Interchanges between Conventional Roads

I believe no one mentioned US 322 with PA 272 in Ephrata, PA.

US 322, US 422, and PA 39 in Hershey, PA.  Even though US 322 west of this interchange is freeway, US 422, PA 39, and US 322 from the east are all conventional roads.

NJ 5 and NJ 63 in Bergen County, NJ.

FL 589 and FL 597 (Dale Mabry & Busch Boulevard) in Tampa, FL.

US 92 and FL 580 (Dale Mabry & Hillsborough Avenue) also in Tampa, FL.

FL 50 and FL 436 in Orlando, FL.

John Young Parkway and Osceola Parkway in Kissimmee, FL.

FL 414 and FL 434 in Altamonte Springs, FL

FL 414 and US 17 & 92 in Maitland, FL.

FL 414 and Wymore Road in Maitland, FL.

Lake Welch Drive and Old NY 210 in Harriman State Park, NY.

ME 233 at Acadia National Park Road near Bar Harbor, ME (I think I mentioned that one already, but too lazy to sort through many posts).

Colonial Parkway and VA 5 in Williamsburg, VA.  (Even though Colonial Parkway is super two, at this interchange it has a connector road at grade with the parkway that links to VA 5 via North England Street.)

Could everyone please remove the search terms you used to find these examples before posting a link? For those of us on mobile devices,  the links just open the map to that city, rather than the specific place you linked. For example, Tom958's link only loads a map of Atlantic City, and Mark68's only loads a map of Portland.

On a similar note, do Google Maps links include things like the labels on/off setting, or is that set by the browser I'm using? I don't know others' preference, but I always like to leave labels off, because usually what I'm looking at is exactly what the labels hide: i.e., the road itself!

I believe they do include which map style (roads / aerial / aerial w labels / terrain).  Except there doesn't seem to be a way to link to nadir aerial view where 45° imagery is available.  I'm not sure how much of that is actually followed by mobile website, Android app, iOS app, etc.

Most important thing is to remove the "q=...&" from the link, or better, remove the result marker from the map before generating a link.
Wait, it's all Ohio? Always has been.

Does copying the link as a "Short URL" automatically remove the search terms?

Lots of New Jersey examples on this thread, but not one I used to pass through probably weekly at minimum: US 9 @ CR 522.

US 9 has enough on that stretch (516, 18, Union Hill, Gordons Corner, 522, 537) that it probably qualifies as a 'Jersey expressway'.

To an extent, you're right, I was being foolish -- I remembered CR 522 for it's uniqueness (it's the only one the intersecting road crosses under, not over) and because it's the one I passed through most often.  But it's far from your typical Jersey freeway, as there's a traffic light in only half a mile in either direction.

But yeah, there's so many on that section of US 9 (and NJ 18 after the freeway ends) that it's hardly notable.  My bad.

jeffandnicole

I'm going to add a bunch of NJ 38 interchanges to this list (some I don't believe have been noted before, and I honestly don't feel like checking out all 13 pages again to verify):

@ NJ 73
@ NJ 70
@ NJ 41
@ Haddonfield Rd
@ Cuthbert Blvd

It can be argued that while Rt. 38 can be considered a Jersey Freeway, there are enough traffic lights along this road that these interchanges meet the criteria.  And it's a rarity that TWO Jersey Freeways intersect each other at interchanges, but both 38 @ 70 and 38 @ 73 do just that.

roadman65

I distinctly remember one on US 1 someplace between Southern Pines, NC and Sanford, NC.  I do not know if that is where US 1 was bypassed with the new freeway alignment or not, but US 1 was two lanes and it interchanged with another two lane road.

US 6 and NY 17 in Harriman, NY where there is a half diamond that replaced an at grade intersection when US 6 and its grade level overlap with NY 17 was traded in with a more direct connection to freeway NY 17 (future I-86).

Also, I think I might of said this before, but if I did not a few miles east of Harriman you have the US 6 & NY 293 interchange with two 2 lane roads and the main one exiting itself EB and merging WB.

As far as US 9 being Jersey Freeway south of NJ 34, I agree with Kacie as it has many signals despite its many interchanges.  However, north of NJ 34 to US 1 it is all jersey freeway there as lack of signals between Perrine Road in Old Bridge and Smith Street in Avenel.  Technically for US 9 between the US 1 split and Smith Street it is part of the jersey freeway, but for US 1 being that a signal exists south of US 9, the same section is not.

Speaking of US 1 in North Carolina...

When I was a kid and we went to the Outer Banks on vacation, it was back when I-40 ended at Greensboro. A couple of years on the trip, my dad took NC 98 east out of Durham to connect with US 64 outside of Bunn. I remember some interchanges along that road even back then, and I would guess they're still there.

There is one coming to KY 18 (Burlington Pike) at KY 237 (Camp Ernst/North Bend Roads) in Burlington, KY. It will be a SPUI.

roadman65

I do not know if this counts, but Jackson Street and Raymond Boulevard in Newark, NJ.  Due to the fact Jackson Street crosses the Passaic River into Harrison, it is elevated some where Raymond Boulevard being at grade next to the river, crosses under Jackson and has a partial interchange with it. 

Being Raymond Boulevard is one way westbound it does not need a full interchange and to go SB from WB there are side streets that can act like ramps. Ditto for NB to WB as well.

Which one will be the through route and which will have the traffic lights?

And more importantly, WHY ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH? (Caps intentional).

We've got rural communities practically begging to have a new, modern, safe route built to connect them to the interstates and parkways, and they're wasting money on this?

Guess I should really read our six-year plan. On second thought, maybe I don't want to. The amount of stupid and wasteful projects (like the two proposed DDI's on I-75 on NKY's southern fringes) will probably cause me to stroke out.

A DDI conversion involves no new right-of-way and no new or widened bridges, while giving an increase in throughput when turning traffic is predominant.

I think at least one of the I-75 projects is going to involve more ROW as well as other costly improvements on the east side of the interstate.

As to this...

Quote...no new or widened bridges...

That depends on whether the route being diverged is on the bridge or beneath it, and the configuration of the crossing route. The I-44/MO 13 DDI in Springfield has the surface route on the bridge above the interstate. I don't remember if that bridge had to be widened or not.

^ Part of the attraction to building a DDI is that most often there is no need to reconstruct a bridge to accommodate it. In cases where the diverging road is on the bridge, the crossovers occur before and after the bridge on the abutments, so it can still be implemented on an existing bridge without widening.

If I recall, KY 18 will be the thru route. As to why? Because that part of Boone County is growing like a weed.

This is pretty crazy CT-137 (High Ridge Road) and the Merritt Parkway (CT-15). Did I mention it has a jughandle? https://maps.google.com/?ll=41.111127,-73.546396&spn=0.003605,0.007639&t=h&z=17
