Quote from: JayhawkCO on October 13, 2026, 10:38:56 AMIs there any place in the US that has metering interstate to interstate?

There's some around Minneapolis:

EB I-694 to NB I-35W
SB I-35W to WB I-694
EB I-94 to WB I-394
EB I-494 to SB I-35W (may be former example?)
WB I-94 to EB I-694

You'll hit a ramp meter if you take the ramps from I-405 North to I-5 South or I-90 West to I-5 north in the Seattle area.

There's also ramp meters of you get on the very beginning of I-90 and immediately exit to I-5 north or south, but that feels like a bit of a technicality...

I-370 onto I-270 in Gaithersburg - only MD example and just started within the past year as part of a larger metering program along the entire I-270 corridor.

"Of course!"

Darn.  I just saw a similar photo of a section of the original US-50 alignment in Blue Mesa Reservoir near Gunnison being exposed due to the low water levels. 

Can't find it now, but you could easily see the old pavement and lane markings.

I was just at Blue Mesa last weekend, and took a bunch of photos; here is the Flickr set.  Some of the exposed segments still have not only the lane striping, but also the highway delineators.
