Title: The 1-2-3 Interstate Highway Shield Challenge
Post by: Henry on April 03, 2017, 09:46:48 AM
Inspired by other countless 1-2-3 sign threads, I've decided to give this one a try. Basically this serves the same purpose as the others in that we will try to find every instance of an Interstate sign that exists. (i.e., if someone were to post I-295, then the next number must be posted, even though it is several numbers away) Errors, former, future and H-series routes do count; you may also use either state-named or neutered shields, and we need only one state for the example you posted. You must wait at least 48 hours or five pictures (whichever comes first) before posting another one, except if no one does so within that timeframe, you may continue as normal with the next number. However, no fakes, website-generated routes, drawings or hyperlinks (except to Google Maps) will be allowed.

Now that we're set, I will begin the honors with H-1:

I take it not many people have been to Oahu.

Here's an I-4

I think it's more of sign challenge thread saturation then people not having been to Oahu...

Maybe if the thread was more challenging, say perhaps find a state named shield for each state which the current number passes through (or a neutered shield if it's through Ohio, Oregon, etc.), then perhaps it might be a bit more interesting.

I've been posting an example of every Interstate I have in the Take-it-yourself Challenge thread (up to 220 so far, the highest number with an I route that we've reached), so I have been sitting this one out.  Maybe others will still find this one interesting, but it doesn't seem to have caught on just yet.

Also, shouldn't I-2 (not just I-H2) have been posted before moving on to I-H3?

Post by: Henry on April 12, 2017, 12:33:34 PM
We could just beat around the bush for this, but for the sake of simplicity, I clearly stated that one state is needed for the example posted. For example, there are many I-405s, I-295s, I-110s, etc., but to try to list all instances of each number would prove tedious, and state-named shields are not as common as they once were. So now that I-5 has been posted, the next number in the sequence would be I-8, and after that, I-10. And as for I-2 coming before H-3, maybe there is a point in that, but the point is moot now.

Tedious, but a bit more challenging. Outside of say I-110 in Texas, there's not much that is hard to find or photograph in the Interstate system.

Might as well race this along so we can get to the 3di's, when things get more interesting.  I would argue toward finding each instance of every 3-digit number used (i.e. having to post all I-405's from California, Washington, AND Oregon), but I'm not the boss.

Here is I-12

We can't do Interstate 14 (https://www.interstate-guide.com/i-014.html) just yet.  I don't believe there are even any FUTURE INTERSTATE 14 signs yet posted.

So, here's I-15:

Oops, my bad. I had forgotten about I-129, even though I have it clinched (and using it remains my only foray into Nebraska.)

So go with my Kansas I-135 sign from there and move ahead.

No worries.  I'm 100% this isn't the first time we'll skip past something by mistake.

I think it's time for the I-140's.  I have TN's, we need NC's too.

Off topic, but I've always wondered what they do with those signs at groundbreaking/grand opening ceremonies. I remember when one of the parts of MN-610 was just getting started on construction they had a groundbreaking and there was a 36" MN-610 sign behind it all. My first thought on seeing that picture was "that'd be a really cool sign to add to my collection."

That makes sense I guess, especially if you're going to go through the cost and materials of making an actual, real sign and not a replica.

Random rules clarification...and not exactly needed for I-184, either...

Since we have gone with shields from repeated 3di route numbers...

I assume that when a single 3di route traverse multiple states, that only 1 shield from the route is needed? Such as already covered I-129 in IA/NE, or I-155 in MO/TN?

You are absolutely correct. Only one shield for that is needed. Granted, there'll be plenty of others, like I-275 in OH/KY and I-495 in MD/VA, but we just need one example of those routes.

Moving on with I-184:

Yup, had family that lived in Phenix City, AL. Had to make sure with the parents that was the actual spelling if mailing something

Another finer point on the rules, for when we get there: Is I-265 in the Louisville metro now considered one Interstate route, or still gapped? The route is now complete across the Ohio, but it is not signed on the new segment (yet). I am not sure if a similar situation exists elsewhere

Still gapped. Kentucky's portion north of I-71 is signed only as KY 841, and Indiana's portion between the river and I-65 is still signed IN 265.

I would expect application to be made to AASHTO/FHWA at some point, and I really think Kentucky should drop KY 841 and extend I-265 west to 841's end at US 31W/US 60.

I am aware that I-265 is still officially gapped in terms of signage/designation, as its not signed over the new approach roads to the East End/Lewis and Clark River Bridge on both sides of the Ohio, or to put it another way, between I-71 in KY and I-65 in IN.

I was more thinking in the interest of the sign game here...when we get there (still a ways to go), should I-265 (KY/IN) be treated as one route, and only need one shield, or two separate I-265s, and therefore need an Indiana I-265 shield and a Kentucky I-265 shield

Its also the only 3di I can think of off the top of my head, that presents a situation like this, where a previously gapped multi-state 3di has had the gap physically closed, but the completed Freeway/Toll Bridge (in this case) has not yet been approved to sign it as one continuous 3di

I also have California's if we get into a jam.

That interchange is now undergoing a major construction project, and I believe that ramp to 215 is now closed. All the signs in that area have been replaced, with signs that have state named Interstate shields.
The only sad part is, the last two button copy signs on I-80 in Utah are now gone. They were on I-80 west just before the I-215 exit.

Also, that’s not I-80, that’s the Foothill Drive ramp to the 215/80 interchange.

