Three state exit puzzle

In Pennsylvania there is a sign for New Jersey Route 23, for an exit in New York on interstate 84.

Is there another situation where there is a sign in one state for an exit in another state for a road in a third state? Bonus points if the road never enters the third state.

I think Exit 1 off I-44 in Missouri almost counts. Eastbound on I-44, the first advance sign is in Oklahoma, and the other road, U.S. Route 400, is located almost entirely in Kansas, although it has an extremely small section in Missouri, and I think the interchange is completely in Missouri. In other words: Exit sign in Oklahoma for an exit in Missouri for a road that except for one tiny segment is entirely within Kansas.

Similarly, the signs on the Outer Loop of the Capital Beltway for I-295 almost count. There are signs in Virginia for the exit in Maryland. Most of I-295 is located in the District of Columbia, but there's very a small piece (less than a mile) located in Maryland before the district line. Once you exit the Beltway onto I-295, you're committed to entering DC unless you make an illegal U-turn.

(The District not being a state is a technicality here, IMO.)

commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.
