'Shortest' interstate off ramp

[SteveG1988]

Well, here's a honorable mention:
US 44 and I-84 in East Hartford; https://goo.gl/maps/nyvVZpwf24C2
Google says it's only 400 feet

Is it going to be all honourable mentions after my discovery?

Now, here is a true Honorable Mention.

Kentucky Parkways and their underpass toll booth ramps.

Ramp itself is long, but the merge area is extremely short. These will not be on i-69 when it is offically signed.

I always thought that was a smart idea for the old toll booths.

Until you realize what happens if you have high speed traffic and trucks converging on it. US 412 at Ponca City OK has that issue.

There's one in particular that looks exceptionally bad and hacked together.
346C: https://www.google.com/maps/@39.9276094,-75.1955628,3a,75y,319.09h,85.88t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sDfMUT_N2eqhZsQY06F0hMQ!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo3.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3DDfMUT_N2eqhZsQY06F0hMQ%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D20.377613%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i13312!8i6656

Holy schnikes!  That's shorter than the Mackinaw City exit on the first page of this thread!

That's the one I would have posted too.  I don't believe it could possibly be shorter and still be an "exit"

Yeah, that's definitely not built to interstate standards. Google directions show that ramp as being 256 feet, but it looks more like 200 ft or even less.

Imagine driving down down the avenue, and a car comes flying down from I-76 onto this...

Funny you should mention that cause a lot people use that as a bailout point as that's where one of the Schuylkill's infamous bottlenecks start.

Yeah, that kind of crap is just ridiculous. The only reason more crashes don't occur is due to low overall traffic levels. Such "cloverleaf transitions" would be disasters in busy, urban areas.

Check out this "cloverleaf transition" near Tacoma, WA. Similar length to your example: https://goo.gl/xitNpT

I-70/U.S. 40 eastbound  at Missouri Exit 37A (GSV or satellite view) near Odessa has a fairly long deceleration lane, but it ends in a 90° right turn which leads almost immediately to a STOP sign or YIELD sign at a frontage road running next to the eastbound lanes of I-70.

I think there used to be a Fireworks City store there, but am not sure.

 I-93 in New Hampshire specifically the parkway section has short ramps.

I thought the same. Though I also think Kentucky could've done something a little different at this one on the Blue Grass Pkwy

I don't know why the one in Mackinaw City even needs to be open with 108 there.

Huh?  You mean with M-108 NOT there?  It's been decommissioned for over 6 years now.

But either way you meant it, the reason for that exit is to get to the tourist attractions in the area, primarily Fort Michilimackinac.

There is a NB exit a few blocks before that.

The Indiana and Calzona ramps off I-5 in the East LA Interchange are quite short:

I call these "pinch ramps" because they look like they were pinched out of the side of the road.

I was wondering why the exit ramps on the Western Kentucky parkway were so short. Now that the tolls are all removed, they're unnecessarily abrupt.

Although in order to fix that, they'd need to re-toll them to pay for it....
