Alright, I'm bored, so here's some more backtracks. This time, Minnesota county roads.

Anoka CR-54, where it intersects CR-23 immediately west of the I-35/MN-97 interchange in Columbus. February 26, 2017.



And the end of Anoka CR-23, at that same intersection, with the interchange ahead. February 26, 2017.



Becker CR-47, which exists opposite of MN-225 at MN-34 near the town of Osage. May 13, 2017.


Eth

And here's another I-785, this one at the I-85/I-40 split:


MNHighwayMan

Three more from Becker County. These are all county roads that intersect MN-225 in some fashion, taken on May 13, 2017.

CR-26. This is the westward continuation from MN-225's west end in Ponsford.



CR-44



CR-156

786 is up.

Just one from me - SR 786 in Royal Palm Beach, Florida:


FL 29 in Miles City - a lonely spot:


Missouri Highway 30 in St. Louis:

MNHighwayMan

One more from Becker County: CR-129E, which intersects the point where MN-225 turns into CR-26, May 13, 2017. I did not investigate where or even whether there was a 129W (looking at Google Maps, I can't find one nearby, and this road is only labeled as CR-129 on there anyway.)



Beltrami CR-3 and Clearwater CR-17, with the junction with US-2 behind. July 16, 2018. Only the second time I've seen a road running along a county line being signed by both counties (and with different numbers, to boot!)



Beltrami CR-50, at a junction with MN-197 in Bemidji. July 21, 2018. This is a former routing of US-2, turned county road when the freeway bypass of the city opened.


Jim

US 29 on January 2, 2010, comes through again for a Virginia Secondary 786.



And I can also add a Florida 786, this one from Florida's Turnpike.  July 18, 2016.

Beltrami CR-501/Clearwater CR-98, which is the unpaved version on the south side of US-2, opposite CR-3/17 above. July 16, 2018.



Beltrami CR-515. July 16, 2018.



Benton CR-8, at one of three (!) places where it intersects MN-23. This is the easternmost of those, which is at the same place where MN-95 ends (at the junction behind the picture). March 24, 2018.


Truvelo

Viriginia secondary state route 777 taken from US 58.

Speed limits limit life

#4644
A concurrency of county roads! Cass CR-7 and 54, at MN-84 on the south end of Longville. July 19, 2018.



Cass CR-8 at its south end, where MN-84 terminates at MN-200. July 19, 2018. (Side note: IMO, Cass CR-8 is an all-too-logical extension of MN-84 northward to US-2. I'm not altogether sure why 84 ends at MN-200.)



Cass CR-44, which serves as a shortcut/bypass of Pine River from NB MN-371 to NB MN-84 and vice versa SB. This picture is at the north end of CR-44, where it intersects MN-84. July 19, 2018.

787 is next...

I'll offer a different view, but also from New York 7 for I-787 and New York 787.  April 24, 2006.

Cass CR-169, which is a frontage road for US-2 in Cass Lake. July 19, 2018.



Chisago CR-22 near where it intersects both I-35 and the northern terminus of US-61 in Wyoming. February 26, 2017.



Chisago CR-30 at US-61 in Wyoming. This is the former alignment of US-61. February 26, 2017.

National collection status: 361/425. Only 64 route markers remain

MNHighwayMan

As a courtesy to those who have current numbers to play, we can advance to 788 now.

In the mean time, here's three county routes from Clearwater County, all three of which connect to MN-223 in some fashion. July 16, 2018.

CR-2, which connects to MN-223 just south of Leonard and continues southward.



CR-10, which is the continuing route from MN-223's east terminus.



CR-18, which is the westward continuation from MN-223's west terminus at MN-92.
