Interstate 29 (I-29) in the U.S. state of North Dakota runs from the state's southern border with South Dakota near Hankinson to the Canada–United States border just north of Pembina. The highway shares two concurrencies with U.S. Route 81 (US 81). The first begins in Watertown, South Dakota and remains concurrent with I-29 across the state line to Manvel. The other is from exit 203 to the Canada–US border. The highway runs somewhat parallel to the Minnesota border to the east and passes through two major cities, Fargo and Grand Forks.
Interstate 29 enters North Dakota, with a speed limit of 75 miles per hour, from South Dakota to the south, travelling in a north-northeasterly direction. The first exit in the state, exit 1, is to a county road built along the state line. This exit serves the Dakota Magic Casino and Hotel. Rural exits are somewhat common in North Dakota. There are exits with no major communities near them about every eight miles from the South Dakota border to Fargo. There is also one exit serving ND 11 to Hankinson and one exit serving ND 13 to Wahpeton, North Dakota.
