It's puzzling to me that I only have one photo from a tens-nineties US hwy concurrency or junction, despite having been to many spots where it occurs. The only photo I could find is from the US 12 and US 95 concurrency in Lewiston, ID:

US 19 and US 90 in Monticello, Florida.  July 19, 2007.



The southern end of US 319's useless concurrency with US 98 in Apalachicola, Florida.  July 26, 2024.



Rather than a different view of US 17/US 92/US 192, I'll play this US 17/US 92 with inverted shields in Haines City, Florida.  Jule 28, 2008.

Photos I post are my own unless otherwise noted.

US11 and US98 in Hattiesburg. This is an exit sign from I-59 but this shows that US98 is along I-59 when the concurrency meets US11.

I found a better photo from Lewiston that actually shows the US 12/95 shields:



You can see the sign from my earlier post in the distance.

I'll go with the obvious one out west, US 20 and US 26.  These two routes have three different concurrent segments, and I'm going with a photo from the only one of these I haven't featured previously: their concurrency in Wyoming. This photo is from the western end of the duplex, in Shoshoni, WY:

I'm sure I've played it before for something, but it belongs on *2x/*2y day.  The former concurrency of US 29, US 220, and US 421 in Greensboro, North Carolina.  May 21, 2005.

Not my photo, but from the 1953 book "U.S. 40: Cross Section of the United States of America" by George Stewart, showing the split of US 24 and US 40 in Limon from that era. I thought I'd share it for fun:
