This here having two exact same signs is from what I understand a No No by the manual.

How many other locations have two signs exactly the same for the same exit.

Don't get me started on the leftmost BGS.

Different context, but for Exit 39 on MA 128:

I'm not familiar with any restriction on this in the MUTCD.

Are you talking about these two signs? Because if so, I'm pretty sure the MUTCD essentially requires them to be the same.

There are multiple overhead assemblies going north on I-95 in Delaware displaying the same lane assignments for the 295 split, but again, whether that is an MUTCD violation is being disputed.
