I didn't see a topic for this and for some reason I had it on my mind. One such highway that I frequent which ends at the gate of a military base is CA 282 which ends at a gate for NAS North Island.
Some others that come to mind off the top of my head:
- FL 573 at MacDill AFB
- HI 93 supposedly now at Point Space Force Satellite Tracking Station (not fully confirmed where traffic stops now on Farrington Highway).
- Interstate H-3 at Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
- FL 101 at NS Mayport.
- UT 196 and UT 199 at the Dugway Proving Ground.
IN 158, IN 558 and IN 645 all end at NSA Crane
MD 246 & MD 712 both end at entrances to the NAS Patuxent River in Southern Maryland, MD 198 & MD 713 both end at entrances to Fort Meade in the Balt/Wash area, and MD 152 & MD 24 both end at entrances to the Aberdeen Proving Ground northeast of Baltimore.
NC 172, on paper, runs through Camp LeJeune, but the road has gates at both base boundaries.
AL 255 at Redstone Arsenal
AL 249, AL 85, and AL 37 at Fort Rucker
I-185 at Fort Benning
CO 16 ends (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.7252953,-104.7382939,3a,49y,302.47h,89.89t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sJWu9_HQAKgZBkAqGUDDanw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) at a gate to Fort Carson.
I-781, Fort Drum
WA 308 basically ends at the entrance to the Navy Undersea Warfare Center in Keyport, which is part of Naval Base Kitsap. At its other end, it continues onto the Bangor Trident Base.

MD 152 and MD 24 end at the Edgewood Arsenal; MD 715 and MD 22 end at the main APG, and 715 was built specifically as an access road to it.
I-185 ends at Fort Benning near Columbus, GA.
I-781 ends at Fort Drum near Watertown, NY.
VA 105 ends at Fort Eustis
VA 109 ends at Fort Lee
US 258 and VA 143 end at Fort Monroe (no longer an active military base), although it's possible US 258 continues through Fort Monroe and ends at Old Point Comfort (VDOT's ArcGIS map suggests this)
VA 206 ends at Naval Support Facility Dahlgren
VA 238 ends at Naval Weapons Station Yorktown
VA 337 and I-564 end at each other but the interchange where this happens serves a main gate to the Norfolk Naval Station
VA 244 *used* to end at an interchange with VA 27 that serves the Pentagon - it no longer does but the signage remains

D'oh! The Edgewood section caught my eye first & I zoomed in there, completely forgetting about the main portion in, well, Aberdeen. Thanks for catching!

I thought AL 248 also ended at a gate to Fort Rucker.
Then end shield for I-185 is posted at the US 280/US 27 underpass (this is not unusual for Georgia).

Not exactly, that ends at VA 337. Even VA 337 swings away from the main gate at NS Norfolk. VA 225 does end at JB Little Creek.

Actually I think VA 143 does this on both ends with Camp Peary at its western terminus.
The south (east) end of VA 144 at VA 36 is across from the Sisiky Blvd Gate at Fort Lee.
NJ 68 technically does enter Fort Dix up to a traffic circle.

Totally forgot about VA 143's northern end being at Camp Peary...though I'm sure Camp Peary would prefer that. ;)

Yup, that one too.

I looked at that one on GSV, and didn't see BL 44 actually signed south of I-44 on Missouri Ave. I may have missed the shield(s)
BL 44 is certainly signed at the exit off I-44
Utah's SR 232, 103, and 97 all end at various Hill Air Force Base gates.
To put a new spin on this thread, SR 168 ends at a former gate of that base.

I wasn't fully clear on the current boundary of the military reservation within the Philadelphia Navy Yard. PA 611 certainly does end at the old entrance gate.
There's also NV 573, which ends at Camp Nellis.

There are topics for highways you supposedly can't clinch without entering a military base. This topic is broader than that, covering highways that end at or really close to a base gate, but can be clinched without entering the base.
As 74/171FAN notes, NJ 68 is one of the few routes that actually extend past a military base gate, extending less than a quarter-mile into Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst. NJ 68's south endpoint was established before public travel was restricted within the base, and apparently was never truncated after the restriction took effect.
There are other instances mentioned here where you don't have to enter the base to clinch, even though the route ends at or very close to a base gate. I'll cover those and others when I'm more awake.

Fort Leonard Wood is at the end of "Business Loop 44" in St. Roberts.
Unless something has changed since I last traveled through St. Roberts, there's both a Business Loop 44 and a Business Spur 44 in St. Roberts. The Business Spur route is the one that connects the mainline I-44 to Ft. Leonard Wood.
Travel Mapping's predecessor site Clinched Highway Mapping had the business spur actually entering the Army base, continuing past the base gate. At some point, that was corrected to have the spur ending at or just north of the gate, which is what TM shows now.

Also both segments of KY 251 (I'm guessing it used to be continuous) end at the fort.

