Non-Interstate Highways with Numbered Exits

[NE2]

However, Virginia's shortest Interstate, I-381, has one numbered exit (Exit 0) and two lettered exits (exit A for I-81 North, and exit B for I-81 South).

what Interstates have no exit numbers?

I know two of Virginia's shortest Interstates, I-195 and I-564, do not have exit numbers.  However, Virginia's shortest Interstate, I-381, has one numbered exit (Exit 0) and two lettered exits (exit A for I-81 North, and exit B for I-81 South).

I-381's sole exit with I-81 has been Exit 1A-B back to at least 2008...

I think Wikipedia's to blame.

The Wikipedia article lists the traffic signal at Key St. as "Exit 0" , but according to Street View, it's not signed anything like an exit–not even given the NEXT SIGNAL type of signage that's sometimes used on high-volume arterials.

The article also misleadingly states that the I-81 interchange is "signed as exits A (north) and B (south)" , though elsewhere, the article adds: "Except where indicated, all exit numbers begin with 1."

(An example of a road that changes back and forth is US-29 in Virginia, which has "freeway" sections, "expressway" sections, urban and suburban arterial sections, and at least one two-lane road section through the Manassas Battlefield from the War Between the States, and nowhere does it have exit numbers that I can recall.

US 29 Business freeway through Lynchburg along with US 501 continuing the freeway has sequential exit numbers.

Some bypasses in southwestern Virginia have them, notably Christiansburg/Blacksburg...

Mike

Thanks for that. I'll be damned if I can remember the last time I was on what is now 29 Business near Lynchburg. I can remember the road itself, which reminded me of a Pennsylvania Interstate, but that's about all I remember. Has to be no later than 1998 since I went that way. On all the most recent trips I've used the super-duper new bypass. But you know, that's why I said "that I can recall," though I figured it'd be froggie rushing to "correct" me.

It won't surprise you to hear I have only been to Blacksburg once and I followed the smell of livestock shit rather than the road signs (In all seriousness: I was astonished when I got there. I had to take a huge dump and I went to the first men's room available, located in the car park I used. No booth. No door, just a wall that was about shoulder height for someone sitting on the toilet.....oh, and there was a folding chair facing the shitter so the guy waiting to go next could sit and wait. WTF, do they want you to have a conversation or something?????? "Now, I think the best wiping technique is as follows.....").

I don't know if US 15 has exit numbers.

Nevada only has a handful of non-Interstate highways that are freeway grade:

US 95 and US 395 both are major freeways in Las Vegas and Reno/Carson City, respectively, and both have exit numbers. (Granted both now overlap interstates for part of the freeway length, but both highways existed as freeways prior to the establishment of the cosigned Interstate.)

Clark County 215 is freeway for much of its length, and also has exit numbers. However, this is and extension of I-215 and will eventually be redesignated as such.

Summerlin Parkway in Las Vegas is the only major freeway in the state that does not have exit numbers. This is a City of Las Vegas owned facility, not NDOT (or future NDOT), and it already is a bit substandard with signage for an urban freeway (except near US 95, which is work NDOT did as part of US 95 projects).

The only other non-Interstate freeway in Nevada is unsigned SR 171, the McCarran airport connector. But it's so short and only has one non-terminus exit in only one direction, so exit numbers aren't necessary.

US 67's freeway in AR has them.

TN840 (still not a interstate)

NJ55

[mariethefoxy]

NY 27 has numbered exits they start from 37 assuming they would have extended the expressway into Nassau which never happened, NY 135 has numbered exits, so does NY 440, however the short NY 231 expressway doesn't.

[Bickendan]

WA 14 has exit numbers.
As for Oregon, as noted, US 26 and OR 217 do. US 30 doesn't for its lone exit to NW Thurman St.
OR 18 does, at least along the OR 22 overlap and one near Willamina on a Super 2 segment.
OR 22 has one with OR 99W, but not on the West Salem freeway portion. Its exit number sequence resets at I-5.
OR 569 has them, and OR 126 east of I-105 is hit or miss.
I doubt Delta Highway has any, but it's a Lane County freeway, not ODOT.
OR 99E doesn't along McGloughlin Blvd north of Milwaukie or on MLK through the Delta Park area.
OR 224 doesn't yet, but that will change with Phase 2 of the Sunrise Freeway construction.
I'd be surprised if OR 62 didn't have any once the expressway through north Medford is built.
US 97 has them.
OR 140 has one line exit number on the Klamath Falls expressway.

Starting to pop up in Colorado. Exits have been numbered on the E-470 tollway probably since it opened (Mile 0 at I-25 on the south end, not surprisingly). Recently, they have shown up on CO-115 where it has a few interchanges leaving Colorado Springs to the south, and on CO-21, Powers Blvd., in its brief freeway sections like at the Platte Avenue (U.S. 24) exit.

