Darragh, Penn.

Geez, why stick with locations that are on I-70, huh?

Darragh, Penn.

Fair point. I was browsing locations along the Penn. Turnpike and didn't realize that I-70 had already branched off of I-76. It's only now that I realized my error. I think it'll be fine here anyway (note our previous conversation on this topic).

[kphoger]

The control city should be Anton, because then CDOT would be admitting the existence of US-36 there.

Agreed.

Focusing more on the airplane logo than the I-70 shield, install a VMS sign that lists the destinations for the next 3 flights out of Denver's airport, updating in real time.

Not according to Google, and I'm inclined to believe that Google's correct based on street view.

ODOT should just use "Boring Oregon City" for all of its control city signs, that one included.