- HI 93 supposedly now at Point Space Force Satellite Tracking Station (not fully confirmed where traffic stops now on Farrington Highway).
- Interstate H-3 at Marine Corps Base Hawaii.
Lots of others in Hawaii:
West end of HI 50 at a closed gate for the Pacific Missile Range in southwest Kauai island
West end of HI 92 at the main gate for Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (the highway may technically end at the gate, but the gate is about 150 feet west of the right turn to Center Dr., which is within base boundaries but can be used to leave the base to HI 99 without stopping for a sentry)
South end of HI 76 at a closed gate for MCBH-Puuloa
East end of HI 7012 at a naval communications station
East end of unsigned HI 7141 at a naval ammunition depot
North end of unsigned HI 7241 at entrance to Camp Smith Marine Corps base
North end of unsigned HI 7345 at gate for Tripler Army Medical Center
The All-American Freeway in Fayetteville NC may not be a numbered highway, but it is a freeway which ends at the entrance to Fort Bragg
Does a National Guard base count? Camp Dawson Road (CR-7/26) in Kingwood, West Virginia officially ends at the south gate of Camp Dawson. Which adds a couple of different twists to this thread. It enters the base at the north gate and runs almost the entire length of the base along the northwest side of the Air National Guard landing strip (parallel to the Cheat River). When the landing strip was lengthened, the southwestern end of CR-7/26 was truncated and crosses the runway and reconnects to the main base road. And the main base road connects back to the original CR-7/26 before exiting at the South Gate (where CR-7/26 officially ends).
It appears that some (if not all) the other base roads have official state secondary route numbers, but those roads are not shown on the official WVDOH county map. Another oddity is that Camp Dawson Road continues beyond the South Gate as a little dirt road, which eventually turns into Whitsell Trowbridge Road (CR-43/2), all of which is unpaved.
I kinda makes sense that a National Guard base would have roads that are maintained by the State.

Can confirm it is at the junction with "Satellite Tracking Station Road."
We collect the photolog (among other data sets) for HDOT and road is barricaded immediately north of this junction.

It seems we ended up featuring videos and images of HI 93 right before the gate was erected. Shame too, the only access to abandoned Farrington Highway at Kaena Point is now on the County Route 930 side.

Is the road past the barricades closed to pedestrian access?
I hiked the road from the end of HI 93 to Kaena Point in January 2009. I don't recall if there was a barricade at the end of HI 93. The road beyond had some landslide closures that could be walked around, as well as a vehicle barricade where the old road crossed into the Kaena Point nature preserve.

The images Dan Murphy provided for our HI 93 blog stub were from 2019. The roadway was still accessible to Keawaula Beach at the time. That narrows when the gate went up to the last handful of years.

Plenty of folks using the beach up there last winter, so it's very much walkable still:

No dogs allowed, though. ;)

That's good news. I want to walk the abandoned portion of Farrington Highway if I get called out to a work thing next year (which apparently may be a thing).
Update to Hawaii SR 93 at Kaena Point. When our vehicle went up there a few weeks ago, the road was unblocked and ungated again:

Fort Leonard Wood is at the end of "Business Loop 44" in St. Roberts.
At the northern end, its Spur BUS-I-44. At the southern end, its MO highway AW, which connect the southern end of the fort to Highway 17.
SR 173 in Escambia County, Florida. Though the GIS data shows SR 173 ending at SR 292A and the short stretch to the gate of Pensacola NAS as CR 173:

SR 295 at Warrington, Florida. The state road ends at the north end of Bayou Grande. Navy Boulevard crosses the waterway south to the Pensacola NAS Main Gate:

NJ-68's southern end is at Fort Dix.
It's not technically military, but it's US Department of Energy...
SC 19's southern terminus is at the main gate to the Savannah River Site.
But as far as actual DOD sites, SC 760's eastern terminus is at Fort Jackson Gate 1(?).
And GA 383's southern terminus is at Fort Gordon Gate 1.
In my experience (in part because I have been to several of the military bases in question), many of the routes mentioned do not actually end at the gate but at some sort of public road or intersection before getting to the gate. Examples of these include the OP's CA 282 (begins/ends at Alameda Blvd), MS 854 (actually ends BEFORE the intersection with Rabbit Rd, which is outside the gate and base property), and the multi-mentioned I-564/VA 337 which end at each other.
Along the lines of something Oscar posted, and mentioned here because it hasn't been mentioned yet and I clinched it a few months ago, GA 119 passes THROUGH Fort Stewart, much like how NC 172 passes through Camp Lejeune.
AR 176 ends at the main gate of Camp Robinson, which is the major AR National Guard headquarters. The road is in fact named Camp Robinson Road. A half-mile down the road from the gate used to be a Catholic orphanage that our church youth would go visit every Thanksgiving. Farther back and up Remount Road was a liquor store where I bought my first six-pack and got rollicking drunk.
DE 10 ends at an interchange with DE 1 adjacent to the North Gate of Dover AFB.
