Multiple Concurrencies in Different Directions

[Hoss6884]

While on a day trip from Pittsburgh to Huntington and back, my friend and I noticed that WV 2 and WV 62 were concurrent in two different places but in different directions (one right-way concurrency and one wrong-way concurrency).  I have to imagine this is quite rare - are there any other examples of this throughout the country?

While on a day trip from Pittsburgh to Huntington and back, my friend and I noticed that WV 2 and WV 62 were concurrent in two different places but in different directions (one right-way concurrency and one wrong-way concurrency).  I have to imagine this is quite rare - are there any other examples of this throughout the country?

GMSV links (since we didn't realize until after we had past the signs what had happened):

North WV 2/South WV 62 concurrency
North WV 2/North WV 62 concurrency

That's due to the realignment of US 33 onto the Ravenswood bridge and I-77.

An example I can think of is in Chattanooga. If you enter the city from the south, you're traveling on US 11 north, US 41 south and US 64 east. The other direction is US 11 south, US 41 north and US 64 west. (Forget 72 and 76, they are not relevant for purposes of this discussion.

US 11 and US 64 separate from US 41 at 20th Street. The follow 20th Street, Washington Street and 23rd Street. US 41 continues on Broad Street, then turns on Main Street, then turns again on Dodds Avenue.

When US 11/64 reach Dodds Avenue, they turn left, where they then join US 41 north. There's a six-block concurrency for US 11 north, US 41 north and US 64 east -- or in reverse, US 11 south, US 41 south and US 64 west.

So, US 11 and US 41 have both a same-direction concurrency and an opposite-direction concurrency in Chattanooga.

I'm fairly sure there are several instances of this happening in Kentucky. But how about two separate opposite-direction concurrencies? One I can think of is US 460 and KY 713. Through Mt. Sterling, there's a short concurrency of US 60 west, US 460 east, KY 11 south and KY 713 west. In Means, at the Montgomery/Menifee line, there's yet another concurrency of US 460 east and KY 713 west.

US 1 and I-95 do this: a wrong-way concurrency in Norwood, MA due to US 1 no longer using surface roads to head towards Boston (but rather Route 128 and I-93)...but then same-direction concurrencies in multiple cities afterwards:

New London, CT
Old Lyme, CT
New York City
Jacksonville
Miami (as of a year or two ago)

I-75 & US-23 run concurrent for several miles in Michigan (Flint area).  In Toledo, OH, they have a wrong-way concurrency for about a mile.

No wrong way concurrency, but an oddity with Ontario's overlaps of Highways 11 and 17 is that in North Bay 11 is N-S while 17 is E-W, while the overlap in NW Ontario has them both as E-W.

Does anyone have an example where both are 90-degree overlaps, but (for example) north/east in one overlap and south/east in another overlap?

You forgot Westwood.

The Chattanooga example would qualify with US 41 and US 64. The route enters from the southwest as US 41 south/US 64 east, then the second overlap is US 41 north/US 64 east.

That's not what the OP is looking for. There are lots of triple concurrencies.

I'm still looking for that elusive four-way concurrency that was posted on MTR years ago.

US 60 and VA 5. Wrong-way in Williamsburg, same direction in Richmond (although VA 5 should be removed from the one in Richmond).

[GenExpwy]

Would two separate wrong-way overlaps be even better? New York routes 28 and 30 have wrong-way overlaps in Margaretville, on the edge of the Catskills, and between Indian Lake and Blue Mountain Lake in the middle of the Adirondacks.

I'm still looking for that elusive four-way concurrency that was posted on MTR years ago.

Probably not what you're looking for, but still worth bonus points: a road east out of Knoxville, TN, has US 11E North and US 25W South (also US 70 East).

Do not forget US 11 and US 41 along with those two.

See reply #1 in this thread. I mentioned 11 and 41; in this example, 64 and 41 fit the description.

Also 25E north and 11W south (and vice versa) near Bean Station, north of Morristown. Driven that particular one many, many times.

US 64 and US 70 have 2 same concurrencies (Memphis TN, Lexington NC) and a wrong-way concurrency (Morganton NC)...
