Interstate 20
Kent, TX to Florence, SC
I-20 spans 1,535 miles across the Deep South from western Texas through Abilene, Dallas, Shreveport, Jackson, Birmingham, and Atlanta to South Carolina. It is a key southern corridor for freight connecting Gulf Coast ports, the Dallas hub, and southeastern manufacturing and distribution centers. The route is generally flat with moderate traffic and manageable weather, making it one of the lower-risk transcontinental corridors, though summer thunderstorms and occasional ice events in the Texas Panhandle and Mississippi can disrupt operations.
