Quote from: kphoger on June 16, 2025, 09:12:37 AMI'd actually be more interested to see "longest" defined as "number of exits in a row" rather than "miles".

My longest stretch of 17 was undone by the addition of a couple of new exits.  Along the same stretch, I've also used the SB Goreville weigh station and the both Rend Lake rest areas, but not the Post Oak rest area.

I-57 in Illinois
#44 : I-24
#45 : IL-148
#53 : Main St, Marion
#54A : IL-13
#54B : The Hill Ave, did not exist back then
#59 :  (Herrin Rd), Johnston City
#65 : IL-149
#71 : IL-14
#77 : IL-154
#83 : (North Ave), Ina
#92 : EB I-64
#94 : Veterans Memorial Dr, did not exist back then
#95 : IL-15
#96 : WB I-64
#103 : (South St), Dix
#109 : IL-161
#116 : US-50
#127 : (Kinoka Rd), Kinmundy
#135 : IL-185

So...7.

From the stretch in my thread you're referencing, 63 consecutive exits on eastbound I-70 from Exit 171 (US6/US24) to Exit 295 (BL70 - Watkins).

jlam

Mine is probably the same stretch as in the other thread, between (but not including) I-25 CO exits 221 and 293.

Exit 223: 120th Avenue
Exit 225: 136th Ave
Exit 226: 144th Ave
Exit 228: E-470
Exit 229: CO 7
Exit 232: Erie Pkwy
Exit 235: CO 52
Exit 240: CO 119
Exit 243: CO 66
Exit 245: CR 34
Exit 250: CO 56
Exit 252: CO 60 East
Exit 254: To CO 60 West
Exit 255: CO 402
Exit 257: US 34
Exit 259: Crossroads Blvd
Exit 262: CO 392
Exit 265: Harmony Rd
Exit 268: Prospect Rd
Exit 269A: CO 14 EB
Exit 269B: CO 14 WB
Exit 271: Mountain Vista Dr
Exit 278: CO 1
Exit 281: Owl Canyon Rd
Exit 288: Buckeye Rd

So 25 exits.

Looks like 150 exits along my stretch from Logan Airport to the Ohio Turnpike on I-90.  Quick and dirty.  Probably off by a couple.

100 exits, from the end of I-95 in Miami, north to Palm Coast Parkway. Easy enough to do if you lived in America's Cul-de-Sac.

34 exits on I-65 between TN 129 and Daniel Payne Drive in Birmingham might be next, a few exit gaps might shoot that one up close to the previous mark.

Max Rockatansky

I've been on every entrance and exit ramp along CA 99 from Wheeler Ridge to Exit 200 for Sultran Drive/Liberty Avenue north of Atwater.  I've never bothered to count how many exits that is.

cockroachking

I count 31 exits along I-84 (East) between I-81 in Scranton and Exit 69 in NY (which I can't ever recall using).

CoreySamson

My answer depends on if restrict it to freeway or if you allow expressways as well. I have been on 14 straight exits on TX 288 from the TX 332 interchange in north Freeport to FM 1462 in Rosharon, but part of that route is expressway. If you exclude the expressway portion, my number drops to 13 (or if you exclude this stub, 7).

For US highways, I have been on 7 exits of US 75 between I-44 and 121st Street in Tulsa, OK (soon to be 9 once the 141st interchange opens). For interstates, my answer is also 7, as I have been on exits 12B through 18 on I-40 in Memphis, TN.

Honestly, living in Texas, with its myriad of slip ramps and redundant exits in rural areas, makes this exercise difficult.

66 exits between exit 610 on I-20 west of Marshall to exit 138 in Louisiana in Rayville at US 425


2nd Longest: 57 exits on I-49 between I-10 and I-20. If I'm allowed to bridge the gap, then 62 exits total up to exit 221.

I have 17 in a row on I-95 between east Baltimore (I-895) and just south of Wilmington (I-495).

I hope there's suitable historical marker near this exit which explains this road's name...it seems to conjure up a spell gone wrong on a very rainy day.

Looks like it's 44 consecutive exits, same stretch as my longest distance, I-90 from Thruway Exit 36 to Mass Pike Exit 94.

Looks like my longest is 47 on I-65 in KY/IN from KY 44 to MLK St

Others at 30+:
35 on I-65 in IN from 38th St to I-90
30 on I-80 from I-294 to OH 49
30 on I-465 (all of them)

I'm missing three exits in Indy that would join my two longest and make mine 85.
Indiana: counties 100%, highways 100%
Illinois: counties 100%, highways 61%
Michigan: counties 100%, highways 56%
Wisconsin: counties 86%, highways 23%

I'm actually not sure anymore, but it's probably I-35 here in Kansas.  14 exits.

I'm not counting the Bazaar cattle pens, because they shouldn't count as an exit.

Funny enough, this was only possible because I recently took the wrong exit from KTA to Wichita;  otherwise, I'd never have used Exit #53B.  I'd used the K-96 portion of the double-trumpet-like-thing-y a few times, but not the I-35 portion till then.

39 : (71st St), Haysville
42 : I-135
45 : K-15
50 : Webb Rd, Wichita
53A : US-54/US-400
53B : K-96
57 : (21st St), Andover
71 : K-254
76 : US-77
92 : K-177
127A : I-335
127B : US-50
128 : Industrial Rd, Emporia
130 : K-99
