:hmmm: Well, how do I describe this? I'm thinking of like, freeways that don't end in an interchange with other interstate highways, and end at a limited-access US/State highway at a traffic light or stop sign.


I-780 in Vallejo ends at Curtola Parkway @ Lemon Street and I-280 in San Francisco ends at King Street.


I-110 in Los Angeles ends at Gaffey Street. Note Gaffey Street is listed as either former CA-110 or unsigned CA-110 depending on the source.

#76
I-705 ends at Schuster Parkway in Tacoma.

I-605 in the Los Angeles area ends on Huntington Dr. in Duarte

I-710 has 2 ends one at Valley Blvd in Alhambra and another end at at the CA-134@ I-210 interchange as unsigned CA-710 or proposed I-710 gap depending on the source.


idk

I-10 in Santa Monica west end is at Pacific Coast Highway.

I drove this section of 65 both directions last week, and because of this thread, I was paying closer attention to signs than I normally do. There is a "65 ends 1 mile" sign at MM 260.8.  Taken literally, that would put the end at MM 261.8, which is just past the Toll Road exit but not all the way to 12/20. However, the 262 mile marker is still there, the signs on 12/20 still say 65, not "To 65", and there is still a 65 shield on the SB lanes right after turning off 12/20, so even if by definition 65 ends at the Toll Road on some log book, that last segment of road is still functionally and practically part of 65.

I'm not surprised. InDOT has been very loose over the years (witness all the routes inside 465 in Indianapolis, and now around Lafayette for US 52/231 & IN 25/26) with mileage and where they drop mile markers, and they've been that way as far back as I can remember.

Nothing they do with mileage would surprise me in one bit.

I-395 just dumps you off in the middle of DC, as does I-66.

I-264 transitions to the grid of VA Beach on it's eastern end.

I-89 in NH ends at a stoplight after intersecting I-93.

I-391 ends at stoplights in Holyoke, MA, as does I-291 in Chicopee.

I-787 ends in Albany at-grade at a signalized intersection, though I think technically it's milage count stops before the carriageways undivide

Had anyone mentioned how I-49 just ends at the TX state line in Texarkana?

I build roads on Minecraft. Like, really good roads.
Interstates traveled:
4/5/10*/11**/12**/15/25*/29*/35(E/W[TX])/40*/44**/49(LA**)/55*/64**/65/66*/70°/71*76(PA*,CO*)/78*°/80*/95°/99(PA**,NY**)

*/** indicates a terminus/termini being traveled
° Indicates a gap (I.E Breezwood, PA.)

more room plz

It's pretty much understood that this particular I-49 situation is considered temporary pending funding and construction of I-49 north from there.  Also, the state line just happens to correspond with the existing facility for the Interstate corridor (US 71/59) -- the logical place to temporarily end the freeway.

Technically it follows "exit 1" to the Thruway.
