New England Exit Renumbering Central

Exit Renumbering Projects in New England (Updated 1/23/24)

Massachusetts announced on November 18, 2019 that it would start converting its exits to a milepost-based system in the late summer of 2020, later moved to the fall.  A project that was to have started in 2016 but was postponed. Work started on October 18, 2020 and was finished when the last two routes to be renumbered, I-395 and I-290, were completed on August 20, 2021. Meanwhile, progress in other New England states has varied. Rhode Island completed the renumbering of all its highways, with the completion of I-95, in early November 2022. Connecticut has a plan to slowly convert by the early 2030s renumbering exits only during sign replacement projects. In northern New England, Maine converted way back in 2004. Vermont has gone partially milepost based, with the establishment of 'Milepoint' signs on its exits, a full conversion probably won't happen until the 2030s. New Hampshire will probably not see any change in exit numbers as long as its current governor holds office. This site aims to summarize information, by state, of progress made, or planned in exit renumbering:

Go to CT 9 Photos (5/21/23)

In Connecticut the move to milepost based exits will be gradual, possible taking more than a decade. Exit numbers will be changed only after new exit signs are up along an entire stretch of roadway (with exceptions, see below). So far, projects related to I-395, I-691, CT 2A, 9, 66 and 72 have have been completed, I-691 being the last with the exit numbers changed in April 2023 prior to signs being updated. More typical have been projects advertised earlier, such as for CT 9. The first sign replacement project was advertised on August 7, 2019 to update signs north of Middletown, but since signs along the rest of CT 9 still had yet to be replaced, that route's exit numbers did not change during that project. Number changes would have to wait for the second CT 9 contract from Middletown to Old Saybrook which was advertised on August 12, 2020 (see below). Work on upgrading signage and exit renumbering started on CT 9 (as well as CT 72) late in 2020 but the project was not completed until early 2023. Here's the latest news article about the state's plans published on May 21, 2023. 

Latest Exit Renumbering News (Revised 1/18/24)

On January 12, 2024 CTDOT issued a press release about the upcoming Fall 2024 sign replacement project on the Wilbur Cross Parkway, CT 15. It indicated exit renumbering would be a part of this project on that highway and also along the Merritt Parkway to the New York state line. The release included a list of proposed new milepost exit numbers in the north and southbound directions. Some of the most interesting information from the list is that the last exit southbound, whose two ramps are split between CT and NY and have had different numbers, will now have a NY based number, 19B. The numbers for the former US 7/Main Avenue exits in Norwalk that are currently 40 A/B in both directions are proposed to be 17B and C heading north but 17A and B going south. The CT 25 exit is proposed to be 32 heading north but 32A southbound. The CT 8 exit will be 34. The last Merritt exit, for the To I-95/Milford Parkway will be 37. On the Wilbur Cross, the CT 10 exit is proposed to be 50, US 5 Exit 61 and I-91 64A headed north but Exits 64B/65 headed south. The exits that currently have numbers north of the Berlin Turnpike were not on the list. Check out the full list in the Press Release. The project is to be advertised in May, work is scheduled to start in the fall, though exit number change probably won't appear until 2025, see project list from the CT website below.

In June 2022, CTDOT launched a webpage on its traffic engineering site for Exit Renumbering. The site contains a map showing the new exit numbers for projects underway, or soon to be underway at that time: CT 8, CT 9, CT 17, CT 72 and CT 571. The page also has a link to a FAQ document which lists a new completion year schedule for exit renumbering, this one including CT 15. The site was updated in March 2023 to include new exit numbers for CT 25:

- CT-9: 2022 (State Projects 0007-0189/0171-0425 & 0172-0473) [Renumbering complete as of 8/31/23]

- I-691: 2023 (Currently in Construction – State Project 0079-0244) CTDOT announced that exit renumbering would begin on April 24, 2023 (weather permitting), work actually started earlier and was completed on April 24. The list of new exit numbers is available above. Unlike the other contracts, signs still needed to be replaced. Most of the signs had been placed by late October. See photos above and Jay Hogan's Flickr page for latest sign images. Renumbering of exit numbers for CT 66 portion east of I-91 also complete.

- CT-2: 2024 (Currently in Construction – State Project 0172-0490) [Exit signage being installed]

- CT-8: 2025 (Advertised 7/20/22, Construction Started 11/22/22)[Exit renumbering will not start until last sign replacement contract is completed]

- CT-15, I-291: 2025 (I-291 Contract advertised 12/20/23. The new numbers are to be CT 218 Exit 1B, I-91 Exits 1 A/C, CT 159-Exit 1D, US 5-Exit 2, Tolland Parkway-Exit 5C, I-84 Exits 5 A/B. [See Sign plans below] CT 15 contract restored to June 2023 advertisement list, now to be advertised on May 8, 2024.

- CT 25: 2025 Not mentioned in the FAQ, new numbers appeared on the CTDOT Exit Renumbering site at the same time ones for I-691 were shown. The exit descriptions state the exit renumbering will be completed by 2025, perhaps as part of the CT 8 exit renumbering, although CT 25 signs were included in the plans shown above.

- I-384: 2026 (Contract to be advertised 8/23/23) CTDOT announced on April 13, 2023 that sign replacement on I-384 and US 6 would soon begin with design plans for the project are expected to be completed in the summer of 2023 with construction commencing in 2024. US 6 would receive milepost exit numbers (89 for the CT 32 exit and 91 for the CT 195 exit) as part of the contract. The I-384 proposed exits are: 1 Spencer St (1A for I-84, 1B for Spenser Street/ Silver Lane WB), 3 Keeny Street, 4 CT 83, 5 Highland Street and 7 CT 85 (EB).

- I-91: 2027

- I-84: 2028

- I-95: 2029

The FAQ site also goes into details on how the new numbers will be determined:

Exit numbers will be determined based on the mileage contained in the CTDOT Linear Referencing System. Mileage typically runs from south to north and west to east.
- No Exit 0
- Mileage 0.00 – 1.49 = Exit 1
- Mileage 1.50 – 2.99 = Exit 2
- Mileage 3.00 – 3.99 and beyond.
+ Round down to the nearest whole mile
- In some cases, the CTDOT may round up or down to the next nearest whole mile to reduce
suffix letters or utilize the existing exit number.
- Splits on off-ramps will not be designated as separate numbers/suffix letters.

The contract to replace the remaining signs on CT 9 was advertised on August 12, 2020. This contract includes exit renumbering along the entire length of CT 9 (along with new signs on parts of CT 17 and a new number for the CT 17 exit at CT 9, and CT 82). The contract was let in November with work starting on December 7, 2020, the majority of the work stated to take place in 2021, however work was slow. While new signs started to go up as of May 2021 exit signs with new numbers did not show up until December. On December 7, 2020 a news article stated the sign replacement work with exit renumbering was beginning that day on CT 9, along with CT 17 and CT 82. The new exit number lists in the article had some changes from the numbers in the original plans seen below. In the new list both I-95 and I-84 received exit numbers. The CT 9 South signs for the I-95 exits will be numbered 1A and 1B with the CT 154 South exit now to be renumbered 1C. The I-84 exits now numbered 31 and 32 will be renumbered 40A and 40B. The exit number for CT 175/Ella Grasso Blvd. was changed from 37 to 38. Work on the contract was supposed to be completed by 2022, however work stalled for several months on the contract replacing signs on southern end of the roadway, that needed to be completed before the start of exit renumbering. As of early April only a few ground mounted signs with old and new exit numbers had appeared between Middletown and I-84, most of the signs were up by August, however the new exit numbers remained covered up through the end of the year.1

CTDOT finally announced on January 18, 2023 that the renumbering of the exits would start the night of January 22. Two work crews would change exit numbers along the route. This required putting new numbers on some old signs that have not been replaced, but south of Middletown this mainly involved removing the tape covering up the new numbers on the signs installed in 2022 (in photos below). Most of the signage had been changed by April. Here are photos taken of the new signs and exit numbers on CT 9 South between CT 72 and I-95 taken on May 7, 2023:

The initial exit number plan for CT 9 had the I-95/US 1 exits with no number and the CT 154 exit to be Exit 1:

ConnDOT sign plan for new 1-mile advance sign for CT 154 on CT 9 South in Old Saybrook

Here are some of the plans for CT 9 exits I did not get photos of. For the first contract only the exit number tabs will be replaced with the new numbers on new signs already installed:

ConnDOT plan for new exit number tab for CT 99 exit sign on CT 9 in Rocky Hill  ConnDOT plan images of new exit number tabs for existing signs for CT 71 and CT 372 exits

ConnDOT sign plan for new exit tabs for CT 72 and New Britain exits

ConnDOT plan for 1-mile advance sign for To CT 175 exit on CT 9 in Newington

ConnDOT sign plan for new exit number tab for existing 3/4 mile advance sign for CT 71 exit on CT 9 in Corbin's Corner

According to the original plans, the I-84 exits would also not have received an exit number.

Exit numbers on signs themselves have not started but several ground mounted signs with old and new numbers have appeared at the northern end of CT 9. Note the current number is the same but the future I-91 ramps will have two different numbers.

Image of recently placed New and Old Exit number ground mounted signs put up for I-91 exit on CT 9 North in Middletown, April 2022

The same numbers, with the addition of an Old Exit 20S sign for I-91 South, in front of new overhead signs, notice the squeezing of the sequential number onto the sign for I-91 North.  

Image of recently placed gore sign with New and Old Exit number sign below for I-91 South exit on CT 9 North in Middletown, April 2022

The gore sign for the I-91 exit already has the new number up, even though it doesn't appear on any of the overhead signs.

Exits on I-691 was quickly renumbered the weekend of April 21-23, 2023. Unlike other projects exit numbers were changed prior to most of the signage being replaced. New signs started showing up during the summer.

