Then there is Old Québec Route 9C in Châteauguay (Chemin Saint-Bernard) which used to be an important bypass (or was supposed to be one...) of the city. Parts of been have been twinned, and interchanges have been built.

Actually, west of the shown area, you can see that twinning work had been done; in fact another bridge was even twinned, but the north carriageway is not open to traffic and has probably never been. I think it might be a bike trail or something now.

Was this ever planned as part of Autoroute 30?

I don't think so. Too narrow, and the exit ramps are way too tight (15 km/h advisory). I think it was just planned as a short expressway bypass.

Some locals do believe it was part of the A-30 project, but I'm seriously not convinced.

Who knows if it was to be A-30 but it was certainly planned for more.

U.S. 90 Alternate at State Road 291 north of Pensacola.



There is also State Road 295 near Warrington with interchanges at State Road 727 and U.S. 90, but I consider that a mini-freeway because there is limited access for a 1.1 mile stretch.

Sand Lake and Kirkman in southwestern Orlando was built for the Martin (Marietta/Lockheed) Company in the 1950s, when Sand Lake was planned as the western approach to the Bee Line Expressway. It hasn't changed since, except for minor changes to the eastbound right-turn ramp.

Interesting, NE3. So that was route 3, not 9C.

A couple I noticed were missed in Metro Detroit area. One at Greenfield and Rotunda, another at Schaefer and Rotunda, a third at Ford Road and Hines Drive and lastly Dix-Toledo/Allen Rd/Pennsylvania Rd. The last one is an interchange between all 3 and an intersection with Allen and Pennsylvania.

Mapman, how many of those actually exist?  I can't easily check them on my phone, but at least the first one doesn't exist according to Google Maps.  This isn't Fictional Highways.
Wait, it's all Ohio? Always has been.

NY 17 at that point is already a four-lane divided arterial much like it is in NJ. I wouldn't go that far.

The intersection of Franklin Rd. (US 31) with Thomspon Lane/Woodmont Blvd. (TN SSR 155) - the interesting thing about this interchange is that very near it's replacement, the I-65/I-440 4 level stack interchange.

Looking at my lengthening itinerary for Route 66, how about US 67 in St. Louis? Several interchanges on it.

Looks like they were going for an expressway concept, but failed to properly control property access (or didn't want to disturb existing direct-access businesses).  Perhaps this is the result of trying to convert a long-established conventional road into an expressway, a process US 23 north of Columbus may be going through now and over the coming decades.
