That wiki article calls the landing strip design an urban legend. I have heard separately that it is apocryphal.
A widespread urban legend states that one out of every five miles of the Interstate Highway System must be built straight and flat so as to be usable by aircraft during times of war. Contrary to popular lore, Interstate Highways are not designed to serve as airstrips.[41][42]
