NoVA should and shouldn't build and not build Interstates and non-Interstates yes no yes no.

No they shouldn't. But if they do go ahead and build, they can number them whatever they damn well want. It's obvious AASHTO will approve almost anything (Pennsylvania excepted).

Dammit - I had the perfect question based on current discussions bleeding through into the favorite forum questions thread.  But to answer your question:

VA 28 will become I-366.  The speed limit will be 85.
Will it go to Manassas?

If there's no VA, how would it build more Interstates?

We should number them 56.

It's pointless, the area is cursed by name! "No va" mean's "doesn't go"!

You must be pretty desperate for more Interstates if you expect a stellar explosion to build them for you.

But in the off chance one does and we somehow survive it, number them Fred.

No, they should go in the opposite direction by demolishing I-495 and replacing it with a bikeway.

No Virginia should not build more interstates.  They should be numbered 1.

Michigan county highway D-32.

Each track on its new album will require a resurfacing project, of course, but that's the kind of thing that drives our economy forward, so it's worth it.  All sales will go to fund area construction projects.

County Road 149 near Monticello, Florida.

Why?

Its name is Boston Highway. But this house along that road prompts the mental image of Geddy Lee taking over lead vocals in place of the late Brad Delp. The mental image of Geddy Lee singing "More Than a Feeling" or "Long Time" is somewhat frightening.

West Virginia Route 68 because ⠀  ⠀⠀⠀  ⠀⠀.

I couldn't think of anything to put here because WV 68 wouldn't be the best band or recording artist (thread title, I know). I also love the italicized question. We should do that more often.

Why the lack of words, exactly?

The Kings Highway, Australia, which is not at all a dirty back road.

US Route 6. It wanders aimlessly from nowhere to nowhere. It would be a folk singer.
I think this is needed.
