OK one for June 26, 2017.  Signage that was originally put up for something "more grand" such as an expressway that was never completed.

I-710 (then CA 7 when this sign was made) was never completed to Pasadena, and these signs definitely date to when it was still planned to. That being said, Pasadena is still the control city for the 710 to this day.

I-384 (Former I-84) was once going to go to Providence, but has long since been canceled.

True even if the SR is related to the Interstate (e.g. I-95 and NJ 495)? And how about US routes?

I meant only Interstate/Interstate pairs, only in an effort to make it slightly more challenging. I-95 and NJ-495 is allowed.

Looking for some larger multiples of 100.  The largest I could track down from TM data is US 12 and Indiana 912, but I don't have a picture.  There are also some 800's and 700's, but again, I have none of those.  My best is this difference of 600:

Arizona, Indiana and Florida ought to be good sources of content for this challenge, I think.

Missouri too; off the top of my head US 71 and MO 371 and US 50 and MO 350 come to mind (don't think I have pics though).

In case anyone else wants to look for higher multiples of 100 for the differences, here are the 600, 700, and 800 differences known to TM.  The largest difference is the 912-12=900 in Indiana I mentioned earlier in the thread.

Edit: removed the ineligible I-94/I-694.  TM did not detect some others (like I-90/I-890) since the waypoints don't line up because of the Thruway's toll booth ramp configurations.

I suppose it is but that's not what was meant by the spirit of the challenge.

Challenge: Post route shields for state highways having the same number as an unrelated 3-digit Interstate.

This would exclude routes that are related to 3dis, such as NJ 495, NY 390/590/481, etc. Also excluded are non-Interstate routes that function as an auxiliary to a 2di, such as CA 905.
