Does Denver, PA and Denver, CO count?  Not the same highway, but the same number, I-76.

I saw that US 40 former example I posted 5 years ago, did a quick check in Google Maps and...

US 50: California, MO and California :sombrero:.
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

I'm also disallowing St. Louis/St. Louis County and Baltimore/Baltimore County, though the two cities are independent of the counties sharing their names.


But that's not consistent with allowing Kansas City KS and MO, etc
Center lane merges are the most unsafe thing ever, especially for unfamiliar drivers.

Control cities should be actual cities/places that travelers are trying to reach.

I-70 serves, or at least it did in I-70S days, Washington, DC and Washington, PA.


This probably belongs in Fictional but I think it would have been better to have I-70 go to Washington and I-270 go to Baltimore.

US 51: Madison, MS and Madison, WI (I've always admired this one)
I-75: Miami, FL and Miamisburg, OH or Miami University OR Miami County.
Just a reminder that US 6, 49, 50, and 98 are superior to your fave routes :)


EXTEND 206 SO IT CAN MEET ITS PARENT.

Miami County, Miami Township, etc in OH (which are distinct places)

Why wouldn't it be? Kansas City KS and MO are two separate municipalities with the same name. Kansas City KS's government is also the government of Wyandotte County, but there are cities (like Edwardsville) in Wyandotte County that are not part of the unified government.

I-78 goes through both Bethlehem, PA and Bethlehem, NJ. 
Then I-78 also enters both Union Township, Union County, NJ and Union Township, Hunterdon County, NJ.

Both alignments of I-76 have exits for Akron (CO & OH).

You're agreeing with me. OP said he wouldn't count St Louis and St Louis County as separate locales despite them actually being separate governments. But he named Bristol VA/TN and Texarkana AR/TX in the first comment. Which seems inconsistent to me.

A weird one out here in CA:  CA 20 crosses much of Yuba County (E>W), then goes over the Feather River into Sutter County, with the first city it hits (the county seat, no less) being Yuba City

US 50 goes through Johnson County, KS, and Johnson County, MO, only separated by Jackson County, MO.

Also, this might be a stretch since it doesn't really go through either of these cities, but I-40 has exits for both Las Vegas, NM, (US 84) and Las Vegas, NV (US 95).

IL/MO 110/CKC: Brookfield, MO; Brookfield, IL (The Eisenhower Expressway/I-290/IL 110 is slightly north of Brookfield, and neither the Manheim Rd/US 12/20/45 nor 1st Ave/IL 171 exits are signed for Brookfield; Brookfield is between the Ike and the Stevenson/I-55)
