I-29 End to End: States, Miles and Mile Markers

Measured state by state, I-29 runs 752 miles south to north from Kansas City, Missouri to Pembina, North Dakota, crossing 4 states. Its longest stretch is 253 miles across South Dakota; its shortest is 129 miles in Missouri.

State Miles Share Cities and mile markers
Missouri 129 17% Kansas City 0
Iowa 152 20% Sioux City 148
South Dakota 253 34% Sioux Falls 80 · Watertown 178
North Dakota 218 29% Fargo 66 · Grand Forks 141

Mile markers count from each state's southern line and start again at the next one, which is how most states number their exits as well. They are measured along the same road geometry these pages draw, so they land within a mile or two of the posted markers. A toll road that runs its own continuous numbering is the exception — on the New York Thruway the posts continue from New York City — and there the figure is how far into the state the place is rather than the number on the sign. Distances are measured state by state, never across a gap.
