I-5 is the only x5 interstate to touch both Mexican and Canadian borders.

We'd better get busy and extend I-25 towards Regina, then!

NJ 92: Both ends don't exist, but almost did. (I've had 3 beers since I started this post. Celebrating the return of electricity.)

There's been a lot of funny stuff on this board, but outside of the Alanland thread, this is the best I've seen recently.  Cheers, my good man.

I laughed almost as much at these:
QuoteNJ 66: Both ends are at strange-shaped traffic circles with 2-digit odd-numbered highways beginning with "3".
NJ 70: Both ends flow seamlessly into multi-lane divided highways beginning with "3" in a suburban milieu.
NJ 77: Both ends are at a odd-numbered 4x route in a sizable South Jersey town that's not the county seat.

IA 141's west end is at an interchange with I-29, exit 127. Its east end is at an interchange with I-80... exit 127.

WA LOOP 100. This is cheating, though, because it only has 1 end.  But they are exactly the same character.

I know how a route can have no ends (continuous loop) or two ends. Or even three or more ends. But one end? That does, indeed, strike me as cheating. Does 100 follow a Möbius strip?

I agree with what Steve is hinting at... that WA 100 does in fact have two ends.  It's just that one of those ends is at itself, and is only 0.06 miles away from the other, despite having traveled 4.68 miles.

NE2

One end would be a sort of lasso shape, where the circular part is one-way.

U.S. 101 both starts and ends at an interchange with I-5...but for much of its length (in northern California, and nearly all of Oregon and Washington) is a narrow, winding two lane road.

NJ 83: Both ends are rural Shore intersections with major through roads. No one's heard of Dennis. I thought I'd just throw that last one in there.


The one end is off of 9, if I remember right, off of the stretch of 9 that is between exits 13 and 17 on the Parkway.  Shortly after on 9 north is the driving range with the overpriced bucket of balls. :)  I don't remember if the mainland area there is Dennis, though, or if that is further SW toward the Delaware bay.  All of this near one of my favorite places to be - Sea Isle City

Practically every state highway in Nevada (outside of Las Vegas or Reno/Sparks) starts as a rural two-lane road and ends as a rural two-lane road...
