Erroneous road signs

[WillWeaverRVA]

This horrific...thing...has appeared at Brambleton and Park Avenues in Norfolk, VA near I-264. Not just erroneous (VA 460?), but it might also qualify for "worst of" with its misshapen shields and Clearview digits. Street View is as of last month, the other signs at the intersection are a little more correct (i.e., they say US 460).

I-66 eastbound past the interchange with VA-234 south: https://goo.gl/maps/uAddNU6HRE62
While there is an HOV lane on I-66 here, it's the left lane instead of the right, and it surely does not end at this point.

Take off the HOV banner and it correctly refers to the right-hand merge lane which is ending at this point.

Follow the map back. That right-hand lane came from what appears to be a dedicated HOV entrance ramp.

Yep - that ramp starts here, in this park-n-ride: https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7964308,-77.5629109,17z/data=!3m1!1e3 .  While the sign is technically correct, I'm not sure there's any real reason why they need to inform motorists the right lane that's ending is also a HOV lane.

I found these PA 22 shields in Fredericksburg as seen from PA 343 SB (coming south from I-78 Exit 6)

Anyone from the Corridor H meet snap a pic of the MD-219 shield in Oakland?  I didn't; I was driving.

Yesterday I found error PA 11/PA 15 shields put in place for the US 11/US 15 detour for the current closure between I-81 and Marysville.  This is on PA 230 WB before US 22 WB turns onto Cameron St.  All of the other shields I saw for the detour were correct.

I saw PA 11/15 shields on I-81 SB at its interchange with said routes.

There are more on the old 22 east of Fredericksburg as the bypass rejoins it.

All the photos I took on I-81 SB showed correct shields.  I did not take the approaches from I-81 or US 11/US 15 NB though.

Are you referring to the current detour signage for the Exit 16 (Midway) closure? (in the area from Exit 13 (PA 501) to Exit 19 (PA 183))  I am unsure of where you are specifically speaking of.

Here is an OH 127 shield instead of a U.S. 127 shield in Hamilton, OH:

Here we go.  This is US-219, not MD-219:

I thought it was on I-81, but it was definitely somewhere around that interchange.

When 22 was rebuilt through the area a couple of years ago it was this sign assembly that was replaced, featuring PA 22 shields, though the street view is too old to show it. I think I have a picture but don't have it handy right now.

This sign may seem in order, but its location is not at all along the said Business Loop.

Sign is on W Bound US 84 between Ashley and Patterson Streets  in front of the County CH in Valdosta, GA and is visible on GSV.  However if it had a SOUTH directional on it, it would not be erroneous as after the next signal the SB BL comes in from the right and continues ahead.

NB on US 11/15 north of Selinsgrove, PA, as the routes split off. Not much apparently wrong with it... until you realize that the routes' directions are backwards! 15 continues straight while 11 turns off, shown correctly on the BGSes farther up the road.

That's...really, really, really bad.

Wis 76 south at US 10.  The signs are erroneously signed as Wis 10.

Seen in the parking garage at the Franconia—Springfield Metrorail station. The error might be a bit subtle to some folks.

June Threeth?  Really?

Well, this *is* WMATA we're talking about here...

[noelbotevera]

After 2013 the US 30/PA 234 intersection had the signs replaced for...reasons. So it had the first branch route of US 34, US 234! While US 30 had the correct shield.

The digits for the dates look like they may have been written at a different time (a darker black).  So I wonder if it might have originally had a correctly-spelled date range on it, and whoever edited it just erased the numbers and didn't think to change the TH.

Almost certainly. Nothing else makes any sense. No moron would intentially write 3th.

This sort of nonsense is why I try to avoid using the ordinal indicator, instead writing something like, "June 13" or, more often, "13 June". Same for street names, "5385 216 St, Langley".
