If highways didn’t post miles by state…

[OCGuy81]

If an interstate just counted overall miles, and didn't reset after crossing state lines, which exit number would be the one closest to you?

I'm not on the interstate system, but if US 97 used miles based on her entire length, Bend would be approximately Exit 224, give or take.

[JayhawkCO]

Still exit 4, as my closest interstate is a 3di (I-225).  Assuming you might also mean for 2dis only, the exit from I-25 to I-225 would be exit 662.

[NWI_Irish96]

Depending on whether I-80 or I-94 took priority, it would be either exit 2133 or exit 1265.

[1995hoo]

Assuming exit numbering would still run from south to north, Exit 1047 on I-95.

[SkyPesos]

Exit 19 on I-71, which would become exit 117.

To make this more interesting, my exit numbers in a few more categories:
- Closest exit on I-75: Exit 1196 (I-275, current exit 17)
- Closest exit to my former home in the St Louis area: I-70 exit 1335 (MO 94, current exit 228)
- Closest exit to my college: I-65 exit 797 (IN 26, current exit 172)

EDIT: Since I like bigger numbers, additional thing to add in: If highways don't reset mile markers/exit numbers at state lines AND are posted in km instead of miles, what would your closest exit number be?

For my 4 categories above (in same order), it would be:
- I-71 exit 188
- I-75 exit 1925
- I-70 exit 2149
- I-65 exit 1282

Exit #4 on I-68

[pianocello]

Exit 384 on I-75.

This game is going to be way more fun for people outside peninsular Florida.

[mukade]

Somewhere around exit 1300 on I-69: It depends on where it would get routed or if it even gets built.

[OCGuy81]

Nearest interstate for me, I-5 with its junction at OR-22 in Salem would be exit 1049

[OCGuy81]

Just for fun, I did some major junctions of I-5 in Oregon and Washington.

US-199: Exit 852

I-105: Exit 991

I-205: Exit 1085

I-405: Exit 1097

US-12: Exit 1173

I-705: Exit 1237

I-405: Exit 1258

I-90: Exit 1269

US-2: Exit 1279

Canadian Border would me MP 1381

[jp the roadgeek]

I'd be between Exits 169 and 173 on I-84 (Exits 938 and 942 if we include Western I-84 mileage)

The I-95/I-91 junction would be Exit 1378
The I-84/I-91 junction would be Exit 189 (958)

[SkyPesos]

I-90: Exit 1269

US-2: Exit 1279

I-90 is currently exit 164, and US 2 is exit 194, so there's something missing in your exit numbers here.

Hmmm, thanks for that. Error in my calc I guess.

[SkyPesos]

Exit numbers for some junctions in Ohio:


- I-70 (exit 1703) and I-75 (exit 1241) near Dayton
- I-70 (exit 1770), I-71 (exit 205) in Columbus (east split)
- I-70 (exit 1849) and I-77 (exit 494) in Cambridge
- I-74 (exit 416) and I-75 (exit 1183) in Cincinnati
- I-76 (exit 188) and I-71 (exit 307) near Lodi
- I-76 (exit 211) and I-77 (exit 575) in Akron (east split)
- I-76 (exit 247) and I-80 (exit 2502) near Youngstown
- I-80/90 (exit 2347 with I-80 mileage or 2351 with I-90 mileage) and I-75 (1375) in Toledo
- I-90 (exit 2456) and I-71 (exit 345) in Cleveland
- I-90 (exit 2458) and I-77 (exit 613) in Cleveland

[KCRoadFan]

Mine would be Exit 976A on I-35.

[ran4sh]

The interchanges actually near me would remain the same because they're either 3di or state routes, so instead I'll look at 2di interchanges in Atlanta:

I-20 at I-75/85: I-20 exit 1252, I-75 exit 717 (I-85 would have exit 161 if its numbers were used)
I-75 at I-85 northern split: I-75 exit 721, I-85 exit 165

[zachary_amaryllis]

Still exit 4, as my closest interstate is a 3di (I-225).  Assuming you might also mean for 2dis only, the exit from I-25 to I-225 would be exit 662.

which would put me around what.. 727? (nearest to exit 269)

[GaryV]

For me, it would be somewhere around Exit 1454 on I-75.

[CNGL-Leudimin]

Going the reverse, since highways in Spain count overall mileage and don't reset upon crossing a regional border, I would be near exits 294 and 297 on A-23.

Fun fact: There is no need to do this at all in California.

[JayhawkCO]

462 miles in NM, so MM 731.

[rlb2024]

Nearest for me would not change (I-12 exit 65).  But the closest I-10 interchange, which is about 20 miles away (10-12-59 split) would be I-10 exit 1947.

I guess that would make me at exit 727 (Harmony Road), which is normally exit 265.

[JCinSummerfield]

I'm currently at exit 13 of US-23 in Michigan.  New exit number would be 1083.

[7/8]

In a hypothetical scenario where I-94 is extended along the 402, then the 401 east of London, ON, my exit (Highway 8) would be either 1708 (mileage-based) or 2748 (km-based).

i missed it by [fingers real close] that much.
i'm actually sitting a block away from harmony at this moment. (not at home)
