WTOP has a tweet tonight saying DC is expected to post the new Interstate numbers sometime next year. Of course, that still leaves 366 possibilities.

Referencing the number of days in the year didn't even cross my mind until I read your post. "Tandem announcement with VDOT on signing VA 28 as I-366" did. Clearly I've been on the forum too long.

I meant it as a leap year reference, but I did wonder whether people would construe it as the other.
There already is a 166 in VA and VDOT does not allow same numbers to be used on different highway types

I meant it as a leap year reference, but I did wonder whether people would construe it as the other.FWIW, I immediately got the leap year reference. I'm not aware of the other reference (i.e., not aware of potential (or otherwise) VA 28/I-366 connection --- and if they were to do that, why not 166?)
Do you think VA 28 north of I66 will be changed to I366? Will the speed limit there go up to 65 mph?
Quote from: US71 on August 24, 2011, 04:48:35 PMShould this not go to Fictional Highways? Actually, I'm doing this on purpose because when all of the traffic lights north on I66 are removed, it will be an auxiliary route of I66. I also think 55 mph is not fast enough, so I also want that speed limit to go up to 65 mph. The Elanor C. Lawrence Park will be turned to a trumpet interchange. The intersection south of that will be an SPUI. The traffic light south of that will be removed. Going to I66 east from south will use route 50 to get there because the signal there will also be removed. That's all for this area on signal removals.

The nearest Metro stop (Potomac Yards) would need major upgrades. Potomac Yards also happens to have been the most recent Metro station to open, and for whatever reasons (guessing anticipated low volume usage) they put in only one escalator and stairway.
