April 17, 2018:  A duplex or junction of an interstate and a route of a different type, whose numbers add up to a multiple of 100.  (A sum equating to the number 100 itself also counts.)

A more organized way of thinking about it is:
  • One interstate
  • One non-interstate
  • Numbers add up to 100, 200, 300, etc.
I-76 + 224 = 300

Does this count, or does it have to be the actual Interstate itself?

1.  We did a challenge strikingly similar to this two months ago:

QuoteFebruary 25, 2018: 1 is the most common digit. Post road signs/assemblies (either is allowed) containing at least 5 different digits and no 1s.

2.  Can I use my own photo of the same sign assembly?  I can just post the same thing haha.

This photo gets right to the point near Pine Bluff, AR:

I have some shots of US61/WIS-35/WIS-81 on their own (they form a concurrency) but the inclusion of WIS-129 allows for some overachieving:

Not for the same Challenge; only one photo per answer is allowed (see Rule 6). But you could use your own photo of an assembly that someone else posted in a different Challenge.
