Interchanges between Conventional Roads

[Kacie Jane]

Seattle has sort of a special case of this at the interchange between 4th Avenue and I-90.  It's the western terminus of I-90 where it becomes Edgar Martinez Drive (formerly Atlantic Street).  It's sort of a 3/4 SPUI from 4th Avenue to I-90/Atlantic (i.e. the traffic lights are on I-90/Atlantic).

Don't remember if I have contributed to this thread, and too lazy to go look, but West Virginia has several along its Appalachian Regional Commission corridors, which are mostly surface routes. Also, the new US 35 four-lane is a surface route but has an interchange with WV 34 near Winfield.

There are a handful in Kentucky as well. US 23 is a surface route for all of its four-lane length but it has some interchanges scattered about. I wouldn't count the Hambley Blvd. interchange in Pikeville because it's the end of the route, but there are interchanges at KY 1384, KY 80, KY 114 and US 460. There are also plans to build a grade-separated interchange at KY 3 near Louisa. (Which, in my view, is a total waste of money. The current signalized intersection is at the bottom of a long downhill grade going north and the exit is being built, supposedly, to keep coal trucks from running the red light and slamming into vehicles that have the green on KY 3. I'd solve that by spending a few thousand dollars to put a mandatory truck stop at the top of the hill, instead of millions for an interchange.)

KY 67 has an interchange with KY 207. In Lexington, US 60 and KY 4 are both surface roads where they intersect on the east side of town, as are KY 4 and KY 922. (The freeway portion of New Circle Road starts just to the west, at the US 25 interchange.) And in Frankfort, US 60 and KY 676/US 421 are both surface routes at the site of Kentucky's first SPUI, built in the early '80s.

Kentucky also has a handful of grade-separated intersections that aren't fully directional interchanges. US 23 and KY 32 near Louisa, KY 321 (old US 23) and KY 1428 (even older US 23) south of Paintsville, KY 80 and KY 476 northeast of Hazard, new KY 15 and KY 205/KY 1812 in Breathitt County and US 119 and KY 160 at Cumberland are examples.

The logic of some of the grade separations on the newest sections of US 119 in Pike County escapes me.

In Tennessee, there is one in the western part of the state south of Jackson. Also in Kingsport there are grade separations at TN 36 (old US 23) and US 11W, and US 11W and TN 93. The southern split of US 25E and US 11W near Bean Station is a full interchange, while the northern split is not fully grade-separated.

Another Nashville area one that I forgot:

The US 31W/41 split north of town.  It's right near exit 98 of I-65.

[hbelkins]

Can't believe I forgot three in the Hazard area.

KY 15 and KY 80/KY 550 north of Hazard.

KY 15 and Hal Rogers Parkway/KY 80, also north of Hazard. At that point the Hal Rogers Parkway is a surface route, not a limited access "super 2."

KY 15 and KY 451 on the Hazard Bypass.

And in light of the bridge takedown, US 68/KY 80 and The Trace have a grade-separated intersection in Land Between The Lakes, much like the Blue Ridge Parkway intersections with state and US routes.

There's an interchange at US 62 and US 641/KY 282 near Kentucky Dam, and also US 62/641 and KY 453 at Grand Rivers.

There a couple that have been missed in Chicagoland.

A psudo one in Bensenville, IL 83 Kingery Hwy/Busse Hwy with IL 19 Irving Park Rd. Signs are posted on side streets to get to between the two roads.

There was one on IL 50 Cicero Ave in Chicago at the Ford City Mall that connected to Pulaski Rd but that was removed about 10 years ago.

US 14 Dempster St has one at IL 21 Milwaukee Ave in Niles.

Lemont Rd/State St at Main St/New Ave in Lemont.  Coming south on Lemont Rd/State St, the bridge ends at the light at Illinois Ave and has signs posted to get to Main St/New Ave.

Along US 45 La Grange Rd in the southwest suburbs there are a couple of them. One is in Palos Hills at IL 83 Calumet Sag Rd. Another is at IL 171 Archer Ave/79th St but that also has a NB to SB I-294 ramp and SB to SB I-294 ramp mixed into the interchange. But I believe this should count since there are direct ramps between IL 171 Archer Ave and US 12/20/45 La Grange Rd.  There is also a psudo one at IL 7 Southwest Hwy with signs posted as "to" along 143rd St.

Along US 41 Skokie Hwy in Lake County, there are several "exits" in the non expressway sections of the road. They are at Deerpath Rd, IL 176 Rockland Rd (using side streets), Northport Blvd (SB 41 access to/from only), Old Skokie Hwy (NB 41 access to/from only), IL 120 Belvidere Rd, IL 43 Waukegan Rd, Washington St, IL 132 Grand Ave.