Now we need the one in Louisville.

Also, a warning about I-265 in the area: Since it's not signed continuously (as of this month), we will need photos from both the KY and IN sides. AFAIK, it'll be the only multi-state 3di in this game to require two photos instead of one because of this oddity.

Since it's a single route in the two states, I assumed we were doing what we did with previous numbers (155, 255, probably others) and representing each instance of a route once, even if that route spans multiple states.  I think 265 was an exception since it's intended as a single route, but the Indiana and Kentucky parts are not yet a single, signed route.

I-265 KY/IN didn't use to actually be a single route, and was 2 separate routes, fully in KY and IN. The physical route is now bridged (literally and figuratively) to be one route, from I-64 in New Albany, IN to I-65 in southern Louisville, KY, but not yet signed I-265 across the new sections that include the new Ohio River bridge and a tunnel in KY

Now, that being said, do we have to go back and do a 2nd I-95 now? :P Since that isn't even a single, continuous route! Looking at you, New Jersey! And a little bit at PA, but really, its NJ's fault...

Not to mention, the various gaps in I-49 and I-69, as they are being built

We only needed one pic for the various multi-state 2di's and 3di's, with there being exceptions, namely, those with gaps that may eventually be filled (see I-69, I-74 and I-265) and those that exist in different parts of the country (I-76, I-84, I-86 and I-88). So now that we have that out of the way, let's continue with the first of four I-275s, the one around Cincinnati:
(https://www.aaroads.com/midwest/indiana050/us-050_eb_at_i-275_in-001.jpg)
And coincidentally, that's a multi-state 3di, as noted on the BGS, but since it's all a continuous loop in three states (OH, KY and IN), we can move on to the other three (Tampa Bay, Knoxville, Detroit).

I think my favorite in IL is I-55 and I-80 at their interchange, simply for being consistently inconsistent

Controls for I-80: Indiana and Iowa
Controls for I-55: Saint Louis and Chicago

Chicago, obviously. But if you are using Indiana and Iowa for I-80, why not Missouri for I-55 Southbound? Or, if you are using St Louis for I-55, why not Gary or South Bend and Des Moines for I-80?

I think the "Indiana" is a quasi-abbreviation of "Indiana Toll Road" because it technically doesn't serve any big cities in Indiana. It kind of skirts around Gary, South Bend, and Elkhart. Whereas I-55 SB serves Bloomington-Normal and Springfield before it gets to St Louis.

Not saying I agree with the signing method, just trying to rationalize it.

I propose we also allow a better Maine example, since the one posted is small and blurred.

You got that right, and here it is:

Don't even bother looking for I-315, so the next number in line, IIRC, is I-335.

Yet we're skipping over another unsigned 3di, this time being I-345, so I-355 would be the next signed entry. It looks like there aren't as many routes in the 300s as there are in the 200s and 100s!

At one point, the I-355 BGS on I-55 with the Control City of "Suburbs" was my facebook profile pic...a long time ago

Whether it was IDOT or ISTHA, someone figured out that using "Suburbs" as a Control City, at the intersection of 2 Interstates, in the Outer Southwest Suburbs, was a bad idea. I think the same signs are still up, just with no Control Cities anymore. If memory serves, an article either in the Daily Herald or Chicago Tribune basically roasted the agencies for a completely meaningless Control of "Suburbs"

I know I could find a copy of that same pic elsewhere, but I'll check and see if I can't dig up the one from the mid 2000s...

Oh, don't get me started.  It blows my mind that IDOT/ISTHA will refuse to use actual suburban places as control cities.  The use of "suburbs" is so stupid I KNOW I'M ALREADY IN THE SUBURBS YA DINGUS lol.  Use the towns near the Interstate junction, just like, idk, every other metro area does?  It's okay to call out Downers Grove, Schaumburg, Bolingbrook, etc.  Just do it lol

Edit:  I realized I have the next number!  I'll choose this photo because I'm trying to watch my weight, if you catch my drift.

I-359, Tuscaloosa.  There are signs posted for I-369 in Texarkana, FYI.

I think I have seen "Outer" and "Inner" on the Capital Beltway/I-495 before, actually signed on Reassurance Shields...could be wrong, tho. Been a bit since I've driven around DC

An "Inner" example: https://goo.gl/maps/mgikFdEmc6K2

They're all over I-277 in Charlotte, NC, as well. Here's one example. https://goo.gl/maps/7kCBQ1jtGHq

I'm assuming no-one has an image of I-878...

Maybe not, but I'm sure someone has an I-840 (TN) and an I-865, which we still need.

Once we get the other I-840, which I have only as Tennessee 840, I can do I-865.

I've got to post I-890, second closest interstate to me.  And the only interstate I know of that has Amsterdam as a control city.  This is from New York 337 in Rotterdam.  December 21, 2002.

I-980 in California.  Then 985 and 990 and we're done.

It's been a few days, so I'll go again.  Here's I-980.  February 20, 2006.

I've also got the last two, but hope a couple others finish up the game before I get a chance to play them.

Guess I'll have to end this with I-990, the highest number in the system:

I also somehow forgot to put in this "I-100", which I am sure I've posted in other threads at some point in the past.  This was at the Henry Ford Museum when I visited there on August 3, 2001.

It's an error. It's New York reference route 984J (all New York reference routes have unusual letters at the end), and it's a freeway with no other number... so why not make it I-984J?
