historyedit
This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (October 2020)
US 10A was formed in 1941 as an alternate route of US 10 going through northwestern Montana, northern Idaho, and central Washington. In Washington, it would follow the former route of US 10 through Stevens Pass before it was rerouted in 1939.[4] It served as an artery to isolated communities in those states, such as Clark Fork, Idaho; Plains, Montana; as well as several small towns in central Washington. It also replaced MT 3.[5]
In 1946, representatives of the highway departments of Idaho and Washington proposed an extension of US 2 to Everett that was considered by the American Association of State Highway Officials's U.S. Route Numbering Committee in January 1946; however, the committee vetoed the proposal. The proposal resurfaced during the committee's meeting on December 20, 1946, and US 2 was approved as a replacement for US 10A from Everett to Sandpoint and US 195 from Spokane to Newport; however, US 195 would remain on road maps in Washington until at least 1951.[6] In 1947, following the extension of US 2, US 10A was rerouted to start in Coeur d'Alene along US 95.
US 10A was decommissioned as US 10 itself was being replaced by I-90.
US 10A was decommissioned in 1967, as its parent route, US 10, was being replaced by Interstate 90 (I-90). After its decommissioning, the states of Idaho and Montana had replaced the former US 10A route with state highways. Montana renumbered MT 20, which had already been routed on US 10A by 1956,[5] to MT 200. Idaho established SH-200 to replace US 10A a year later. Both highways were a part of a series of similarly numbered routes in Minnesota and North Dakota with the end goal being a unified federal designation.[7]
