^Looking west on Interstate 74 as it approaches Interstate 465, August 2023.
Interstate 74 runs roughly west-northwest to east-southeast across the middle of Indiana, connecting the Indianapolis area to Crawfordsville and Champaign-Urbana to the west, and to Cincinnati to the east. Interstate 74 exits Illinois heading east, after passing by Champaign-Urbana and Danville in Illinois, and it exits Indiana into Ohio near the southernmost point of the border they share. Interstate 74 provides an important link between Indianapolis and Cincinnati, which lies just beyond Indiana's border with Ohio.