Photos taken of the new exit signs were replaced driving westbound on October 20:

UPCOMING EXIT RENUMBERING PROJECTS   

In February 2024 CTDOT advertised the upcoming sign replacement project for I-291 north of Hartford. This will involve renumbering the exits as well.

Here are some of the sign plans for I-291, showing new exit numbers, going from west to east along the 5 mile route:

On September 20, 2023 CTDOT posted sign plans for the upcoming sign replacement project for I-384 and US 6 in Willimantic. This will also involve renumbering the exits. 

Here are some of the sign plans for I-384, showing new exit numbers, except for the Exit 1 headed east along the 8 mile interstate route:

This sign actually precedes the start of I-384 West.

Here are plans for the new signs on the US 6 Willimantic Bypass that will receive new milepost based exit numbers:

The CTDOT Exit Renumbering page, see below, indicates the exit renumbering of I-384 will not be complete until 2026. The next exit renumbering project to be advertised will be for CT 15 between Milford and Meriden in the spring of 2024.

CURRENT EXIT RENUMBERING PROJECTS

On August 21, 2020 CTDOT issued a press release regarding its next round of sign replacements and exit renumbering that would start in 2022 involving CT 2, CT 3, CT 11 and CT 17. The new exit number lists provided in the press release indicated that CT 11 would be renumbered based on completion of that highway to I-95, a project that has been proposed and fought for years, with no sign of eventual construction. In August 2021 ConnDOT posted an advertisement for a contract let on September 8 and released files which contained sign plans showing the new numbers, sign plans posted for each route below any photos. Work began on the project in 2021 with new signs seen on all the routes by 2023. The new signs will have their future exit numbers covered up until all signs are put up for that route.

According to a poster to the AARoads Forum on May 12, 2023, new signs with blacked out future exit numbers have appeared along CT 11, along with new mile markers. New signs were spotted at the beginning of the route as seen from CT 2 East on October 22. A Forum poster in September indicated a couple of the gore signs had their new numbers shown.

CT 8 shield from Wikimedia

UPDATE 11/18/22 CTDOT in 2021 issued a press released indicating work on the remaining sign replacements along CT 8 and exit renumbering will occur at the end of 2022. The release also had a list of tentative exit numbers, which included Exit 3 NB for the CT 25 split in New Haven, Exit 6 for the Merritt Parkway SB and 30A and B for the I-84 Mixmaster interchange. The sign plans were made available when the contract was advertised on July 20, 2022 with the project to start on November 2022. Work is to take 2 years with the exit renumbering, presumably taking place after the remaining sign updates. The plans did not have, as was expected, additional exit renumbering plans for CT 25 (see below). Here's a sampling of some of the plans, heading north from I-95, which, unlike at present, will have exit numbers:

CTDOT plan images for exit numbers for I-95 and South End exits on CT 8 South in Bridgeport, July 2022    CTDOT sign plan image of new signage and exit number for CT 25 exit on CT 8 north in Bridgeport, July 2022

The plan for the northbound CT 25 exit also includes an exit number, 3, currently there is none. This led to speculation that CT 25 was to be truncated to this exit instead of its currently running concurrently with CT 8 to I-95. This turned out not to be true based on the publishing in April 2023 of the future exit numbers for CT 25 (see below). Heading further north to Waterbury...

Entering Waterbury and the I-84 "Mixmaster" interchange under construction, here's what CTDOT plans heading north:

CTDOT sign plan images for I-84 exit on CT 8 North in Waterbury, July 2022

The I-84 ramps are split up between the Downtown Waterbury exit. Here's the plan for CT 8 South:

CTDOT sign plan images for I-84 exit on CT 8 South in Waterbury, July 2022 CTDOT sign plan images for I-84 exit guide sign on CT 8 South in Waterbury, July 2022

Apparently CTDOT thinks the interchange numbering will be confusing to some, so they are adding this explanatory sign in both direction, this one headed south.

As mentioned above, the CT 8 sign plans did not include any for CT 25. The state's Exit Renumbering Project website though does include new exit numbers for the route with the added information that work is to be completed in 2025, the same year the work on CT 8 is to finish. It therefore appears that exit renumbering will be done in coordination with the CT 8 work. Here's some sign plans I created using SignMaker software, starting with the exit off of CT 8:

The new exit numbers on CT 25 retain the mileage from the concurrency with CT 8 from I-95:

Massachusetts (Updated 11/30/22)

MassDOT let 3 contracts for Exit Renumbering in July and August 2020. The contracts were for Districts 1-3 (610646) along with I-495 and MA 2, therefore most of western and central Mass., Districts 4-6 (610699), the rest of the routes in eastern and southeastern sections, and a separate one for the Massachusetts Turnpike (610700). The winning bids were announced June 23 (second), July 7 (first), and July 21 (third). MassDOT announced on September 10, 2020 that the project would start on the second contract routes in mid-October after a virtual public meeting on September 24. The first highway to be renumbered was MA Route 140 starting on October 18, then I-195 on October 25 and then, after a two-week hiatus, MA Route 25 on November 24, then MA 3 on the morning of December 14, with US 6 on the Cape to start the evening of December 14 (see photos below). Work to renumber exits on I-295 took place on January 4-5, while the next night work started on MA 24. When that work was completed on January 19, contractors moved on to US 3, MA Route 128 was renumbered next starting on February 11, I-95 started the week of February 25 and was planned to take 10 weeks, work was completed early, on April 22. The last route under the contract, I-93, started on May 2. Work was completed on the night of May 20. MassDOT announced a second public meeting to discuss the first and Mass Pike contracts on December 1 where they stated work on the third (Mass Pike) contract would begin on December 13. The work started at Weston and moved westward to the NY border before turning around eastward. Work was completed back to the Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit and for the I-93 exit as of January 9. Work also was completed heading west back to I-95 in Weston. Work remained to renumber the Prudential Center, South Boston and Logan Airport exits eastbound which was completed the week of January 10. Interestingly, when the new 1/2 mile advance sign on I-90 East for the US 20 exit was put up in the spring of 2021, it had the old number 2, this has not been changed as of June 2022 (see photo below). Work on the first contract started last, after the work on the Mass Pike is completed, probably because the same contractor is responsible for both. I-84 was the first route to be renumbered starting on February 28, I-91 was next on March 3. Work on I-91 was completed on March 18, work then moved to MA Route 146 on March 21, followed by I-190 on March 23 and Route 2 on March 25. Work on Route 2 was completed the morning of April 13. I-495 was the next route, starting on May 16, was done in 4 sections in a south to north direction. Work was completed on the first section, from Route 28 to I-95, on the night of May 20 and northbound to I-93 on June 4. MassDOT announced the renumbering was complete on June 12, but a several, mostly gore signs, with old numbers still remained, mostly on I-495 South between Haverhill and Bolton, as of late June. A MassDOT email on June 30 again indicated work on I-495 was complete, though there were still signs with the old numbers reported in July. Work on the final 2 routes, I-395 and I-290, started on August 8, (postponed from August 1) after sign replacement work on I-290 is complete (the signs have been put up with the old numbers). Work was completed on August 20 on both routes. In early September, the MassDOT exit renumbering site stated work on the project had been completed. However, in 2022 there were new development. The dual mileposts put up along I-290 in the Worcester area were apparently too confusing and were removed with the I-290 mile markers simply continuing I-395's mileage (photos hopefully soon). Also it as reported that some new exit numbers along I-290 had been changed again. For a full description of MassDOT's project, go to my Mass. Interstates Exit List website.

New Hampshire (Updated 9/15/23)

A November 20, 2019 report by WMUR indicated the NH Department of Transportation has endorsed revising the state's exit numbers to a mile based system. The project would be part of the state's next 10-year transportation plan which could be considered by the state's Executive council in late November. If endorsed there, the plan would go to the state legislature where it could take up to a year to work its way to approval. A week later, New Hampshire Governor Sununu expressed opposition to the proposal stating "Exit numbers are a point of pride for some of us in NH - and we shouldn't let Washington bureaucrats threaten to take that away!”3 However, a later news report indicated that despite the governor's insistence, the state's Executive Council, which actually has control over the state's highway plan, has included a renumbering project in its new Draft 10-year Highway plan. According to the document, preliminary engineering would have taken place in 2022 and the project started in 2023. However in the spring of 2020, the draft of the Highway Plan came up for review by the governor. He approved all the projects in August 2020, except one, you guessed it, the one for exit renumbering. The rejection was accompanied by the following comment:

"Exit numbers are a point of pride for many of us in New Hampshire, and exits we use say something about us and our communities. Changing exit numbers is unnecessarily burdensome for business owners and citizens, and the State already uses mile markers along the highways for reference by travelers. Accordingly, I have removed this project (Statewide 40915) from my version of the 10-Year Plan."4

In each of the following two years, 2021 and 2022, again NHDOT released its draft new 10 year plans in the fall. Each time there was a contract for exit renumbering.5 And each time the draft plan was returned by the governor's office in early December, with the only project turned down being the one for exit renumbering. In the summer of 2023 Governor Sununu announced he would not run for reelection in 2024. Meanwhile, in September 2023, NHDOT released its draft new 10 year plan for 2025 to 2034. Again there was a contract for exit renumbering (40915) with preliminary engineering to take place in 2027 and the project to start in 2029 at a total cost of $1,309,881.6 It is likely that the exit renumbering project will be removed for the next two years as long as the current governor is in office, but perhaps this will change when a new one takes office in 2025.


