The somewhat odd location of the OH 113 western end sign in downtown Bellevue (the details of which I have posted in the MW-GL Ohio thread)

Got some new stuff yesterday that I've been trying to capture for awhile but was always in difficult positions to photograph.


The scenic route "end" of CA 152 on Pacheco Pass:
I traveled on I-280 enough to know that it also has "end Scenic Route" signs at the county border of San Mateo and Santa Clara, but it's difficult to photograph while driving at freeway speeds. It's also more worn out than the sign in your photo. Maybe one day I'll use my signal booster as a phone cradle and record a video driving through.

The one I want a photo of is the error blue "end" placard at I-5 on CA 152 eastbound.  Apparently the scenic placard fell off long ago just leaving an assembly which might be mistaken as a route end point for CA 152.

Speaking of end placards, I have a couple fresh ones from today.

CA 223 with a weirdly shaped end placard over I-5.

Got a couple interesting ones, having committed to craziness enough to drive to the end of two small peninsulas in Michigan through the snow.

The Old Mission Peninsula north of Traverse City has the end of M-37.

The Leelenau Peninsula, comprising Leelenau County, has M-201 protruding northward toward Leelenau State Park, at the north end and home to a lighthouse.

And here's M-231 since it's a fresh new highway.

Avatar is the last interesting highway I clinched.

The M-37 end looks different than the last I saw it. It ends at a cul-de-sac I've never seen that road ends sign before.

It appears that Pennsylvania has a new style of welcome sign.

It does.  The road loops around toward the left to go start the southbound lane.  The photo was taken looking north just after the culdesac starts.

Some new ones from a trip I took over the weekend. It wasn't intended to be a road-related trip, but I had free time to burn so I made the most of it, even though it was hovering around freezing outside.

The north and south ends of MN-237, a ~2 mile long state route connecting the city of New Munich to I-94





The north end of MN-15 in Sartell/Sauk Rapids, as it merges into US-10 West



The northwest end of MN-95 about four miles east of St. Cloud. Not sure why there's a JCT tab above the MN-23 marker. Also, not sure why the traffic signal doesn't appear lit in the picture, because everything was working. (Something to do with electrical frequency and shutter timing, I'm guessing? The signal used really old school LED lamps.)



I also drove all of MN-238 on Friday, but there weren't END signs posted at either end. :-/

M-78 between Bellevue and Battle Creek, MI (at M-66)


I-194 in Battle Creek, MI (at I-94)


Peña Boulevard in Denver, CO (at I-70)

Two more END signs taken today:

The southern end of CO 91 in Leadville.

What comes at the end of 1-2-3? by Ryan busman_49, on Flickr

Ohio / ODOT is pretty good at installing END banners....

...Whereas Colorado/CDOT leaves more highways un-END-ed, sign-wise, than noted as such. In my neck of the woods, 4 route termini (CO-141 North, CO-65 North and both ends of CO-340) have no END signage, only the south terminus of CO-139 correctly has an END banner, and US-6 West in Mack is inaccurately signed with an END banner.

More END signs from my current trip:

Southwestern end of UT 128 at US 191 in Moab


Northern end of UT 313 at US 191 in Moab


Southeastern end of UT 222 at UT 113 in Midway


Northeastern end of UT 113 at US 40/189 in Heber City



Eastern end of ID 38 at I-15 in Malad

The END signs of MN-253 and 254. The north terminus of MN-253 did not have an END sign.

South END of MN-253 in Bricelyn



North END of MN-254 just north of the I-90 interchange



South END of MN-254 in Frost. The route formerly ran all the way to the Iowa border, continuing as IA-254. It was truncated to Frost in the 1980s after Iowa eliminated their route 254.