When we hit Denver 2 weeks ago, I noticed that on C-470 Eastbound, they are adding exit numbers when upgrading signage.  As of now, C-470 is numbered from I-70 to Quincy Avenue (Exit 7) heading east and most of those BGS are newer.  I didn't see numbered exits going the other way, except for the new Alameda Parkway interchange (Exit 2), yet it looked like all the westbound BGSs east/south of Alameda were older -- probably original C-470 signage.

Ohio has been slowly converting their non-interstate freeways to numbered exits, with SR-10 in Lorain County being one of the earliest from US-20 to I-480.  SR-2 also in Lorain Co. has been up for a while, but originally mileage based from the Huron Co. line and not consistently at every exit.

Pennsylvania has some examples of this.

PA 581
PA 378
US 219?
US 119 and US 422
US 22?

US 22?

Ahhhh forgot all about US 422 and PA 378. 378 spent the early part of its life as I-378 back when I-78 ran over the current US 22 freeway in Bethlehem. The exit numbers are a holdover from that.

Almost everything in the NYC/Long Island metro area has exit numbers, which is interesting because NY 17 is the only non-interstate outside of this area to have them (except for NY 481, NY 390, and NY 590, but they're really interstate extensions, so I don't count them; US 15 had exit numbers, but it no longer counts because it's I-99).  I-587, I-790, I-695, I-895, and I-478 lack exit numbers.  I-78 has them despite being nothing more than a one-way traffic circle connected to the Holland Tunnel in NY.  Go figure.

What about exit B1 on the Berkshire Connector?

Heh.  I-587, I-695, I-895 and I-478 lack exits between their end points.

Georgia does this for GA 400 and US 78, but kept sequential numbering for them.

Georgia is all over the place on this topic.

US 78 - yes, sequential
GA 316 - no
GA 400 - yes, sequential
GA 166 - no
GA 141 - no
US 80 (Columbus) - yes, sequential
US 27 Alt (Columbus) - no
US 19/41 (Griffin) - no
US 19/82 (Albany) - yes, sequential
US 27 (Rome) - no
Athens Perimeter - yes, mileage-based
US 84 (Bainbridge) - no

Now that I think about it, looking at that list, it seems like there's a rough distance cutoff. Anything over about 10 miles in length gets exit numbers. As for why the Athens Perimeter is the only one with mileage-based numbers, I'm guessing that's because it's the only one where the freeway makes up the entire route (GA 10 Loop, in this case).

US 15 in MD does not.  Nor does it in PA.

[Thing 342]

I can't think of a  non-interstate in VA that has exit numbers according to absolute mileage, but several do have numbers based upon relative mileage or sequence:

The Chesapeake Expressway (VA-168, numbers based upon distance from NC)
The Lynchburg Expressway (US-29 BUS and US-501, numbered sequentially southward (then northward along US-501), starting at the bridge over the James. The super-2 and Madison Heights portions do not have numbers, however)
The Christiansburg Bypass (US-460, numbered sequentially westbound, the expressway around Blacksburg is not numbered, however)
VA-267 (numbered sequentially, increasing eastbound)
VA-895's interchange with Airport Drive is signed as Exit 3, despite none of the other exits having numbers.

What about exit B1 on the Berkshire Connector?

That's the interchange with I-90.  It's numbered with I-90 exiting itself because Thruway (see: exit 24), but it's not exactly a junction off the interstate system.

[shadyjay]

The following have freeway sections, but no exit numbers

US 6
CT 3
CT 12
CT 20
CT 32
CT 78
CT 349
CT 695

CT 695 will very shortly have exit numbers as its getting new signs and mile-based exits in conjunction with the I-395 project.  Previously, it did have one exit number, #90, SB/WB, for Squaw Rock Road.  The NB/EB interchange for Ross Road just east of Squaw Rock Road was not numbered, or signed for that matter.  Just a simple EXIT sign in the gore.

If CT 20 gets exit numbers, I personally think it should start with #1 (Old County Road), rather than CT 20's mileage from its western terminus.  I'd sign the freeway portion as an I-X91 as its the main route between I-91 and the Airport and worthy of a 3DI.

[Tom958]

US 78 - yes, sequential

Then there's the other piece of US 78 at Monroe, which is not numbered.

Georgia mileposts its state highways by county, which would make using existing milepost numbers pretty illogical and incoherent. Why they didn't make an exception for 400 is one of GDOT's many mysteries.

Whoa, wait... was GA 365 ever mileposted by county?

[slorydn1]

The various US-70 freeway segments between Raliegh and the coast in NC are trending towards numbering. Most of the exits in the New Bern area are numbered now, at least on the BGS's leading up to them if not the actual exit sign in the gore (exit 417 for the Neuse River Bridge from the Freedom Memorial Bridge now has the number on the gore sign as well).

I-587 is a "maybe" thanks to the park-and-ride ramp immediately east of the roundabout