Rhode Island (Updated 11/27/22)

Go to I-95 in RI Exit Renumbering Photos

RIDOT announced in the Fall of 2017 that the state planned to change all it's highway exit numbers to a mile-based system by 2020. Financial issues have now caused the project to be delayed by at least one year. At the end of 2021 the fourth contract remains to be started for the one remaining route yet to have its exits renumbered, I-95. Interstate 95 was to have its exits renumbered starting in December 2020, by the lowest bidder for the renumbering contract, Liddell Bros., Inc. announced on June 19, 2020. However, the project never started and there was no public announcement of why by RIDOT. In a response to a question submitted to the agency by a poster at the AARoads Forum in March 2021, financial issues were cited as a reason for its delay. In September 2021 the contract was re-advertised and on October 22, 2021 the project was, guess what, awarded to Liddell Bros. again, this time at a cost of $925,504.7 Based on information in RIDOT's Quarterly report for September 2021, the work was to have started on December 15, but there was no public announcement as of the end of the year. The RIDOT project page was finally updated in early February 2022 to state that exit renumbering on I-95 was tentatively set for 2022 (it had said late 2020 for nearly 2 years). On July 12, 2022 RIDOT announced exit renumbering on I-95 would start on July 31, this was later postponed until August 7 and then finally to August 28, when the first 3 exits on I-95 South were renumbered. A press release indicates that the exit renumbering will contractor will change 2-3 exits a night, doing both directions for the same set of exits before moving on. New exit numbers include 7 instead of 3 for RI 138, 24B replacing 9 for RI 4, 28B instead of 11 for I-295, 36A replacing 19 (NB) or 20 (SB) for I-195, and the highest exit number being 43 instead of 30 for Roosevelt Avenue. As of November 2, all Exits 2-30 had had their numbers changed, there were still some auxiliary signs, however that had not been updated along with missing Old Exit signs at some locations. The complete set of new numbers can be found on the RIDOT Mile-marker Exit Number Project Site.

Earlier, on August 16, 2019, the third, and supposed final renumbering project was awarded, for I-95 and the rest of the routes to be numbered: I-195, RI 24, RI 37.8 The original contract called for work to be completed between December 20, 2019 and February 28, 2020, but the winning bidder, Liddell Bros. complained this was too short a period for construction, because the contract included manufacturing and putting up 6 new cantilever supports and 1 cross highway overhead support, so the contract was amended to extend the deadline and apparently split the work so that the major piece of renumbering, I-95 would occur later. On November 27, 2019, RIDOT announced the first three routes of the final round of exit renumbering would be I-195, RI 10 and RI 37. Work on I-195 was to start on December 2 but snowy weather forced postponement first for a week, then to January 28, 2020. Most of the work was completed by February 9. The exits on RI 10 and RI 37 were renumbered during February (see photos below). The next route to have its exit renumbered was RI 24, work started on that project, which included new exit signs, in March and was completed in June 2020.

The first route to have its exit numbers changed was I-295 in late November/early December 2017, an exit number (1) were also put up on RI 99, whose exit previously had no number. RIDOT advertised a second contract for exit renumbering let on September 11, 2018 that was again awarded to Liddell Bros. of Massachusetts for $697,000. On December 4, RI posted what the new numbers will be on RI 4 and RI 78 (and added numbers for RI 403) on their website as part of this second round. The new signs went up by the end of December (RIDOT posted a travelers advisory saying there would be lane closures for sign work along RI 4, 78 and 403 during the day from December 10-14 and 17-21). From the website, here's an example of how the new exit gore sign for the Gano Street/India Street exit on I-195 East will look like (will plan to post photos of actual signs later in December):

Vermont

The Vermont Department of Transportation (VTrans) has approved an amendment to their 2020 TIP to add supplemental tabs to the bottom of existing sequential exit signs listing the "milepoint" exit number for each exit. The FHWA considers this only as an interim measure before full compliance with the mile-based exit requirement. The actual conversion to mileage based exits may not happen until sometime between 2030 and 2035. The current project will take place during the summer of 2020 and be completed by August. In April 2020, a new Vermont Exit Numbers website was set up to explain the new signs to the public. The signs started going up in early June. Here's a photo of one of the new Milepoint Exit signs taken by project engineer Steve Goodwin on I-89:

The renumbered I-90 and Route 12 exit sign.

*Since I-290 officially begins south of the I-90/Mass Pike and Route 12 exit (see first dual milepost photo below, taken before the I-90 bridge), MassDOT considers this an I-290 exit on its exit listings, however I will place it here to match up with my I-395 Exit List.

I-290 shield image from Wikimedia(*NEW from Google Maps Street View, July and August 2022)

I-290's exits were renumbered between September 8 and 20, 2021. The work had to wait until (most) of new exit signs being put up along I-290 in Worcester were installed. The new I-290 exits use mileage carried over from I-395. To help alert motorists, NCDOT placed dual mile markers (really posting new I-395 markers next to the existing I-290 ones) showing I-290's and the continued I-395 mileage. Unfortunately, they decided to use I-395 shields on the mile markers, potentially confusing drivers or at least making some think I-395 now runs continuous with I-290 (MassDOT has stated they may consider replacing I-290 with an extended I-395 if this causes driver confusion). A better idea, in my view, would have been to have mile markers that replace the I-395 shield with text such as 'Exit Mile.' However, apparently MassDOT got enough feedback from drivers that some time during the late summer of 2022 they removed the dual markers replacing them along I-290 with I-290 sign markers with the total (I-395) mileage listed, photos of these coming soon, here's the latest image I could find showing the dual markers from August 2022, taken from Google Maps Street View:

Image of dual mile markers installed along bridge wall on I-290 West in Worcester, Google Maps Street View image, August 2022

Former Dual Mile Markers

Examples from I-290 East:

Image of tenth dual mile markers for I-290 East and I-395 North recently placed near the I-90/Mass Pike bridge in Auburn, August 2021

Set up for the 2/10 mile version, the first is for I-290 East, the second the mileage continued from the CT border along I-395 North.

Image of first set of newly installed dual mile markers along I-290 East in Auburn, August 2021

The first set of dual mile markers on I-290 East. Did they have to include the I-395 shield? Seems this would cause some driver confusion.

Image of lone I-395 North mile marker put up where I-290 East marker was missing in Shrewsbury, August 2021

In a few cases there was a missing I 290 milepost, but the I-395 milepost was added anyway. More confusion for drivers?

*Some additional mileposts taken on I-290 West, with similar issues:

Image of dual I-290 and I-395 mile markers on I-290 West in Northborough, September 2021

A set of the dual markers headed west in the Northborough area, are drivers heading west to be more confused by the appearance of an I-395 shield?

Image of lone I-395 mile marker on I-290 West in Boylston, September 2021

Another lone I-395 marker without a corresponding I-290 milepost.

Image of lone I-395 2/10 mile marker on I-290 West in Northborough, September 2021

Also the Northborough area, there was at least 1 2/10 mile marker with I-395 mileage not paired with an I-290 version.

Image of pair of older ground mounted 1/2 mile advance signs for To I-90/Mass Pike exit with new milepost based exit number on I-290 West in Auburn, September 2021

A pair of renumbered ground mounted 1/2 Mile advance signs. Since these were replaced by the sign in the distance that was put up before the Exit Renumbering project started, would it have made more sense to remove them than change their exit numbers?

Image of newly placed 1/2 mile advance overhead sign for To I-90/Mass Pike exit with new milepost based exit number on I-290 West in Auburn, September 2021

The renumbered official 1/2 Mile Advance sign for the Pike exit, along with an extended Exit Only tab that explains in great detail (for CT drivers?) where the right lane ends (given that this sign was supposedly designed with milepost exit numbers in mind, why is the bottom line not centered?).

Image of overhead ramp sign for To I-90/Mass Pike exit with new milepost based exit number on I-290 West in Auburn, September 2021

The gantry at the I-90/Mass Pike exit had yet to have been replaced, therefore the new exit number was squeezed onto the existing exit tab, the renumbered gore sign in the distance, with its Old Exit 7 sign, is new.

The ramps for the I-190 North and Route 70 exits are separate on I-290 West, however, the first renumbered advance signs share the same gantry. Notice the Old Exit 19 and 20 signs are posted here, not waiting for the 1 mile advance signs. They also seemed to have problems with centering the exit number for the I-190 exit, see additional photos below.

Work to renumber I-495 exits was done in four sections from south to north, due to coordination with ongoing sign replacement contracts between Bolton and Lowell. Work on the first section, from Route 28 to I-95 in Mansfield started on May 16. Work was supposed to take 5 weeks for the entire route. MassDOT announced that work had been completed only after 4 weeks, but several exits still had old number signs, as of July 22 they still haven't listed the route as complete on their Exit Renumbering website.

The 1 Mile advance for the two separate Route 140 exits, along with the Old Exits 12-11 sign on I-495 South. MassDOT apparently decided to keep the two exit numbers, but since they are connected by a C/D ramp, they could have given them one number and A and B ramps, this would have made it consistent with the one number for MA 140 heading north.

Looks like there's been a delay with the sign replacement (being done by the same contractor as the exit renumbering, you would think they could have coordinated this better).

I-93 shield image from Wikimedia

Work to renumber exits on I-93 started in Boston the week of May 2 and moved northward. Work was to proceed in 2 sections, Exits 13 to 27 (Freeport Street to US 1 in Boston) and then Exits 28 to 48 (Somerville to Methuen). Work was completed the evening of May 20.

EXITS 1 to 12 - No Renumbering

MassDOT has explained not renumbering these exits due to their matching existing mileposts. This is not completely correct. While Exits 6 to 12 match up, Exits 1-5 do not. While not changing exits 1 and 2 is a practical solution despite being within 1 mile of I-95, Exits 3 to 5 could have been changed to better reflect the closest mile marker. If it was up to me Exit 3, Ponkapoag Road, would have become 3A, Exit 4 (Route 24), Exit 3B, and the Route 28 exits would have changed from 5 A/B to 4 A/B. For photos of these exits, visit my I-93 in Mass Photo Gallery.

