M-102/8 Mile Road has a full limited access interchange with US 24/Telegraph Road.

The "Farmington Bypass" which is now part of M-5 used to be the western end of M-102, and it is freeway (although it only has 2 partial interchanges).

But since OK-102 is part of a freeway, we don't have to go down the path of "does a former route count?"

Forgot about that one and even lived off M-5 for awhile too.

I would not include US 48 in Buckhannon.  That second "interchange" is only a single off-ramp.  If it were a full interchange it'd be a different story.

Yeah, but if we do that, the thread is over, and that's boring.

I consider US 48 to count as a freeway, and thus would like another answer.

It's still two interchanges and an overpass with no at grade intersections for a 2 mile stretch. It's built to full freeway standards and is a freeway segment.

Wouldn't be the first time on this forum...

Okay, so go lay down and have a nap, content in the knowledge that 48 is the lowest unused freeway number in the US.

Anyone who considers US-48 in Buckhannon to be a freeway is welcome to keep searching for an answer they consider more accurate.

Does anyone know of a 106?

After going through every 106 I could find in the United States in TM...unfortunately not.

NY 106, on Long Island, comes close. If not for the southbound carriageway's at-grade intersection at the north end of the NY 107 overlap, it would have consecutive interchanges. But alas, that ruins it. Slightly further south, I-495's use of service roads where it meets NY 106/107 also ruins what would otherwise be back-to-back cloverleaf interchanges.

TX 48 East of Brownsville may qualify. There are two exits in quick succession with no driveways or crossovers in between them. Also a small stretch East of those exits with a jersey barrier and no driveways.
