Slightly off-topic, but are there any interstate "triangles", where three interstates connect with no intermediate exits on any of the three sides?
Closest I can find is I-65/I-465/I-865 in Indiana. 2/3 of the sides have no exits, but I-465 does have 2 exits.

Colorado almost has one. Southbound on I-25 has Exit 217B (I-270) followed by Exit 216 (I-76 Westbound), but with Exit 217A sandwiched in between for US36 Westbound.

The Denver one comes even closer, doesn't it?

Denver might qualify, depending on if CO 224 counts as a separate exit or not.

Right in that area, though, you have I-76 hitting I-25 and I-270 as well as I-270 hitting I-76 and I-25.

Truth. Was only thinking about one side of the triangle.

In theory, US36 is an extension of I-270 (which is also US36), so it's basically the next exit, just with the opposite direction of the highway ruining it.

You get close at I-95/295/695 in New York, looks like there's 1 exit on 695, 1 exit on 295, and nothing on 95

Cheyenne, doesn't it go from I-25 to I-180? I can't recall if there's another exit between those, or just more cows.
clinched:
I-64, I-80, I-76 (west), *64s in hampton roads, 225,270,180 (co, wy)

In Lansing, MI: I-96 has consecutive exits for I-496 and I-69
The Saginaw exit (M-43) is in between.

Other side. Exits 95 and 97.

Also, the Indiana Toll Road goes from I-65 to I-80/94
Davenport, IA -> Valparaiso, IN -> Ames, IA -> Orlando, FL -> Gainesville, FL -> Evansville, IN

Just more cows. And wind. No exits.

But is WY I-180 really an Interstate???  :confused:

In Houston, Interstate 69 south kind of does this. Exit 132 is for IH-10 and while there is an exit for Jackson Street to downtown, if I remember correctly, the ramp for that is actually part of the same general interchange with the ramps for IH-10. The next exit after that is for IH 45.

I-10 Westbound in Louisiana has I-310 then a ten mile gap before the next exit to I-55.

Another near triangle: I-495, I-270, I-270 Spur in the DC area with one exit on 2 of the sides.

What about the triangle of I-88/I-290/I-294 in Chicagoland?

There is the York Rd Exit from the I-88E->I-294S ramp, the entrance from York/Harger Rds to I-88W and the Cermak and Roosevelt exits on 294

ET21

A couple IL ones,

I-294 SB has I-90 E/W followed by I-190 West
I-294 SB also has I-290 West first, followed by I-290 East and I-88 West. The order may change due to the ongoing roadwork

And as mentioned above, I-88 EB has I-294/York Rd first followed by I-294 North/I-290 West with the mainline heading into I-290 East
The local weatherman, trust me I can be 99.9% right!
