Isolated Traffic Lights

[Caps81943]

What are some of the most isolated traffic lights (or small clusters, say ≤5 or so lights in one area) around, as in very far away from other signalized intersections? I'm more familiar with the US and to some extent Canada, but I'm interested in anywhere! That being said, here are some examples that I know of (and the kind of thing I'm looking for):

Regionally for me, it is tough, as Virginia seems to be very prolific in its installation of stoplights. An example I can think of is this intersection in Franklin, WV. The nearest light is about 30 miles north in Petersburg. I know this pales in comparison to places in the west. Speaking of which,

This cluster of three lights in West Yellowstone, WY is about 50 miles south of the closest light (Big Sky).

This light in Monticello, UT is about 50 miles south of the closest light (Moab),

And, potentially the king of them all, This light in the Denali tourist area is ~115 miles from the nearest light (Fairbanks area).

Where else can this phenomenon be found? Are there Alaskan bush/panhandle towns with signals? A dot on the map in the midwest or mountains somewhere? An isolated island in the Pacific with just a couple lights?

No traffic lights for many many miles in all directions. Beacons, yes, but no signals.

Also, there's something off about these signs.

Out in Platteville, we have about 8 signals scattered around the town. There's no more until you get to Dubuque to the west, Galena to the south, Dodgeville to the east, and... Viroqua to the north (including a wrong-way concurrency), I suppose. It's not really that isolated, it's probably a 20-30 mile drive in any direction, but it's definitely isolated.

Platteville has the only signals in all of Grant County. Prairie du Chien which is about 50 miles northwest also has signals. All of Lafayette County, just to the east, has no signals at all in the whole county.

I honestly can't think of one traffic light on US-10 between where the freeway ends north of Farwell to Scottville. There are zero traffic lights in Lake County. It has a four way stop at M-66. Scottville is a little east of Ludington and there is a traffic light at Main Street in the middle of Scottville. This would be the furthest east on US-10 that there is a traffic signal.

The traffic lights in Limon are at least 40 miles away from any other lights.

They're too geographically accurate. It's easy to tell because the St Louis 'hump' is visible, while normally it's skipped over. I have seen geographically accurate ones for Ohio's outline too (note that a 3 digit number is fitted into a 2 digit size in this example too), and like with Missouri's, looks off with the amount of black space once you're used to the route sign.

Are any stoplights closer to Tucumcari (NM) than those in Clovis?  That's about 80 miles.  I don't know if it counts;  Tucumcari has like three or four stoplights.

There is only one or two stoplights in Nuuk, Greenland.

There are none anywhere else in Greenland.  Other than that temporary situation during road construction a couple of years ago, there are none in Nunavut (Canada) either.

Are there any stoplights closer to Nuuk than the Reykjavík (Iceland) area?

This light in Monticello, UT is about 50 miles south of the closest light (Moab),

This distance is nearly matched by at least 3 other locations in Utah - the light in Delta is about 50 miles from the nearest lights in Nephi and Salina, and the lights in Beaver and Bryce Canyon City are both about 50 miles from Cedar City.

I can't find anything longer in Utah. Seems 50 miles is sort of the ceiling for that part of the country.

If they're still there, in Iqaluit. A little over 300 miles closer.

Edit again - Looks like there are some in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, NL, which is a little closer than Reykjavik.

Grand Marais, MN's lone signal (MN 61/Broadway) is 55 miles from the next closest stoplight in Silver Bay (MN 61/Lake CSAH 5). That Silver Bay light is new within the last 15 years, so before that the closest lights were 70 miles away, flip a coin between Two Harbors, MN or Thunder Bay.
