Southeast / Re: Florida

Something else I have to ask about is the truck routes around DeLand. We all know the truck route for US 17 is FL 15A, and the truck route for US 92 is FL 15A and Volusia CR 92. But north of the intersection with FL 44, the truck routes are joined by FL Truck Route 44 along FL 15A north of FL 44 and VCR 92 east of FL 50. But no signage for FL Truck Route 44 exists east of the northern terminus of the overlap with US 17 and 92. So where would trucks go to return to FL 44?

National Boards ► General Highway Talk ► Countries reachable via a single route from Ohio — none, maybe?

Also, Mexico via US 62 (which is only saved from being the most ridiculous US route by the existence of US 6).

A slightly better one for Illinois would be Marion (not OH) and Harrisburg (not PA).  If only the spelling were the same, the third destination would also qualify.

If only the road between Eldorado and IL-34 weren't signed for Eldorado from IL-34, there would also be Raleigh/Harrisburg.  But alas, Raleigh is only signed from the other endpoint.

Some runners-up:
Virginia (not the state), Jacksonville (not FL)
Danville (not VA), Paris (not TX)
Stockton (not CA), Freeport (not NY)

I'm pretty sure that can find a sign on I-80 near Salt Lake that shows Reno and Cheyenne (opposite directions), but I'm late to the party. That probably wasn't what OP had in mind. There's definitely a "Mecca" and "Baghdad" distance sign (on US-395, if memory serves) in California.

Shocker: another long-term closure in Hampton Roads, this time at the US-17 interchange with VA-134 near Tabb. The loop ramp from VA-134 NB to US-17 SB is expected to be closed from July 2025 to at least late 2026 for a bridge rehabilitation project.

I think it's more interesting when the two faraway locations are ones that could reasonably appear on the same sign.

Signs like that tend to be fairly common in hotel parking lots and other commercial parking lots, I've noticed.

My #1 would be the END SPEED ZONE signs instead of just posting the new speed limit.

Followed by "Ocean Beaches" as a freqent control city for routes leading to the coast from the Willamette Valley.
