North terminus of Iowa 148 at I-80.



South terminus of Iowa 173 at IA-83.

Would just like to give you a friendly reminder of the thread's rules:

Quote from: jbnv on August 11, 2016, 09:09:10 AM
2. Limit one picture per route per person. If you have pictures of I-10 and US-10, you can post one picture from each route. Two people can post their own pictures of I-10 per rule #1.
3. Limit three pictures per post. (Just to keep posts from becoming enormously long.) Once someone else posts a picture, you can post again.

Edit to add one more contribution, another routes I got pictures of yesterday: Iowa 25 at I-80.

Most of my US 176 shields are on green exit signs from various interstates, but I found just one that's not.  South of Santee, South Carolina.  December 27, 2010.



This sign from New Brunswick 1 didn't make the 175 cut yesterday, but makes the 176 cut today.  August 9, 2014.



And my only New York 176 example, taken in Cato.  April 20, 2007.
