This is where the maintenance of a bridge is divided between two entities.
PA turnpike and the NJ Turnpike, the current bridge has modern LED style lighting up to the mid span on the PA side, once you cross the center line into New Jersey the lighting returns to sodium vapor. at one time there was a major shift in deck quality between the two states as NJ lagged on repaving.
Are there any other examples like this?
The new Woodrow Wilson Bridge is owned jointly between VDOT and Maryland SHA (State Highway Administration). I've seen crews from both agencies working on the bridge, though not at the same time.
There are 14 bridges (one more under construction) between Wisconsin and Minnesota that split maintenance costs. The agencies alternate between who takes lead responsibility in maintenance. Between Superior-Duluth, MNDOT is in charge of the Blatnik Bridge (I-535) and WISDOT is in charge of the Bong Bridge (US 2). Evidence of this is by looking at their respective websites where the projects were listed.
I wonder about the Seabees Memorial Bridge over the Connecticut River. It's between Brattleboro, VT and Chesterfield, NH via VT and NH Route 9. I think New Hampshire owns most of the bridge, since the state line is the west shore of the river, not the center of it. The town and state line markers are both on the west (Vermont) side of the bridge.

That seems like a sensible way to do it. The Split i meant was where at mid span it suddenly changes deck type and lighting due to one side favoring one set of standards. On the turnpike bridge even the lane markings change standards.
It was gone long before motorized traffic would have used it, but the Datchet Bridge (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datchet_Bridge) in England was maintained (or not) by Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. The most ridiculous iteration of the bridge was actually two separate bridges that only barely met in the center of the Thames.
