Interchanges between two lane roads

This is specifically for interchanges between two undivided two lane roads.

I know of two in Wisconsin: WI-16 and WI-22 near Wyocena and WI-13 and US-8 near Prentice.

I explicitly stated in the original post that this was for two lane examples only. If the threads should be merged, that's the mods responsibility, not yours.

Hmmm. This got me thinking. There are a crazy lot of US-State Route shield mix-ups, so we now have a thread devoted to them specifically, and a thread for general mix-ups. I'm not sure we can apply that logic here, since the original thread wasn't out of control/annoyingly bogged down with examples specific to 2-lane roads. And because it's mostly links instead of photos, nobody really notices how many examples there are of each type of roadway.

There are a fair number of interchanges between two-lane roads in Nova Scotia, including on some of the 100-series highways (101 north of Yarmouth has several).

Any super-2 and it's junctioning roadway (presuming itself two lanes) would count for this right? That gives over a dozen in New England between MA 2, NH 101, NH 16 (down to one now), US 202/NH 9, and maybe some others I am missing.

NY 104/NY 89 is an interesting example as neither road is a freeway, and the overpass actually has room for another carriageway!

I don't know, but if it takes THREE "no left turn" signs to stop people from doing it, perhaps the choice of intersection design should be questioned.

SR 42 and the Powers Highway in Coos County OR, just east of Myrtle Point.

US 101 and SR 18 in Lincoln County, just north of Lincoln City OR.

US 101 and the road which leads to the Rogue Hills development just north of Gold Beach OR.

ODOT had a "thing" going for a while it appears!

US 101 is THE backbone of the Pacific coast from Bandon OR to Willits CA.  Industry, tourism and local traffic would be gone or severely crippled without it being in functioning condition in BOTH states.

Yeah, I've always been curious about that random half-diamond. Yet another point in favor of twinning NY 104 from Williamson to NY 370!

I don't remember if I read this somewhere or just assumed it...but several significant parts of NY 104 in Eastern Wayne County, including that "interchange" are graded like a Super-2 and I assumed it was advanced prep for an actual twinning that was long abandoned.

Kentucky has a few on the Mountain Parkway (KY 191, KY 1010, KY 205 and KY 134/191) but the latter two are going away as the Mountain Parkway is being four-laned at those exits.

On the Hal Rogers, the KY 451 exit is the only true interchange that qualifies. I think KY 80 may have four lanes at the spot where it crosses the Hal Rogers at Manchester, and the KY 66 and KY 118 exits are at-grades where toll booths were formerly located.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Also US 101 and US 26 in Seaside. And multiple interchanges (3 of them, but 2 of them have involve a RIRO, and one of those allows left turns) on the Cannon Beach bypass just to the south.

Beltway

I count 4 such interchanges on the VA-262 Staunton Loop.

While the crossing road briefly widens to 4 lanes in the interchange area, the crossing road routes are 2-lane roads.

Two possible reasons why that interchange exists:
1.  Such obviously long predated the existence of I-95; US 1 was the main thoroughfare at that time & carried more traffic.
2.  When the Topsfield Fair (which dates back to 1818) is open every October, US 1 in this area becomes a parking lot during the week-and-a half duration of the event.  A grade-separated crossing at the very least allows the local traffic to continue moving along.
