Explanation:

In 1796, an improved all-weather road was opened for wagon and carriage travel.

The road was abandoned around 1840 (construction on the National Road after Vandalia, Illinois also stopping due to the Panic of 1837 and early railroad construction), although modern highways follow much of its route.
