Title: Exit Numbers and Route Numbers
Post by: ctsignguy on February 23, 2010, 08:14:04 PM
Ok, I got a game for you ...on all the Interstates (including beltways, loops, spurs as well as mainlines) can you name the interchanges (either consecutive or mileage-based) where the exit number matches the route being intersected....

Two examples to start you off with:

I-71, Exit 104 > Ohio Route 104
I-270 Exit 23 > US Route 23

OK, y'all....have fun with THIS one!

US 7 in CT. Exit 1 = US 1

Now the real prize would be an instance where the matched route is an interstate. Hmm...

I think you have that confused for US 31 at Exit 31, since 41 is at least 70 miles west of Indy. On that same highway a few miles down the road you have Exit 37 with I-69 and SR 37.

This is not quite what you're looking for but there is an Exit 65 on I-65 in Tennessee (for TN 96).  I really thought that was interesting back when the speed limit was 65!

Back on topic:

US 11 Enters/Leaves I-75 at Exit 11 north of Chattanooga.

and a near miss:
The exit for US 31A/41A on TN 840 is Exit 42.

These are more common than one might think. I-64 eastbound's Exit 75 in Kentucky is for I-75. I-75's Exit 25 is for US 25W. I've photographed numerous examples in several states.

And Exit 275 is for FL 56, they should just bump both of them up one.

Not interstate, but both A1(M) junction 14 and M11 junction 14 in GB are for the A14. M25 junction 2 is for the A2. M4 junction 4a is for the A4. M54 junction 5 is for the A5. M8 junction 8 is for the A8. That's it for Britain.

I-10 exit 1A in CA is for CA1
I-95 exit 1A in FL is for US1

I-95 exit 1 in MA is for US1

If this counts, exit 17 off the NY Thruway/I-87 accesses NY 17K (the third on I-87!).

Also, not an exit/route number coincidence, but an exit number/distance coincidence...

I-49 in Louisiana has LA 119 (Cloutierville) at exit 119. The next exit northbound is LA 120, but the exit number is 127 :-(

There aren't any others in Louisiana I don't think.

A palindrome in Shreveport on I-20. Exit 8 is US 80

Other close calls are exit 137 on I-20....LA 138 & US 425 Rayville Archibald


And if US 167/LA 28 Pineville Expressway ever got exit numbers, I'm sure the Downtown Alexandria Hwy 1 exit would get a 1 or a 1C

I-495 Exit 38 is for MA 38.  I-293 Exit 3 (though not numbered, but implied) says "To US 3").  I-295 In RI Exit 6 is US 6, and in MA Exit 1 is US 1.  I-95 in MA Exit 1 is US 1, Exit 4 in NH is US 4.

If NJDOT did have exit numbers for NJ 495 you might have its US 1 exit as Exit 1 (or 1B & 1C WB as 1A would have to be NJ 3).

Exit 75 for I-64 (eastbound only) in Kentucky is for I-75.

Exit 25 on I-75 is for US 25W.

If West Virginia signed its Exit 34 on I-64 the way it does most of its exits, that would be for WV 34. However, it's signed for CR 19. Contrast that with the previous exit for Milton, which is signed for US 60 but is actually a county route as well.
