The loop freeways are not Interstates because they are funded by a 1/2 cent sales tax paid by county residents, not by Federal money. If these freeways had waited for inclusion in the Interstate system, they may have been delayed for years, or never been built at all. More information is at http://www.arizonaroads.com/urban/ .
