Did you mean mile marker 201? MM 181 is the west side of Marshalltown, which is totally an exit. Anyway, on one hand, there's a left hand turn lane, and on the other, it's grade separated. I see your point that it's not really an exit, but regardless it's where the business route begins and should

There are a few unreferenced sentences and paragraphs in the route description, a simple citation to a map would do here.

In the right hand sidebar, I note that U.S. 69 is not listed. Since all other U.S. highway junctions are mentioned, should this one be as well? Or is it omitted because its more urban that rural?
