Route description

Wyoming Highway 213 begins its south end at an interchange with Interstate 80/US 30 at exit 386, which is also the northern terminus of Wyoming Highway 214. Historically, WYO 213 turned west and traveled along the I-80 Service Road for half a mile before turning north onto Burns Road into Burns.[2] WYO 213 used to end at Burns, but was extended in 2009 north to U.S. Route 85,[3] seven miles south of Meriden.[1] Since 2012, Wyoming Highway 213 has been rerouted out of the Burns town center and over a $6.6 million railway overpass just east of the town, avoiding an at-grade crossing.[4][5]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Laramie County.