Then there is Willow Rd/Palatine Rd through Arlington Hts and Wheeling. It is a psudo expressway but also has several lights and driveways along it so i would say it counts. There are exits at IL 83 Elmhurst Rd, Wolf Rd, and US 45/IL 21 Milwaukee Ave.

In Colonia, NJ you have NJ 27 and New Dover Road.
In Bunnel, FL you have the North/ West end of the US 1 and FL 100 concurrency.
In Newark, NJ you have the main roadway of Branch Brook Park have grade separated interchanges with locals streets passing through the park.
In Groveland, FL you have the FL 19 and US 27 interchange with the two lane FL 19 being the main body of the interchange with  four lane US 27 as the secondary body.  The only place around I know where a two lane roadway exits onto a four lane highway.
In Ephrata, PA you have both PA 272 and US 322 with a cloverleaf.

Previous post fixed.  That's what I get for only looking at my ADC Metro Philly atlas that showed the 2 roads as grade-separated.

This interchange at SW Lee Blvd & Goodyear Blvd in Lawton, OK serves a Goodyear plant:

There was one on IL 50 Cicero Ave in Chicago at the Ford City Mall that connected to Pulaski Rd but that was removed about 10 years ago.

The interchange on Pulaski Rd is still there.

Park Loop Road and ME 233 near Bar Harbor, ME has a grade separated interchange for two 2 lane non freeway roads.
US 281 in Pharr, Texas has an interchange now where it changes alignment between Milatary Highway and South Cage Boulevard.  Both roads are arterials.

[roadman65]

How about the western split of the US 54 and US 400 concurrency near Mullinville, KS?  They are all two lane roadways, yet there is an interchange there carrying EB US 400 over the two lane US 54.

Not quite - US 190 between LA 22/North Causeway and I-12 is full freeway and (except for pavement condition) Interstate-standard at that interchange.

[roadman65]

Does the Colonial Parkway in VA count?  It has an interchange with VA 5 just north of the tunnel that is really with one connector road that is accessed from both directions and meets the Parkway at grade.  BTW you cannot even consider this road a freeway or super two because it is not even striped  its whole length except through the tunnel to prevent passing while inside.

There are actually two interchanges between conventional roads in Salinas.

First here is the Davis Road intersection with CA-183 (W. Market St.):


Second, here's the E. Market Street intersection with Front Street:

First here is the Davis Road intersection with CA-183 (W. Market St.):

I THINK this was built as part of a 1960s realignment proposal for Route 68 on the west side of town, that only came to fruition for that one junction.

[CentralCAroadgeek]

That's what I think is the reason for this. I think 68 was supposed to be a freeway all the way to 101 near Laurel, but I guess only the part going into the mountains on the Salinas side got built as a freeway.

[KEK Inc.]

There's a few on Monterey Rd. (even the non-CA-82 segment) due to the railroad tracks. 

~ Capitol Expwy (Monterey Rd. is CA-82)
~ Blossom Hill Rd (Monterey Rd. is CA-82)
~ Bernal Rd
~ Bailey Rd

[myosh_tino]

and to round out the rest of Santa Clara County...

* Lawrence Expwy & Stevens Creek Blvd (Santa Clara)
* Lawrence Expwy & El Camino Real (Santa Clara)
* Lawrence Expwy & Central Expwy (Sunnyvale)
* Central Expwy & San Antonio Road (Palo Alto)
* Central Expwy & Shoreline Blvd (Mountain View)
* Central Expwy & Middlefield Road (Sunnyvale)
* Central Expwy & Mathilda Avenue (Sunnyvale)
* Central Expwy & Fair Oaks Blvd (Sunnyvale)
* Central Expwy & Wolfe Road (Sunnyvale)
* Central Expwy & San Tomas Expwy (Santa Clara)
* San Tomas Expwy & Winchester Blvd (Campbell)
* Montague Expwy & Lafayette Street (San Jose)
* Page Mill Road & Alma Ave (Palo Alto)
* El Camino Real & University Ave (Palo Alto/Stanford)
* Almaden Expwy & Curtner Ave (San Jose)
* Almaden Expwy & Lincoln Ave (San Jose)
* Almaden Expwy & Hillsdale Ave (San Jose)
* Foothill Expwy & Fremont Ave/Miramonte Ave (Los Altos)
* Route 152 & Route 156 (east of Gilroy)
* Route 152 & Casa De Fruta Pkwy

Note: Expressways in Santa Clara County are considered conventional roads as they have at-grade intersections often controlled by signals and have lower speed limits (35-50 MPH).  Both routes 152 and 156 are conventional two lane highways.  Once the two routes come together, Route 152 east of the interchange is a 4-lane expressway.