I-95 shield image from Wikimedia

Exit renumbering on I-95 began on February 25, 2021 on the first of 4 separate sections. Work started in New Hampshire since that is where the exit signs for the Route 286 (and the first advance sign for I-495) were located. Since NH is not likely to have milepost based exit numbering for awhile (see above), these will likely be the only signs of this type in the Granite State for a while. Work proceeded further south in the next couple weeks, reaching the southern end of the second section, US 20 in Waltham 3 weeks later on March 16.

The 1 Mile advance sign headed south for the Route 9 exit has an incorrect exit tab, which should have said Exits 20 B-A and now should say Exits 36 B-A, the Old Exit sign is incorrect because of that.

Image of 1/2 Mile advance overhead sign for MA 9 West exit with new milepost based exit number on I-95/MA 128 South in Wellesley, April 2021

The renumbered 1 Mile advance for the US 1 and Route 1A exits heading north (and south on US 1) shares a gantry with the 1/2 mile advance for East Street/Canton Street. The distance seems a little too short for a mile, especially given the sign below:

The 1 Mile advance sign, the first for just the Lowell Connector and I-495 North exits, originally had the wrong numbers, the exit tab reading Exits 81 A-B, this was corrected at the end of the project, perhaps though it should say Exits 80-81A.

The 1/4 mile advance does have the yellow Old EXIT 26 sign. Notice the vast difference in exit numbers (and implied distance) prior to the exits for the I-95 exits being changed. When the I-95 exit number is changed there will be 2 miles listed between Exits 73 and 74, for the exit ramp is just before the Mile 74 marker, see photo below.

Image of gantry with 1/2 mile advance sign for Airport Road/North Main Street exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 24 South in Fall River, January 2021

The renumbered 1/2 mile advance sign, these signs have not been replaced, and all that was done was remove the A from the exit tab. This exit was 8 before the Innovation Way exit was built. The 1-Mile advance sign for the Route 79 exit maintains its existing number, as do all the rest of the exits along Route 24 to the Rhode Island border.

Image of overhead ramp sign for Airport Road/North Main Street exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 24 South in Fall River, January 2021

The signs at the exit are new, and instead of removing the A, an overlay, hard to see, was placed over it to change the exit number. The gore sign was revised the same way.

Image of overhead signage at Airport Road/North Main Street exit with new milepost based exit number and gore sign with new number and yellow Old Exit 8A sign below on MA 24 North in Fall River, January 2021

The overhead signage northbound at the Airport Road/North Main Street exit, here it appears the A, at least on the gore sign, was simply removed to change the exit number.

US 6 shield image from Wikimedia

Exit renumbering on the Mid-Cape Highway portion of US 6 started on December 14 and completed the morning of December 24, 2020. The photos below run, mostly, along US 6 East from Bourne to Orleans, by old exit number:

Old EXIT 1C

The signage for the Route 6A exit actually begins at the end of Route 3 South:

Image of 1 3/4 miles advance overhead sign with new milepost based exit number for MA 6A exit on MA 3 South in Bourne, December 2020

This is the second advance sign, the first is at 2 1/2 miles before the MA 3A exit, the exit tab has been altered to place the first US 6 exit number, 55 to the exit tab. In my opinion this complicates things, they should have just removed the reference to Exit 1C.

Image of 1-mile advance overhead signs for US 6 exits with milepost based exit number placed for MA 6A exit at end of MA 3 South in Bourne, December 2020

The 1-Mile advance signs, the need to place a 55 in the former spot of exit 1C crowds the exit tab of the left sign, again would have been simpler just to remove the 1C reference.

Image of 3/4 mile advance sign for MA 6A exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit sign on right support post on US 6 East in Bourne, December 2020

The 3/4 mile advance sign where MA 3 South ends at US 6, notice the yellow Old Exit 1C sign on the right, this will be the last one of that color.

Image of overhead signs at ramp for MA 6A exit with new milepost based exit number and green old exit sign on right support post on US 6 East in Bourne, December 2020

The overhead signs at Route 6A exit, notice the former Exit 1B reference has been removed from the left sign and the Old Exit 1C sign on the right is now green. Apparently yellow signs on Cape Cod are not in character for the tourist destination.

Image of gore sign for MA 6A exit with new milepost based exit number and  green old exit sign below on US 6 East in Bourne, December 2020

The gore sign at the Route 6A exit, by the blinking yellow light, the green Old Exit 1C sign is much larger than others on the route.

A quick look at the westbound signage:

Image of 2 miles advance overead sign for MA 3 and MA 6A exits with new milepost based exit number on US 6 West in Bourne, December 2020

The 2 Miles advance sign for both Routes 6A and 3, only the exit for 6A has been renumbered although all were previously exits off of US 6.

Image of auxiliary sign for MA 3 and MA 6A exits with new milepost based exit number on US 6 West in Bourne, December 2020

This auxiliary sign for both Routes 3 and US 6, hints at a problem with the upcoming exit for US 6, no change in exit tabs implying that it is now an exit off of Route 3.

Image of advance overead sign for MA 3 and MA 6A exits with new milepost based exit number for MA 6A on US 6 West in Bourne, December 2020

The 1 Miles advance sign for both Routes 3 and US, the Exit 1A is for Scusset Beach Road, if truly an exit off of Route 3, the US 6 sign should be Exits 1 A-B and the tab removed from the Route 3 North sign. This continues across the bridge, for those signs, see the Route 3 section below.

Image of 1/4 mile advavnce overhead sign for MA 6A exit with new milepost based exit number and green old exit sign on support post on US 6 West in Bourne, December 2020

I-90 shield from Wikimedia

The renumbering of exit signs along the Mass Pike/I-90 began on December 13, 2020. Work did not start at the eastern end, but rather at I-95/Route 128 in Weston and headed west. Work concluded around January 15, 2021 after renumbering had made it to the NY border and back east as far as the Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit, and the I-93 exit in Boston, and then back west to Weston as of January 5. The last exits to be renumbered were the Prudential Center, South Boston and Logan Airport exits the week of January 10. The photos will go East to West based on the old exit number:

Old EXIT 26 (EB)

This exit was renumbered as of January 17:

The number in the exit tab does not look as good as the illustration MassDOT made when first publicizing the exit renumbering project:

Overhead signage in the Ted Williams Tunnel for the Logan Airport exit, the number has been changed but the overlay is too reflective to see in this photo.

Old EXITS 25/24 (WB)

Exit signs heading west have been renumbered as of January 9:

Image of 1 1/2 mile advance sign for I-93 and South Boston Exits mounted to roof of Ted Williams Tunnel with new milepost based exit numbers, January 2021

Here's my attempt to capture the first advance sign in the Ted Williams Tunnel, the new exit number overlay shows up more brightly than the surrounding sign.

Image of 1/4 mile advance sign overhead sign for I-93 and South Boston Exits with new milepost based exit numbers, January 2021

Here's the last advance sign after leaving the Ted Williams Tunnel, the new exit number overlay has much smaller numbers than the original tab to fit two 3-digit numbers.

                                       with yellow Old exit numbers sign below, January 2021

The signs at the ramp portal, notice the yellow old exit number sign under the gore sign omits the word exit, other examples to come.

                                       with yellow Old exit numbers sign below, January 2021

The signs at the ramp split, with another yellow sign below the gore sign omitting the word exit.

Old EXIT 25 (EB)

The exit signs were renumbered between January 9 and 15:

Image of 1-Mile advance overhead sign for South Boston exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Boston, January 2021

The 1-mile advance sign, bridge mounted, next to it a Hazardous Cargo advisory sign now with a rather small exit number.

Image of overhead signs mounted to ceiling of tunnel under Fort Point Channel for South Boston exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Massachusetts Turnpike in South Boston, January 2021

The exit numbers in the Fort Point Channel tunnel have for the South Boston exit also have been changed but, again, the overlay is too bright to show the number in this image.

Old EXIT 24 (EB)

Image of yellow warning advance sign for I-93/South Station exits on I-90/Mass Pike East in Boston with unchanged exit number, January 2021

The yellow advance signs warning of curves on the exit ramps did not have their numbers changed until January 15.

Image of 1/4 Mile Advance overhead signs for I-93 and South Station exits with new milepost based exit numbers on I-90/Mass Pike East in Boston, January 2021

The green advance signs did have new exit numbers, as with these 1/2 mile advance signs.

The signs at the exit ramp.

Here's a MassDOT photo posted on Twitter with a closer look showing numbers being changed at the I-93 exit:

*Here are new photos capturing the new exit numbers along the I-93 and South Station exit ramps:

                                         East in Boston, February 2021

The signs at the split of the ramps to South Station and I-93.

                                         East in Boston, February 2021

The signs at the split of the ramps for I-93 North and South.

Image of gore signs for I-93 and South Boston exits with new milepost based exit numbers on I-90 
                                         East in Boston, February 2021

The gore signs at the split of the ramps to I-93 North and South, notice there is no space between 134 and the letter on the top sign.

Old EXIT 22 (EB)

For the Prudential Center/Copley Square exit, the overhead signs were renumbered between January 9 and 15:

Image of 1 1/2 Miles advance bridge mounted sign for Prudential Center exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Massachusetts Turnpike East in Boston, January 2021

The button-copy 1 1/2 Mile advance now has an exit number not matching the one on the Old Exit sign.

Image of auxiliary sign for Prudential Center exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow Old Exit 22 sign on support post on I-90 East in Boston, January 2021

Unlike the sign see the previous week:

Image of 1/2 Mile advance overhead sign for Prudential Center exit with unchanged sequential exit number but yellow
                                      old exit sign on support post on I-90 East in Boston, January 2021 Image of overhead signs in Prudential Center tunnel with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Massachusetts Turnpike East in Boston, January 2021

The exit number has been change on the sign approaching the exit ramp, but too bright to see the number in this photo too. The gore sign seen in the distance had been changed the week before.

