Bird-In-Hand and Intercourse, PA. A problem would be trying to keep the horses and buggies off it.


They'll have their own lanes and the control city fanboys will Lose-Their-Shit.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"

Quote from: I-55 on April 13, 2025, 09:39:41 PMThe correct question is "if ARDOT hasn't signed it, why does Google show it?" and the answer as usual is "because Google Maps signs stuff incorrectly all the time"

Quote from: Scott5114 on August 31, 2025, 07:01:23 AM2025-08-31: What are some lesser-known types of interchanges?

Triclo interchange - three interconnected cloverleaf interchanges

Fractal interchange - like a diamond interchange, but each exit leads you to a further exit

Phallic interchange - looks like the shape of a phallus when viewed from above

Maytag interchange - Whirlpool interchange constructed before April 2006

Nondirectional T interchange - ramps exit in opposite direction from direction of travel, then just keep going

Omnidirectional T interchange - all ramps from all directions end up in your intended direction of travel

Five-level diamond - highway, crossroad, HOV lanes on both, frontage roads on both, all grade separated

SPRI - single point rural interchange

That one Amish group of towns that I forgot the name of that has 6 or 7 different cities under the same name, just different directions, and a separate exit for each and every one of them.
