Title: US, Interstate routes that cross only once and do not intersect
Post by: hbelkins on May 22, 2016, 03:51:13 PM
I've found this to be a fairly rare instance but happens often enough to be noticeable. For instance, US 45 crosses I-64 out in the middle of nowhere in Illinois but there is an interchange. However, in other locations, there is no interchange.

Kentucky examples --
I-64 and US 31 cross in Louisville but do not intersect.
I-64 and US 421 cross near Midway but do not intersect.
I-64 and US 25 cross north of Lexington but do not intersect.
I-65 and US 150, US 31E and US 60 all cross in Louisville but there's no interchange. (US 31E is signed on an I-65 exit near Nashville, but the roads do not actually cross. Also, US 60 used to have an interchange when it was routed along I-264, and there is an interchange with Alternate US 60, but it does not count).
I-471 does not intersect US 27. The spur route south of I-275 that connects to US 27 is unsigned KY 471.

No examples for I-24, I-71, I-75, I-265 or I-275. I-275 does not intersect US 27 in Kentucky, but it does in Ohio.

No examples in West Virginia.

Would you count US-30 and I-75 in Ohio?  You have to go on Ohio 696* for about 1/4 mile to get from one freeway to the other.

* - aka Lincoln Highway, so I surmise this was once part of US-30.  Perhaps when the US-30 freeway was built, it was felt impractical to build a direct intersection to I-75.

I-84 and US 5 in East Hartford, CT

I-91 and US 44 in Hartford: US 44 isn't officially part of I-84 when they cross (it's on a pair of exit ramps from I-84) , but it does join by the time the ramp from I-91 South to I-84 East merges onto 84.

I-95 and US 27 in Miami has no interchange. There's no "To US 27" signs anywhere. It's a bit of an oddity, since I-95 in Florida skips over very few state roads for exits, but the missing 27 has always been a weird one.

A) they're both going to terminate a few miles south/east in Miami anyhow.

B) the I-195 / FL 112 interchange built in the 1960s doesn't leave any room for an exit.

I-75 and US 92 cross without any access. Further north US 301 passes under I-75 for a third and final time from the south, but this time without direct access. The two parallel each other through to Ocala before US 301 branches northeast for good.

US 41 crosses under I-275 in FL near the north end without direct access due to a parallel CSX Railroad line.

Yes there is.  The westbound exit is a bit convoluted and requires one to use c/d roads and ramps, but it's a direct connection.

The Ohio US 30/I-75 and US 35/I-71 mentions are accurate now, but at one time they were not. The OH 435 current routing was once US 35 until the freeway was completed.

There's one on-ramp from US Route 5 North to I-84/US Route 6 West. I'd imagine no other ramps were built due to a nearby flood dike wall immediately south of the interstate. Also, I-84/US 6's Exit 56 for Governor Street - East Hartford is already immediately after this heading west.

Not 100% certain about I-91 and US Route 44...but they come awfully damn close!

Prior to the 1989-90 reroute of US 1 onto I-93 (& a short segment of I-95) in the Boston area; it crossed but did not interchange with I-90.

Not sure if this old MDC-spec'd BGS (https://www.google.com/maps/@42.3479287,-71.0920162,3a,75y,321.99h,78.52t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s_5Osvy0raU58hLxtFflFfA!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo3.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3D_5Osvy0raU58hLxtFflFfA%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D93.581245%26pitch%3D0!7i13312!8i6656) erected a few years prior to the reroute (but never revised) is still there.

The section of the PA Turnpike signed I-70/I-76 does this with both US-119 and US-219.

And at Bedford, there's US-220; you have to go a few hundred yards on Business 220 to get between the pike and I-99/US-220 proper.  Also, in that same vicinity, the pike crosses US-30 twice -- and does so yet again east of Breezewood.

That doesn't count, for two reasons. One is that access is provided, and IIRC, the exit is signed for US 50. Two is that the routes intersect on the west side of Cincinnati, at the only Indiana exit for I-275, and access there is also via an access road.

#1 is incorrect. It used to be signed for US-50, but now the BGS says OH-450 to US-50. The access road is signed OH-450 until you pass I-275 going Westbound and it turns into Milford Pkwy. So you have to take OH-450 East to get to US-50. You have to take OH-450 West to get to I-275.

#2 I will give you and I thought of that one. That is really just a long ramp to get to US-50.

I actually never knew that it was US 11 until a couple years ago. It's simply signed as "Virginia Avenue" and I never thought a dinky 2 lane road is US 11.

Further down the Kansas Turnpike, I-35 does not intersect US 54 and US 400 by Wichita.

There is indeed an interchange, Exit 50. https://goo.gl/maps/b1MCBACEpJF2

Thanks, I only saw the interchange with K-96.