Old EXIT 20 (WB)

Image of overhead guide sign for U-Turn for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90 West in Boston, January 2021

The advance signs for the exit still do not have exit tabs, so no exit numbers, nor and Old Exit 18 sign, the U-Turn notification sign, however, has gotten a new number.

Image of gore sign for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign below on I-90 West in Boston, January 2021

The small sign at the exit gore was renumbered along with an almost as large Old (Exit) 20 sign below.

Prior to the Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit is this auxiliary sign for the I-93 and South Boston exits on I-90 East which had its new numbers installed after all the exits were renumbered:

Image of auxilary sign for I-93 and South Boston exits with new milepost based exit numbers on I-90 East in Allston-Brighton, January 2021

Here it was back in January with the old exit numbers still listed:

Old EXIT 18 (EB)

Image of 1-Mile advance overhead sign for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on right support post on I-90 East in Boston, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance paired with a VMS, the Old Exit 18 sign on the right support post.

Image of small auxilary sign for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90 East in Boston, January 2021

This auxiliary paddle sign for Fenway Park does have the new exit number.

Image of overhead signs at ramp for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90 East in Boston, January 2021

The overhead signs at the ramp for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge and the pull through with Boston as a control city, guess Allston-Brighton  doesn't count as Boston.

Between the Allston-Brighton and Prudential Center exits there is a small sign for the Encore Boston Harbor Casino in Everett, which is posted on the right support for the toll gantry and includes a Left banner, like the auxiliary sign for I-93 and South Boston, this was one of the last signs given a new number:

Old EXIT 17

Image of 1-mile advance sign for Newton/Watertown exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow Old Exit 17 sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Newton, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance sign heading west on I-90, the first instance of the old exit tab being high on the sign support.

Image of overhead ramp sign for Newton/Watertown exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow Old Exit 17 sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Newton, January 2021

The overhead sign at the exit ramp, where the Pike narrows to 3-lanes before heading under the hotel.

Image of gore sign for Newton/Watertown exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow Old Exit 17 sign below on I-90/Mass Pike West in Newton, January 2021

A closeup of gore sign. Guess they decided to use thin numbers on the existing sign instead of a new sign with wider numbers.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for Newton/Watertown exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Newton, January 2021

The 1/2 Mile advance sign heading east. This exit is closer to Mile 128, did they use 127 because they thought some drivers would think this is the exit to Route 128?

Image of overhead ramp sign for Newton/Watertown exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Newton, January 2021

The bridge mounted exit sign. Given the traffic backup, perhaps some drivers would think this is Route 128.

Old EXIT 16 (WB)

Image of 1 1/4 Miles advance bridge mounted sign for MA 16 Exit with new milepost based number and yellow old Exit 16 sign below on separate posts on I-90 West in Newton, January 2021

The unusual 1 1/4 Miles bridge-mounted advance sign for the Route 16 exit, not longer to have a corresponding exit number, notice the Old Exit 16 sign is mounted below.

Image of 1/4 Mile advance bridge mounted sign for MA 16 Exit with new milepost based number I-90 West in Newton, January 2021

The next sign is the 1/4 Mile advance sign just before the Washington Street bridge.

Image of overhead ramp sign for MA 16 Exit with new milepost based number and gore sign with new number and yellow old Exit 16 sign below on I-90 West in Newton, January 2021

The unusual 1 1/4 Miles bridge-mounted advance sign for the Route 16 exit, not longer to have a corresponding exit number, notice the Old Exit 16 sign is mounted below.

Old EXITS 15 A/B (WB)

Photos taken westbound between Weston and I-495 on December 20 and eastbound on January 9. 

Image of 1 1/2 mile advance overhead sign for I-95/To MA 30 exits with new milepost based numbers on I-90/Mass Pike West in Newton, December 2020

The first sign for the Weston exits is 1 1/2 miles before, notice the Old Exit sign is not on the support.

Image of 1-mile advance sign for I-95 and To MA 30 exits with new milepost based exit numbers and yellow old exit number sign on support on I-90/Mass Pike West in Newton

The Old Exits 15 B-A sign appears with the 1-Mile advance sign, notice the placement near the top of the support, unlike on other renumbered routes (below). Different contractor with different standards?

Image of 1/2 mile advance overhead sign for I-95 and To MA 30 exits with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Weston, December 2020

 The last of the advance signs. The three digit and 1 letter fit well into the exit tabs.

Image of overhead signs at ramp for To MA 30 exit with new milepost based exit numbers on I-90/Mass Pike West in Weston, December 2020

The overheads with the new exit numbers at the site of the former Weston Toll Plaza.

Image of gore sign for To MA 30 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number tab below on I-90/MassPike West in Weston, December 2020

The number on the gore sign, however, looks a little crooked, and a little too far to the left.

Image of overhead signs at ramp for I-95 exit with new milepost based exit number and gore sign beyond with new number and yellow old exit number tab below on I-90/Mass Pike West in Weston, December 2020

The last overhead sign for the I-95/Route 128 exit, there's no longer any mention of 128 on any signs on either direction along the Pike.

Old EXIT 14 (EB)

Image of 2-Miles advance overhead diagrammatic sign for I-95 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Weston, January 2021

The 2-Miles advance diagrammatic sign for the I-95 (Route 128) exit. When this sign was first put up, reportedly it had the exit number for the Route 30 exit, 117, which has been fixed.

Image of ground mounted auxiliary sign for I-95 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Weston, January 2021

The auxiliary sign for Route 30 apparently also had the number for the previous Route 30 exit, 117, also fixed.

Image of 1-Mile advance overhead diagrammatic sign for I-95 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow Old Exit 14 sign on right support post on I-90/Mass Pike East in Weston, January 2021

The old exit tab for the I-95 exit is also on the 1-Mile, not 2-Miles advance sign. The number fits well within the 3-digit designed exit tab.

Image of overhead ramp sign for I-95 exit with new milepost based exit number and gore sign with new number in distance on I-90/Mass Pike East in Weston, January 2021

The overhead signs at the I-95 (Route 128) exit. Again the gore sign was not replaced so one is left with thin 3-digit exit numbers.

Old EXIT 13

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for MA 30 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Natick, December 2020

The 1-Mile advance, here the first sign has the Old Exit 13 sign, again high on the support post.

Image of auxiliary sign for MA 30 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Natick, December 2020

The blue auxiliary hospital sign has been updated prior to the 1/2 mile advance sign.

Image of overhead sign for MA 30 exit ramp with new milepost based exit number and gore sign beyond with new number and yellow old exit number tab below on I-90/Mass Pike West in Natick, December 2020

The exit sign with the new number. Traffic reports call this the Natick interchange, but as the town line sign shows, it is actually in Framingham.

Image of 1/2 Mile advance overhead sign for the MA 30 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Framingham, January 2021

The 1/2 mile advance sign for the Route 30 exit heading east. Not known if one of these exits signs had the number for the I-95 exit for a short while.

Old EXIT 12

Image of auxiliary sign for MA 9 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Framingham, December 2020

The first new exit number sign for Route 9 is an auxiliary sign for Framingham State University.

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for MA 9 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Framingham, December 2020

The 1-Mile advance sign with the three digits fitting well into the exit tab.

Image of overhead ramp sign for MA 9 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Framingham, December 2020

The overhead at exit ramp.

Image of gore sign for MA 9 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number tab below on I-90/Mass Pike West in Framingham, December 2020

A closeup of the gore sign for Route 9, again the number is somewhat crooked, and given the digits, could be spaced out a little more.

Image of 1/2 Mile advance overhead sign with new milepost based exit number on MA 9 exit in Framingham, January 2021

The 1/2 mile advance sign for the Route 9 exit heading east. The auxiliary sign for the Park and Ride lot before this sign still supported the old Exit 12 number.

Old EXIT 11A

Image of 2-miles advance overhead sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Southboro, December 2020

The first sign, the 2-Miles advance for I-495, again no old exit number tab here.

Image of auxiliary sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Southboro, December 2020

The auxiliary sign for the I-495 exit, here the exit number could have been a little smaller.

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Southboro, December 2020

The 1-Mile advance has the old exit tab, soon to be no more separate alphabet exits on the Pike.

Image of overhead ramp sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Hopkinton, December 2020

The overheads at the I-495 exit ramp, there are two down arrows because a second lane begins after the sign.

Image of gore sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number tab underneath on I-90/Mass Pike West in Southboro, December 2020

The closeup of the gore sign when leaving the Pike, the exit number could have been pushed a little farther to the right.

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike East in Westboro, January 2021

The 2-Miles advance sign heading east, the Old Exit 11A sign is again on the 1-Mile advance.

Image of 1/2 mile advance overhead sign for I-495 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Hopkinton, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance has the old exit tab, soon to be no more separate alphabet exits on the Pike.

Old EXIT 11

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for MA 122 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow Old Exit 11 sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Millbury, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance sign with the Old Exit 11 sign near the top of the support post.

The 1-Mile advance sign heading east.

Image of auxiliary sign for MA 122 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Millbury, January 2021

An auxiliary blue Hospital sign with the new milepost based exit number, not quite centered on the sign.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for MA 122 exit with new milepost based exit number and Next Exit 10 miles tab below on I-90/Mass Pike East in Millbury, January 2021

The 1/2 Mile advance sign, even with milepost numbers, I guess its good to know the I-495 exit is 10 miles away.

Image of overhead ramp sign for MA 122 exit with new milepost based exit number and gore sign with new number and yellow Old Exit 11 sign below on I-90/Mass Pike East in Millbury, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance sign heading east, notice the number doesn't fit in very well on the exit tab this direction.

