Erroneous road signs

[vtk]

A few nights ago I noticed, at the junction of US 62 / OH 3 and OH 238 near Bloomingburg, all the signs I could see as I passed through on 62 SB referred to OH 38, instead of 238.  IMO it would be logical if ODOT rerouted 38 to take over 238, downgrading existing 38 south of Bloomingburg to the county, but the District 6 website doesn't indicate they've done that.  Subsequently I crossed OH 38 just southwest of Bloomingburg and there was an OH 38 marker there.  Either the signs in one of those locations is wrong, or OH 38 now exists in a highly improbable short or three-legged route.

I'm guessing the city of Irvine is responsible for this sign on southbound Sand Canyon, the one at the onramp shows the Interstate correctly.  It has been there for a few months now.

Well at least it is a state-named shield!

The "u" in Muñoz is backwards

Does New Mexico normally use full-width exit tabs in the same manner as Washington State (not like Illinois since they right-align theirs)?

I don't think so, I looked at other signs and they were only on the right and on tabs.

I would guess the full-width exit tab is because the Muños sign is so narrow.

I know it's being used as a street name; but seeing Route 66 as destination/street just seems weird.

Colorado does the same thing (the "uni-tab") when a sign is narrow in width, so like in NM, it's not on all their signs.

Update:  It appears OH 38 has indeed been rerouted as described previously.  Old 38, except at intersections with other state routes, still displays now-erroneous OH 38 markers.  I guess this is a case of ODOT saying "not my job" , as the road presumably is now the responsibility of Fayette County.

Yeah I think it's weird too, you don't really see that often.

The far left sign and the pull-thru Baltimore sign are new within the past few weeks. The "EXIT ONLY" banner on the leftmost sign is erroneous because the lane continues on through, splits off to the left to go around a flyover ramp, and rejoins the highway on the far left side.

This is a location where an APL sign might seemingly be useful, but it would have to be enormous to span the full width of the highway (I think there are seven lanes here) and the number of ramps might make it confusing for some people (two exits on each side of the highway). The right-most arrow on the "Washington" sign and the left-most arrow on the "Richmond" sign point to the same lane, for example, and that lane then becomes exit-only at the ramp to I-395 further down the road. Meanwhile, the lane under the left-most arrow on the "Washington" sign is an option lane that allows you to continue on towards Baltimore.

VA 3 gets an upgrade at the Chancellorsville Battlefield Park. This looked fairly new:

Found a couple from Missouri while looking through a page of photos from a trip a few years ago.





And one from Kentucky from the same day.

Should be California 210.

Hammond, LA. Should have a "BUSINESS" banner. The actual US 51 is some distance to the west. Much of the 51 BUS route is signed as just "US 51." And that can cause navigational issues if you direct someone to "Business 51 instead of regular 51" to get to I-12. The business route interchanges with I-12; the actual route doesn't.

[hbelkins]

Found three goodies from Virginia while looking at a page of pictures from a road trip several years ago. I know the first one is gone. It's from Grundy.





Yes, there is a US 211, but it ends at I-81 in New Market, to the east of this location. That should be a VA 211 marker.

Two finds while converting Massachusetts pages for the main site:

U.S. 1 signed as Massachusetts 1 along MA 114 west.

U.S. 202 signed as Massachusetts 202 on Resnic Boulevard (north of the I-391 end) in Holyoke.

[PHLBOS]

U.S. 1 signed as Massachusetts 1 along MA 114 west.

That's probably the first time I've seen a stand-alone/trailblazer MA 1 shield.  Most of the erroneous MA 1 shields I've seen were on LGS' once posted along the stetch between Topsfield & Salisbury.

This is most definitely wrong:

Or maybe it's saying there's a 40 ton weight limit for I-535 which is the Blatnik Bridge..?

Probably.  Also, insert tasteless Green Bay insult here.

Found in Temple, Texas today by Jeff Royston.

I'd forgive them if Loop 363 were actually a loop through downtown. But it's a bypass loop.
