Okay, back on topic:  I came across this pedestrian detour END sign today.

Took a two-day trip around far northern NY and the Adirondacks:

END! NY 12E:



END! NY 411 (buggy windshield):



END! NY 184:



END! NY 56:



END! NY 420 (Where's Waldo-style):



END! NY 11B:



Obligatory night fuzzy END! NY 410:



Not fuzzy END! NY 126:



END! NY 177:



Fuzzy END! NY 9L (does not end at another intersecting route):



Almost didn't post this one, but what the heck:  Horrifically bad photo of END! Oneida County Route 840 (Judd Road):

Here's an unusual one:



US-99 was decomissioned in 1964, but eventually signed as an "historic" route. At the very southern end of it in Calexico CA, it looks like they preserved the original sign, or created a very good facsimile. This is an old pic, but it looks like it's still there:

Western terminus of Alabama SR 40

Oh, I like the reflection in the puddle.

It is an erroneous END Sign since VA 189 continues east on an useless multiplex with US 58 to the Holland area in Suffolk.  (https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10221483990849677&set=a.10221484172214211)

Holy wow is that a gross sign. Great find!

This is supposed to be END I-205 near Manteca, and the END banner is still there, but the Interstate shield has been missing since at least 2012 (it does appear in Google Maps' 2007 image).

END signs are fairly uncommon in Oregon, but there are a few, starting with two US Route END signs:

 

Sadly, there is no Newport counterpart for the END US 20 in Boston.

A few state highway END signs:

Some more from Washington:

 

 

 

 

 

WA 409 ends at the Wauna Ferry dock on the Columbia River.  Also, this was the end of the northern segment of WA 501 in Ridgefield, but this part of 501 was recently relinquished by WSDOT:

Interesting variations in the END SPUR signage, but my favourite is the END WA 409 200 FT. They couldn't just post that at the end of the dock?

It's the last chance to prevent drivers from becoming divers.

506 and 508 are the first Washington end assemblies I've seen use a placard instead of a uni-sign.

Yeah, not sure what's going on there. Maybe WSDOT didn't want to add to the sign clutter up ahead at the dock. Still, the "200 FT" seems pointlessly specific.

It's the last chance to prevent drivers from becoming divers.

I grew up not far from there, and I can attest that it's pretty likely one or more of the locals have taken that plunge over the years.

My photos of those are from 2005. I just looked them up on GSV, and it seems both have since been replaced with uni-signs. Uniformity wins again!

M-37's north terminus in a cul-de-sac at Old Mission Point, north of Traverse City:


I-475's south terminus in Grand Blanc Township, MI (should have a South direction tab with the I-75 shield):

Here are a few I have from (mostly) northern California.  Hopefully, I'm not duplicating any already posted here, but I'm far too lazy to scroll through 23 pages to find out.

 

 

Both ends of CA 263:

BL I-75 ends on the south side of Grayling, MI:

SR 619 does not truly go here to VA 234, but anyway... (https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10221808874771572&set=a.10221809018135156)

Continuing through the archives, here are some Idaho ENDS:

Why does the END ID 52 have an arrow? Is the END where it's pointing?

[Rothman]

END! NY 444:



END! NY 371:



END! NY 370:



END! NY 252:



END! NY 130:



END! NY 93:



END! NY 63:



END! NY 15:



END! NY 104A:

Why does the END ID 52 have an arrow? Is the END where it's pointing?

ID 52 here is about to cross the Snake River into Oregon. So I guess because ID 52 technically ends in the middle of the bridge, they felt the need to indicate the actual end was still ahead?

The route carries on as OR 52 across the bridge, but that ends just 1.6 miles later at its junction with OR 201. I posted that END sign back in the Oregon bunch.