Old EXIT 10A

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for US 20/MA 146 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike West in Worcester, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance sign with its old exit number sign, notice the extra space on the right of the exit tab now since there's no need for an A.

Image of overhead ramp sign for US 20/MA 146 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Worcester, January 2021

The overhead exit sign, the new number is better centered here, but...

Image of gore sign for US 20/MA 146 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit sign below on I-90/Mass Pike West in Worcester, January 2021

You would think they would have tried harder to center the exit number on the gore sign. Similar problems heading east...

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for US 20/MA 146 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit sign on support post on I-90/Mass Pike East in Worcester, January 2021

The 1-Mile advance sign with its old exit number sign.

Image of overhead ramp sign for US 20/MA 146 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike East in Worcester, January 2021

The exit sign, the number again slightly better centered than the 1-Mile sign.

Image of gore sign for US 20/MA 146 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit sign below on I-90/Mass Pike East in Worcester, January 2021

But the gore sign again leans a little too much to the left.

Old EXIT 10

Image of 2-miles advance overhead sign for I-290/I-395/MA 12 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Auburn, by Vinh Lam, December 2020

The 2-Miles advance sign for the Auburn exit with the two interstates that will share mileage for their exit numbers, the Old Exit sign will have to wait.

Image of auxiliary sign for I-290/I-395/MA 12 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Auburn, by Vinh Lam, December 2020

The blue Attractions sign for the Auburn exit with a new exit number, but still waiting for something attractive.

The 1-Mile advance sign with the Old Exit 10 sign.

Image of Route 12 auxiliary sign for I-290/I-395/MA 12 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Auburn, by Vinh Lam, December 2020

The auxiliary sign for Route 12 designed when the original exit sign was to only have I-290 and I-395, apparently no one told the contractor the sign was no longer needed after the overhead sign redesign.

Image of overhead ramp sign for I-290/I-395/MA 12 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Auburn, by Vinh Lam, December 2020

The overhead sign at the exit ramp. On my next trip I got some photos headed east:

                                             on I-90/Mass Pike East in Auburn, April 2021

The renumbered 2-Miles advance heading east.

                                             on I-90/Mass Pike East in Auburn, April 2021

The still empty attractions sign, with its new number, still apparently nothing to see in Worcester.

Image of 1/2 Mile advance overhead sign for I-290/I-395/MA 12 exit with new milepost based exit number 
                                             on I-90/Mass Pike East in Auburn, April 2021

The 1/2 mile advance which unlike other 1/2 Mile Exit Only signs on the Pike, has the distance.

                                             on I-90/Mass Pike East in Auburn, April 2021

The exit sign, still with two arrows for the one exit lane.

Old EXIT 9

Photos taken on April 4:

Check out this iCloud Album for additional photos.

Here's a traffic camera photo showing what appears to be an Old Exit sign below the gore for the I-291 exit in Springfield, meaning exit renumbering has gotten that far west as of December 21:

MassDOT traffic camera image at I-291 exit in Springfield showing new milepost number on gore sign, December 2020

As indicated above, the exits have not been renumbered east of I-95/Route 128, here's one of the unique signs in Boston that will soon have a new number:

Image of overhead sign for U-Turn with existing exit number on I-90 West in Boston, December 2020

This is why no new exit tab appeared in this MassDOT traffic camera photo taken beyond Commonwealth Avenue on Dec. 16:

Image of MassDOT traffic camera looking west at I-90/Mass Pike near Commonwealth Avenue bridge showing no exit tab on overhead sign for Allston-Brighton-Cambridge exit, December 2020

When these signs were put up a couple years ago without exit tabs I thought that this may have to do with the upcoming exit renumbering, turned out not to be the case.  The rest of the photos were taken later in July 2021:

Old EXIT 8

The 2 Miles advance sign for the I-291 exit, as typical for the Mass Pike, the Old Exit sign will have to wait.

An all brown historic site for I-291 (had to post this since it has to do with Shay's Rebellion in 1787 which was put down by Hingham's own General Benjamin Lincoln).

Another renumbered auxiliary sign for UMass Amherst, or is it the other way around?

Image of auxiliary sign for I-91/US 5 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90/Mass Pike West in Springfield, July 2021

This US 5 auxiliary seems redundant since the route is in the advance signs, and are you going to take US 5 to Hartford? Plus there's another UMass listing.

A blue Attractions services sign with a very tiny new exit number. Now it becomes interesting...

Image of 1/2 mile advance overhead sign for US 20 exit without milepost based exit number, but listing exit 2 on I-90/Mass Pike East in Lee, Google Maps Street View image, June 2022

The 1/2 Mile advance sign but with the old Exit 2 listed. My theory is that this was the last new sign put up as part of the I-90 sign replacement project in the spring of 2021 (there was no existing 1/2 mile advance that this replaced) after the exit renumbering project was over. All the signs were manufactured with the old number. Why this wasn't noticed at the time, or fixed in the year since is unknown.

Image of new 1/2 mile advance sign for MA 41 to MA 102 exit with new milepost based exit number on I-90 West in West Stockbridge, Google Maps Street View, June 2022

Like the 1/2 mile advance sign for US 20 headed east, there was no previous version to replace in this direction. Unlike US 20, the exit number is correct.

MA 3 route shield from Wikimedia 

MA 3 exits were renumbered between the evening of December 1 and the morning of the December 14th, 2020. Photos will show the exit number changes starting from Braintree and working southbound by exit, in both directions:

OLD EXIT 20 (NB):

Image of 2 miles advance overhead sign for I-93 exits with new milepost based exit numbers and yellow old exit number tab on support on MA 3 North in Braintree, December 2020

The I-93 exit was one of the last to be renumbered starting the evening of December 13. Here's the 2 Miles advance sign, which has the Old Exits 20 A-B sign. Those signs are supposed to be on the first exit sign, but has not always been the case (see Route 25 and I-195 photos below).

Imabe of 1-mile advance overhead diagrammatic sign for I-93 exits with new milepost based exit numbers on MA 3 North in Braintree, December 2020

The 1-Mile advance, the first of 2 diagrammatic signs. Too bad MassDOT didn't take advantage of the exit number change to add US 1 shields to the signs or the support posts.

The first sign renumbered on MA 3 South is for two exits, Burgin Parkway and Washington Street, no old exit number signs appear on the right support for these exits here.

The overhead signs at the Burgin Parkway and Washington Street ramp heading toward Route 3 South from I-93/US 1 North.

OLD EXIT 19 (NB)

There is no Exit 18 headed north, so the Next Exit 19 sign has been updated:

This blank Lodging Services Sign was given the new milepost number for the Route 18 exit. It used to have a Super 8 Hotel logo on it, but its now the Boston Hotel and apparently not worthy of being on this sign.

OLD EXIT 8

Image of 1/2 mile advance overhead sign form Smith Lane exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support post on MA 3 North in Kingston, December 2020

Due to the short distance from the US 44 West exit, there is no 1 Mile advance sign for the Smith Lane exit, so the first sign is the 1/2 mile advance which gets the Old Exit 8 sign.

Image of overhead signs at ramp to Smith Lane exit with new milepost based exit numbers on MA 3 North in Kingston, December 2020

The overhead gantry at the Smith Lane exit also has the 3/4 mile advance for the Route 3A Kingston exit, the old exit sign is placed on the 1/2 mile advance for that exit, no photo.

OLD EXIT 7

First heading south...

Image of 1 mile advance sign for US 44 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support on MA 3 South in Plymouth, December 2020

This overhead sign was put up earlier this year. The exit tab was designed to hold the 2-digit milepost based number, but it looks like the overlay was placed directly over the old exit number (see photo below), leaving too much space on the right.

Heading north...

The Plimoth Plantation Highway exit uses diagrammatic signs and the Old Exit 4 sign is along the left support.

Image of auxiliary sign for Plimoth Plantation Highway exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 3 South in Plymouth, December 2020

The brown auxiliary sign advertising Plimoth Plantation has the new exit number, but not the new name for the attraction which is now Plimouth Pawtuxet Museum.

Image of overhead signs at ramp for Plimoth Plantation Highway exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 3 South in Plymouth, December 2020

The newly numbered Plimoth Plantation Highway exit sign, the only left exit on Route 3, due to the Highway being part of the original alignment for the Route 3 Bypass of Plymouth, built before it became part of Braintree to Cape Cod expressway.

Since there is no Plimoth Plantation Highway exit northbound, the next exit sign has been revised...

OLD EXIT 3

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for Clark Road exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number sign on support post on MA 3 North in Plymouth, December 2020

The 1 Mile advance sign for Clark Road, now Exit 7. The Boston Globe had an article about the retirement community at Pine Hills having an advertising slogan of Exit 3 off of Route 3 and not being happy with the change of numbers.

OLD EXIT 2

Image of 1-mile advance overhead sign for MA 3A North exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit number tab on support on MA 3 North in Plymouth

The 1-Mile advance for the first renumbered exit heading north on Route 3. The exit is almost a 1/2 mile before the Mile 3 marker and could have been left numbered as it was.

Image of auxiliary sign for MA 3A North exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 3 North in Plymouth

The first auxiliary sign northbound to have a new exit number.

Image of overhead ramp sign for MA 3A North exit with new milepost based exit number and gore sign with new number and yellow old exit number tab below on MA 3 North in Plymouth

The overhead and gore sign at the Route 3A North exit, the first of three between here and Duxbury.

EXIT 1

Though not renumbered, there was speculation of changes to the exit signs northbound since under the old system, Route 3 North was an exit from US 6 West, now two exits after the Sagamore Bridge are numbered as Route 3 exits. Would this result in the shifting of exit tabs from the Route 3 sign to the US 6 exit sign? Not at least yet.

