Route description

History

SD 45 was established around 1927. The southern terminus was at the intersection of present-day SD 50 and County Road 49 (CR 49) and the northern terminus was at the intersection of SD 10 in Leola.

By 1932, it was extended south along what was part of SD 47 to Wheeler. By 1936, SD 45 was truncated at Kimball, at US 16, as US 281 supplanted the SD 45 designation to the south. In the early 1950s, when US 281 was relocated several miles to the east, SD 45 was extended back south to SD 50.

Around 1970, SD 50 had been realigned to intersect SD 44 west of Platte, and SD 45 was extended south along the old alignment to Platte, where it remains today.

The north end of the route has remained in its current configuration since 1936.

Interstate 29 (I-29) is an Interstate Highway in the Midwestern United States. I-29 runs from Kansas City, Missouri, at a junction with I-35 and I-70, to the Canada–US border near Pembina, North Dakota, where it connects with Manitoba Provincial Trunk Highway 75 (PTH 75), which continues on to Winnipeg. The road follows the course of three major rivers, all of which form the borders of US states. The southern portion of I-29 closely parallels the Missouri River from Kansas City northward to Sioux City, Iowa, where it crosses and then parallels the Big Sioux River. For the northern third of the highway, it closely follows the Red River of the North. The major cities that I-29 connects to includes Council Bluffs, Iowa; Sioux City, Iowa; Sioux Falls, South Dakota; Fargo, North Dakota; and Grand Forks, North Dakota. I-29 also serves as a road connection between the four largest public universities in the Dakotas: the University of North Dakota, North Dakota State University, the University of South Dakota, and South Dakota State University.
