Best Signed Rural Highway Segment

As some of you know, a few months ago I went out to Delaware to clinch the state highway system in that state, because that's the kind of thing corco does.

I'm very slowly working on getting it all posted to my website, and tonight as I was uploading photos, I noticed something ridiculous.

http://corcohighways.org/?p=2386

On DE 14 eastbound between the Maryland line and DE 14 Truck in Harrington, there are no fewer than 13 separate reassurance shields/trailblazers. This is over an 8.7 mile stretch. That's a reassurance shield every 2/3 of a mile or so, for no apparent reason.

Are there any rural highway segments with a greater density of reassurance shields in at least one direction that you know of? Putting some parameters on this:

- Segments = a segment of state highway at least five miles in length between two other state highways or a terminus
- Rural = outside of an incorporated city with at least 10,000
- Highway = not limited access

Quote- Rural = outside of an MSA

Technically, your own example is inside of an MSA:  the Dover, DE MSA which is defined as Kent County.

Well, shit, edited.