Image of overhead signs at US 6 exit off of MA 3 North in Bourne

The signs at the ramp to Scusset Beach Road, will the Exit 1B tab be moved to be over the US 6 exit?

Image of overhead signs at US 6 exit off of MA 3 North in Bourne

The gore signs for the US 6 exit would have to be changed as well.

There may be changes when US 6 is renumbered. The southbound signs approaching the bridge have Exit 1C for Route 6A, which will now be Exit 55.

Image of overhead signs on MA 3 South in Bourne for US 6 approaching the Sagamore Bridge, July 2016

Will they change the left tab to Exits 55-1B or simply remove the 1C reference? I will post any changed I see when I document the exit changes on the Cape later in December.

Route 25 exits were renumbered the night of November 24-25, 2020:

Image of a 3-miles advance ground mounted sign for US 6 exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 25 East in Bourne, November 2020

There is actually a 3-Miles advance sign for the final exit, US 6. Added so that people can figure out how long the backup to the Bourne Bridge is in the summer?

Image of blue old fashioned services sign (without logos) with new milepost based exit number on MA 25 East in Bourne, November 2020

This old style blue services sign, no logos, was not replaced, just the new exit number added.

Image of 2-miles advance overhead sign for US 6 exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 25 East in Bourne, November 2020

The 2-Miles advance sign is an overhead variety, but the old exit sign is not on this sign either.

Image of ground mounted auxiliary sign for US 6 exit with new milepost based exit number on MA 25 East in Bourne, November 2020

The auxiliary sign for the Massachusetts Maritime Academy has been updated with the new exit number.

Image of 1 mile advance overhead sign for the US 6 exit with new milepost based exit number and yellow old exit sign on support post on MA 25 East in Bourne, November 2020

The 1-Mile advance does include the Old Exit 3 sign, wouldn't it be better to put this on the first advance sign for an exit, or at least the first overhead sign?

Another updated auxiliary sign.

Old EXIT 22

The last exit on I-195 East was not renumbered with the rest of the highway, but was done more than two weeks later on Nov. 23, 2020:

Image of 2-mile advanced diagrammatic sign with new milepost based exit number on I-195 East in Wareham, November 2020

The first renumbered exit sign on I-195 West on the ramp from Route 25 West, because there's no 1-Mile advance sign, the old exit sign was placed here.

I assume this exit was not forgotten about and will be given new numbers at the same time Route 25 is renumbered starting the night of November 8.

Route 140 exits were the first to be renumbered from October 18 to 22, 2020:

Heading north toward Route 24 on October 19, the day after the renumbering project started. Only the Route 24 exit had new numbers:

They also put up a new I-195 advance sign. Notice no exit number, and Exit 2 Miles text. If they did this due to the upcoming MassDOT Exit Renumbering Project, they didn't need to worry, the current plan is for Route 24's exits to stay the same through Exit 7, though it means that Exit 3 for I-195 West is 2 miles from the border.

The only missing new sign spotted was one of the blue service signs for the MA 81 exit at the border, and if you're wondering how long Route 24 is in Rhode Island, it's a little more than 7.6 miles.

RI 146 EXIT NUMBERING (2019-2020)

Image of new milepost based number gore sign at start of second section of RI 146 South Freeway in North Smithfield

The intersection with Reservoir Road just prior to the re-start of the freeway has received an Exit 9 gore sign despite a short ramp that ends at a stop sign trying to access RI 146 South.

Image of new milepost exit sign on support for I-295/RI 116 ramp sign on RI 146 South in Lincoln

The support post here has a sign with 3 new milepost based exit number, for I-295 South and North and RI 116.

Image of sign with milepost based exit number on support for I-295 South overhead ramp sign on RI 146 South in Lincoln

There is a separate sign for I-295 South's new exit number on the support post prior to the ramp, it appears the sign for I-295 North is in more need of replacement.

Image of new milepost based exit number sign on support posts for overhead ramp sign for I-295 North on RI 146 South in Lincoln

The new number for I-295 North, hopefully the next sign will not say 'Boston, Ma.'

Image of new milepost based number gore sign for I-295 North exit on RI 146 South in Lincoln

The gore sign for the I-295 North exit, placed in the spring of 2019.

The contractor has also placed most of the other new number gore signs along the RI 146 South from I-295 to at least RI 15, by end of June 2019:

Image of new exit number gore sign for North RI 116 exit on RI 146 South in Lincoln

The gore sign for the North RI 116 exit, Exit 7A.

Image of overhead sign and new exit number gore sign for RI 123 exit on RI 146 South in Lincoln

The existing overhead sign and new exit number, 5, gore sign for the RI 123 exit. (also new exit number 6 gore sign at RI 246 exit, not photographed).

Image of overhead signs and new exit number gore tabs at Twin River Road exit on RI 146 South in Lincoln

Hard to see, but the new exit number for the Twin River Road (and Casino) exit is 4B.

Image of new exit number gore sign and exit ramp overhead sign for RI 246 exit on RI 146 South in Lincoln

The new exit number gore sign for the RI 246/Old Louquisset Pike exit is 4A.

Image of new exit number gore sign for RI 15 exit on RI 146 South in North Providence

The last new exit number gore sign I photographed was at the RI 15 exit in North Providence, new Exit 2.

Images of new exit numbers and signs on RI 4 and RI 403 taken on March 17, 2019:

RI 4

Image of first new overhead advance sign with new exit number and old exit number tab on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The first new sign southbound with new exit number is the 1/4 advance sign for the RI 401 exit just after leaving I-95.

Image of new overhead ramp sign with new exit number and old exit number tab on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The sign at the exit ramp is also new with the Old Exit 8 tab, however, the pull through sign was not replaced.

Image of new exit gore sign with old exit number tab for RI 401 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The new gore sign with yellow old exit tab below for the RI 401 exit.

Image of new exit sign with unchanged exit number for RI 403/RI 402 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The 1-Mile advance sign for the RI 403/RI 402 exit was replaced although the exit number did not change.

Image of existing overhead sign, not replaced, for RI 403/RI 402 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The overhead 1/2 Mile advance sign was not replaced, the mile marker below is for Mile 8.

Image of new 1 mile advance overhead sign for RI 2 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The 1 1/2 mile advance overhead sign was given the new exit number and old exit number tab. The new exit signs to come no longer include the south direction.

Image of new 3/4 mile advance sign for RI 2 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The new 3/4 mile advance sign for the RI 2 exit is ground mounted, as was the original sign (see photos below).

Image of new ramp sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The new ramp sign is partially obscured by trees, hope they plan to take care of this problem before spring comes.

Image of new exit number gore sign with old exit number tab for RI 2 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

New gore sign with the new number, 5 and the old number, 6, tab on RI 4 South.

Image of new auxiliary sign with new exit number for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 South in Exeter

The exit number was changed on this auxiliary sign for the upcoming RI 2/RI 102 exit.

Image of new 1-Mile advance sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 South in Exeter

New 1-Mile advance sign for the RI 2/RI 102 exits, the text of the VMS sign beyond was special for St. Patrick's Day.

Image of new 1/2 mile sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2/RI 102 exits on RI 4 South in Exeter

The 1/2 Mile advance duplicates the 1-Mile.

Image of revised auxiliary sign with new exit number for train station for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 South in Exeter

Another revised auxiliary sign, this for the commuter rail station in Wickford.

Image of new exit gore sign for RI 2 South, RI 102 West exit on RI 4 South in Exeter

The new exit number gore sign for the first RI 2/RI 102 exit with the old exit tab below.

Image of new ramp sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2 North/RI 102 South exit on RI 4 South in Exeter

The new ground-mounted sign for the second RI 2/RI 102 exit.

Image of new gore sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2 North/RI 102 South exit on RI 4 South in Exeter

The new gore sign with old exit number tab for the last exit on RI 4 South in Exeter.

Image of existing last exit number sign on RI 4 South in Exeter

If you doubt this is the last exit on RI 4 South, there's this sign for confirmation. Turning around and heading north...

Image of new 1 mile advance sign for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in Exeter

The 1-Mile advance sign for the combined RI 2/RI 102 exit heading northbound.

Image of new high-mounted blue services sign for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in Exeter

This new tall blue services sign apparently is leaving room for additional logos in the future.

Image of new 1/2 mile advance sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in Exeter

The new 1/2 mile advance sign for now Exit 3 is somewhat of a let down after the services sign.

Image of new ramp sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in Exeter

The mile marker helps confirm the new exit number on the ramp sign for the RI  2 / RI 102 exit is correct.

Image of new gore sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2/RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in Exeter

The new exit number gore sign for the RI 2 / RI 102 exit on RI 4 North.

Image of new 1-mile advance sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The new ground-mounted 1-mile advance sign with new exit number for the RI 2 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich.

Image of new 1/2 mile advance sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The 1/2 mile was the same, and then the ramp sign with different length supports due to it being mounted on a hill.

Image of new gore sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 2 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The new gore sign for the RI 2 exit followed by the unchanged overhead 1-mile advance sign for the RI 403 exit (photos of new exit numbers on that route below).

Image of new auxiliary sign with new exit number for RI 104 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The auxiliary sign for New England Tech sports the new exit number for the RI 401 exit ahead.

Image of new 1-mile advance sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 401/RI 2/ I-95 (North) exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The new RI 401 exit 1-Mile advance sign features RI 2 and I-95 which should have a 'To' in front of them, and a North for I-95.

Image of new auxilary sign with new exit number for RI 104 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The new auxiliary sign has the new number, but would it be simpler just to say Division Street?

Image of new 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 401 East exit with new exit number and old exit number tab on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The new 1/4 mile advance sign is only for the RI 401 East exit.

Image of new overhead signs with new exit numbers and old exit number tab at RI 403 East ramp from RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The 1/4 mile overhead for the RI 401 exit does not have an old exit number tab and doesn't include RI 2.

