QuoteApril 4, 2019: "Broadway"s.

If I'm going to have a photo of a Broadway, it's going to be on a freeway sign.  There's little point in photographing a street ending in Y for the street sign challenge.

This is in St. Louis along I-55.

Just found another, even better, along US 411 near Maryville, TN

I-465 closure from this past fall.

I-95 in Delaware was closed for reconstruction.  May 28, 2000.



And an I-77 closure in the Cleveland area.  October 8, 2006.

QuoteApril 8, 2019:  Sign panels that are the wrong color. 
(If unclear, state your reasoning for why you believe a sign is the wrong color).

Here's a no-right-turn panel that ended up yellow somehow.  (The application is also wrong, but that's not part of the challenge.)  Springfield, IL, near Hazel Dell Road.

Two from I-70 in Colorado.

Exit for Mt. Evans, in Idaho Springs.


Exit for Loveland Pass shortly before the Eisenhower Tunnel.

I think this is what we're going for...

Another one from I-70 in Colorado, this time for Rabbit Valley:



Exit 5 on I-80 in Wyoming, with "Wasatch National Forest" as the control point...I can't say I've seen that anywhere else.

That seems like more of a landform than a landmark.

Yeah, that's what I'm going for. Physical features rather than cities. Landform, landmark, whatever you want to call it.
