It's all fun & games until someone summons Cthulhu and brings about the end of the world.

I also collect traffic lights, road signs, fans, and railroad crossing equipment.

Switch up error (technically), should be Recreational Road 9 with a brown shield

^^ I think the yield sign was put on the wrong side of the median.

There's a yield sign on each side.

I meant it could have a left-side and right-side yield signs for the oncoming traffic. The left side being in the median that should be next to the oncoming lanes (left side of the photo only.)

1-15 South. So I guess hanging a left here gives you access to interstates 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15?

They made oneterstates into a real thing.

This is with the directionality, not the sign itself. Oregon Route 11 northbound in Pendleton at the junction with US Route 30. City Center should be US 30 west, not US 30 east: https://maps.app.goo.gl/2C1t5SQNDQE2sgct9

I'll have to see if it's actually still like that in-person next time I go that way, as that latest Google Maps image is from a while ago in 2023.

US 20 hasn't been this way in many decades.
That whole assembly needs replaced. There is no way without already knowing the route what those "business" signs are actually saying. I'm surprised that that US 31 shield survived that long in that condition.

Perhaps there had been a BUSINESS banner above it, which blew off in a storm.

Not that I can see from looking at older captures.

Those signs obviously date from when it did go that way. They're not erroneous, just not updated.

I would say that not updating them for decades is "erroneous". Also, if TravelMapping is correct, there should be a US-20-BL sign pointing straight. That would have been a simple tweak. Or, they could put TO above the EAST US-20, which wouldn't be particularly useful, but would at least be correct.

But I do like heavily loaded sign assemblies like that.

Since this is an intersection between Brisban St and Walnut St in Paxtang, I am thinking this sign is an error for not having black lines jut out in both directions from the middle.  The warning sign only applies for Brisban St.
