I-238 is hilarious, but not the only ridiculous thing about interstates in the east SF bay. I-238 actually curves right (south-east) and continues into State HWY 238, which runs for about a mile alongside State HWY 185, until it curves into it and ABSORBS State HWY 185, while the path (keyword being State HWY) 238 looks like it would take, and what you would reasonably assume would be 185 (since 238 took over the path of Mission Blvd), is... somehow, State HWY 92 and turns into a bridge....

As someone from Minneapolis who was annoyed simply that 35W was considered the "exit" off I-35 from the South whereas 35E was the continuation, 35W (Minneapolis) and 35E (Saint Paul) were definitely named to not be bypasses. The rivalry is real!
@MeMySkirtandI 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
As a twin cities resident, I can say with authority that: Yes the E & W designations are there to keep the peace between the fragile egos of the state's largest city, Minneapolis, and the state capital, St. Paul. However, since the exit numbers on 35E remain consistent with the rest of I35s numbers, while 35Ws exits start at 1 and end around 20, its clear that 35W is the bypass.

Also, I-238 was numbered as such because, at the time, I-80 in California also had a βcomplete setβ of auxiliary Interstates and they didnβt want to cause confusion by duplicating numbers within the state, so it was just numbered after the original highway, CA-238.

We were doing it for vacation like the truckers did. Dad even had a CB in the old Dodge Sportsman to listen in for βintelβ, naturally. So thank you for this. It made me laugh & cry a bit.

I-238 is on the road bed of a California highway. When this important connecting highway was incorporated into the Interstate system it kept the same number. The original CA-238 was longer. Only the part between I-580 and I-880 was converted into an Interstate. The rest remains as CA-238. Yes every state has its own system of highways with it'd own system of numbering.

The curvy, bumpy nature of a highway will more than likely damage the landing gear of any plane trying to use it for combat operations.

I-99 bisected his district at the time and was his pet project. He said that he wanted to give it a double-digit number to make it sound more important, and he grew up in Pittsburgh where there was a trolly (or something like that) with the number 99. He said the US DoT pushed back and wanted to use the 3 digit system you described (since it was intrastate), but he ended the story by saying something like, "Well, you see who won that one."

Theyβre essentially much smaller versions of your interstates. Anyway, once I was going back to my (temporary student) house after a star-gazing weekend organised by my universityβs astronomy club, and during the trip I noticed weβd just entered National 2, the largest of the National Roads (spanning around 750km, and uniting the northern and southernmost cities in my country).

It would have crossed Manhattan on the unbuilt Mid-Manhattan Expressway, and continue through the Lincoln Tunnel, reaching I-95 in New Jersey. Either way, its construction quality (minus the potholes) certainly is enough to make the general public think of it as an "interstate", and thus it makes sense for it to be one.

Interesting fact about I-70 (in Maryland): Its eastern end stops exactly at the Baltimore city limits after there was considerable push back against highways being built in the city, so it does not meet up with I-95. It in fact stops at a parking lot on Maryland Route 122. Near this, there is an oddly placed sign that lists the distance to Columbus, OH (420 miles), St. Louis, MO (845 miles), Denver, CO (1700 miles) and lastly, the western terminus of I-70, Cove Fort, UT (2200 miles). It was placed there in 2004 to test a new font for highway signage (the font is called Clearview) and the engineers didn't want to put actual important information on it, so that's why it lists unrelated cities. Cove Fort isn't even a town, it's an actual fort built in 1867 by the Mormons as a resting stop of travelers and is now a historic site.

Having been a geography and map nerd since I was old enough to read I just sort of assumed everyone knew the interstate numbering pattern, but I have learned that is not the case. There are also quite a few exceptions all over the country. There are 2 in my area. I-71 runs mostly N/S with a bit of an E/W diagonal, but the rule it breaks is that it is mostly East of I-75. The other is I-670 in Central Ohio; it is a spur, as it only connects to I-70 at the west terminus, so it should start with an odd number. It is strange that it doesn't because I don't think there are any odd numbered 3 digit routes in Ohio. Lots of 2s, 4s and 6s, so it probably would have been less confusing to start it with an odd number. I-675 in SW Ohio is another odd one because it is a diagonal that connects to both I-75 (S terminus) and I-70 (N terminus).

Fun fact: Part of the planning for these interstates was done by General Pershing in the 1920s. The Bureau of Public Roads asked the Army which routes would be best needed for public defense purposes. Itβs why youβll find that they connect military bases pretty easily.

@Nick V They are, but they throw in a little extra so we can all use them in the mean time. Another interesting thing about our highways you won't easily find published? Ever notice how sometimes there's a stretch of highway that's just really long, straight, and well maintained? I bet it happens to be near a military air field. Many stretches of highway are strategic defense assets to be used as runways if our primary airfield runways get bombed.
@kevinreilly51 2 ΡΠΎΠΊΠΈ ΡΠΎΠΌΡ
@Nick V as someone else said, if mainland invasion were to necessitate martial law, the interstate highway system would, as needed, be closed to civilian traffic (or at least most civilian uses) and some alternative road signs put up for DOD purposes.

Where? In southern Utah I-70 turns (or turned) back into a US highway for a while.

From the looks of them they had been in progress for decades.
