Title: Perpendicular Interstates that do not interchange.
Post by: roadman65 on October 20, 2012, 06:28:35 PM
Are there any N-S Interstates or any E-W Interstates that do not interchange with another primary interstate from a perpendicular direction?

I can think of I-82 and I-89.  Are there others?

I-97. I-99, sort of. I-H3.

I-95 and I-276...for now anyway.

Do you dispute the factual accuracy of my statement? It is a valid answer to his question.

Typical roadman65 ambiguity. The topic should read something like 'Interstates that do not interchange with anything perpendicular'.

No it means an interstate in its entirety that does not interchange with any other perpendicular interstate.  I-89 interchanges with US 2, US 4, US 202, and US 302.  The only other primary interstates it interchanges are I-91 and I-93 and its own child route I-189.  If I said what you suggested this would not apply here.

I will grant you that the subject is poorly worded and doesn't appear to match the post, and thus my facepalm may have been overreacting (or perhaps misdirected).  But I'm 99% sure that the question at hand is 2-digit interstates that do not intersect any perpendicular 2-digit interstates for their entire length.  (The answers to this question are individual routes, not pairs.)

I-82 intersects only I-90 and I-84, no odd-numbered 2dis.
I-89 intersects only I-91 and I-93, no even-numbered 2dis.

(And I-82 doesn't intersect I-89 because they're on opposite ends of the country. *wink*)

Right, but if we go by what you wrote -- "Perpendicular Interstates that do not interchange" -- then I-95 and I-276 would qualify.  They're perpendicular interstates that do not interchange.

Okay, I see what you mean.  However, then it should be Interstates that do not cross any other perpendicular interstates not just any route.  Although that might be for another thread as that proves interesting as well.  No ones perfect and at least I try.

Yep.  Should be no ones' perfect.
