Mass Ave, Alewife Brook Parkway, Mystic Valley Parkway,  MA 2A, Mill St, Mass Ave, MA 4, MA/NH 3A

Hartford to New London, CT without using I-95, I-395, CT 2, CT 9, CT 11, or CT 85
Interstates I've clinched: 97, 290 (MA), 291 (CT), 291 (MA), 293, 295 (DE-NJ-PA), 295 (RI-MA), 384, 391, 395 (CT-MA), 395 (MD), 495 (DE), 610 (LA), 684, 691, 695 (MD), 695 (NY), 795 (MD)

I-84 to I-384 to US 6 to CT 87 to W Town St to New London Turnpike to CT 32. Getting past Norwich (where CT 32 has a concurrency with CT 2) was hard.

I actually put up the Boston to Manchester without any Interstates, US or State routes challenge after spotting that pair
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Buffalo-Baltimore: US-219 -> I-68 -> I-70 -> Cooks Ln -> US-40.
How about Denver to Winter Park, CO (a drive I have taken myself) but no I-70 or any local road alongside I-70.
Hint: It's impossible to get to Winter Park without taking US-40.

I-25 to US 36 to US 34 to US 40.

(Note that the western part of US 34 is closed in the winter)

Now, how about Orlando to Winter Park, FL but no I-4 or any local road alongside I-4. Hint: It's somewhat hard, but not somewhat impossible, to get to Winter Park without taking US-17-92.

The two cities border each other; there are a whole bunch of residential streets where all you have to do is cross over the city line and you're done.

Yeah it's more important to simply follow the signs for US-17-92 (via SR 50 if driving from the Orange Blossom Trail segment on US-441) than to get lost via the residential streets.

During the winter, it would be I-25 to CO 14 CO 125 to US 40 in Granby.

I think BUS-70 to CO-2 to 56th Avenue to Hudson Rd to CO-36 to US-36 to I-72 to I-55. The hardest part is getting out of the Denver area to the east w/o I-70 or I-76.
Continuing with the stop and start from the same place theme . . .
Chicago to Cairo, IL without I-57, IL-1, IL-37, or US-51.