Image of new overhead ramp sign with new exit number and old exit number tab for RI 401 West to RI 2 I-95 North exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The ramp sign for the RI 401 exit does have an old exit number tab and includes both RI 2 and I-95 shields.

Image of new gore sign with new exit number and old exit number tab at RI 104 West exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The mile marker confirms that this last gore sign on RI 4 North has the correct exit number.

RI 403

Image of new 1-mile advance sign for West Davisville Road exit with new exit number on RI 403 West in Kingsdale

RIDOT installed new exit signs with exit numbers, this the 1-mile advance for the West Davisville Road exit, now numbered Exit 2.

Image of new 1/2 mile advance sign for West Davisville Road exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

The new 1/2 Mile advance sign with the same text.

Image of new exit number tab on top of existing overhead ramp sign for West Davisville Road exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

For the overhead ramp sign, a new exit number tab was placed on top of the existing sign.

Image of new exit number gore sign for West Davisville Road exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

The new Exit 2 gore sign, now no longer hidden behind the previous version (see photo below).

Image of new exit number tab on top of existing 1/2 mile advance sign for US 1 exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

The 1/2 mile advance sign for the US 1 / Davisville Road exit is now redundant since a new tab was placed on the old sign which had exit in its text.

Image of auxiliary sign with new exit number for Davisville Road exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

This advance sign could have taken advantage of the new exit number and said Exit 3 instead of Davisville Road.

Image of existing overhead signs with new exit number tab for US 1/Davisville Road exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

Again, a new exit number 3 tab was placed on the existing overhead signs at the exit ramp to US 1 /Davisville Road.

Image of new exit number gore sign at US 1/Davisville Road exit on RI 403 East in Davisville

The new exit number 3 gore sign and new overhead signage showing a split into Exit 3A (US 1) and Exit 3B (Davisville Road).

Image showing a closer view of new exit signage at split of ramps to US 1 and Davisville Road with new exit numbers on RI 403 East in Davisville

A closer view of gore sign at the split of the ramps for US 1 and Davisville Road eastbound, the last exit. Turning around...

Image of overhead 1/2 mile advance sign with new exit number tab for To US 1 exit on RI 403 West in Davisville

The first exit sign westbound is the 1/2 mile advance for the TO US 1 / Post Road exit, a new Exit 3 tab placed on the existing sign.

Image of existing overhead ramp sign with new exit number tab for To US 1 exit on RI 403 West in Davisville

Likewise for the overhead ramps sign, a new Exit 3 tab sits on top of the existing sign.

Image of new exit number gore sign for the To US 1 exit on RI 403 West in Davisville

The new Exit 3 gore sign is also no longer hidden behind the old sign as it was in early December. This is the last numbered exit westbound.

Image of new sign, without exit number for RI 4 exit at end of RI 403 West

The exit signs for RI 4 were not given numbers, this being a new sign for the RI 4 exit.

Image of overhead ramp signs at end of RI 403 West at RI 4, no RI 4 shield on southbound exit sign

The existing signs at the RI 4 ramp split still are missing a shield for the RI 4 exit.


Earlier Photos taken in December 2018:

On December 10, 2018, RIDOT started placing new exit numbers, and in some cases, new signs, along RI 4 and RI 78, and adding exit numbers to RI 403 and the Airport Connector. These photos were taken early in the project on December 14:

RI 4

Image of new advisory sign for RI 4 exit renumbering at beginning of RI 4 South at I-95

Seen through glare is one of 2 advisory signs informing drivers of the upcoming exit number change, this southbound after the I-95 ramp.

Image of new sign posts placed for RI 2 exit with new exit number on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

Sign posts have been placed for a new exit sign for the RI 2 South exit, new Exit 5.

Image of new Exit 5 gore sign with old exit number tab sitting begin to be removed Exit 6 sign on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The new Exit 5 gore sign for RI 2 South with Old Exit 6 tab sits behind the old Exit 6 sign waiting for the rest of the new signs to be installed.

Image of new sign posts for RI 102 exit with new exit number on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

New sign posts await a new Exit 4 1-Mile advance sign for RI 102 on RI 4 South.

Image of sign posts for new 1./2 mile advance sign with new exit numbers for RI 102 exit on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

Another set of support posts await a new numbered (3A/B) 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 102 on RI 4 South.

The sign contractor (Liddell Bros.) at work at the exit ramp to RI 102 North.

Image of new Exit 3B gore sign sitting behind current Exit 5B sign awaiting removal on RI 4 South at RI 102 exit

Another new gore sign with new number sitting behind former exit number sign to be removed when the remainder of the new exit signs for RI 102 are put up.

Image of new sign posts for RI 102 South exit ramp sign with new Exit 3B number on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

New sign posts await new Exit 3B ramp sign at RI 102 South exit off of RI 4 South.

Image of new Exit 3A gore sign sitting behind old Exit 5A sign at ramp to RI 102 South on RI 4 South in East Greenwich

The new gore sign for Exit 3B has also been installed behind the Exit 5B sign awaiting removal when all the RI 102 exit signs are put up. This is the last exit on RI 4 South. Turning around and heading back north, another advisory sign:

Image of newly placed advisory sign for exit number changes on RI 4 North after Oak Hill Road

Another exit renumbering advisory sign at the start of the freeway portion at mile 2.

Image of sign posts for future 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

Newly installed support post await new Exit 3 sign for RI 102 exit in RI 4 North.

Image of new Exit 3 gore sign with old exit 5 tab behind to be removed Exit 5 gore sign for RI 102 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

Though not completely visible, the new Exit 3 gore sign, with Old Exit 5 tab, is behind the soon to be removed exit sign for RI 102.

Image of existing 1 Mile advance sign for RI 2 exit to be changed under exit renumbering contract on RI 4 North

Contractors had not gotten around to placing new exit sign posts for this RI 2 1-Mile Advance sign on RI 4 North.

Image of new exit gore sign with old exit tab for RI 2 exit behind to be removed Exit 6 sign on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

New Exit 5 gore sign with Old Exit 6 tab hidden behind Exit 6 sign to be removed when the rest of the RI 2 exit signs are updated. The RI 403 sign in the background will not be changed due to the exit number not changing.

Image of RI 403 overhead exit sign that will not be changed as part of RI 4 exit renumbering contract

This overhead will not change either, more on RI 403 below.

Image of new support posts for future new exit number sign for RI 401 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

New support posts up for future 1-Mile Advance sign for RI 401 exit which will now be Exits 9A-B.

Image of support posts up for future 1/2 mile advance sign with new exit number for RI 401 exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

New posts also up for the 1/2 Mile Advance sign.

Image of new Exit 9A gore sign up behind soon to be removed Exit 8A sign for RI 401 East exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

The Exit 9A gore sign with Old Exit 8A tab currently hidden by the soon to be removed Exit 8 gore sign for the RI 401 East exit northbound.

Image of newly placed Exit 9B gore sign with Old Exit 8B tab hidden behind existing Exit 8B sign for RI 401 West exit on RI 4 North in East Greenwich

Similar scene with the new Exit 9B sign, hidden behind Exit 8B until all the new signs for the RI 401 exit are put up.

RI 403

As part of the same renumbering contract, RIDOT is putting up new exit numbers for the 4-mile RI 403 expressway, 2 new numbers heading east, and 1 west:

Starting eastbound, new exit signs will be going up.

Image of newly placed support posts for Exit 2 on RI 403 East in East Greenwich

New support posts had been placed for new 1-Mile Advance sign for West Davisville Road exit, to be numbered 2, on RI 403 East.

Image of existing overhead exit ramp sign for West Davisville Rd, soon to be Exit 2, on RI 403 East in East Greenwich

Presumably an Exit 2 tab will be placed on top the overhead sign in this location (there is no Exit 2 westbound).

Image of newly installed Exit 2 gore sign behind to be removed old exit sign at W. Davisville Rd exit on RI 403 East in Greenwich

The new Exit 2 gore sign is hidden behind the old sign, soon to be removed when the new exit signs go up eastbound.

Image of existing 1/2 mile advance sign for US 1 exit on RI 403 in East Greenwich

No posts for the 1/2 mile advance sign for the US 1 exit, at least yet, or the sign will remain with a new Exit 3 A/B tab.

Image of newly placed Exit 3 gore sign hidden behind old exit sign for US 1 exit on RI 403 East in East Greenwich

A new thin Exit 3 gore sign stands behind the old, soon to be removed exit sign at the beginning of the ramp to the US 1/Davisville Road exit.

Image of closeup of new Exit 3A and 3B gore signs at US 1 exit on RI 403 East in East Greenwich

The old gore sign mostly hides the new Exits 3A/3B sign at the ramp split for US 1 and Davisville Road. This is the last exit eastbound on RI 403. Turning around and heading west:

Image of overhead ramp sign for US 1 exit, soon to receive Exit 3 tab, on RI 403 West in East Greenwich

Presumably this overhead sign will get a Exit 3 tab in the near future.

Image of new Exit 3 gore sign hidden behind existing exit sign for US 1 exit on RI 403 West in East Greenwich

The new Exit 3 gore sign is currently hidden by the old Exit sign until all the US 1 exit signage is updated. This is the only exit westbound.

I hope to return early in the New Year to see all the new signage and exit numbers up along Routes 4, 72, 403 and the Airport Connector.

RIDOT says they are working on the timetable to renumber the exits on I-95, I-195, RI 10, RI 24 and RI 37.

Images of the new exit numbers on I-295 and RI 99 (December 2017):

Photos of each of the exits taken on December 11, 2017 starting on I-295 at the Massachusetts border and moving south, just like the project. Signs may be from either direction of the highway:

New Exit 22/Old Exit 11:

Image of RI 114 1-Mile Advance sign just across Mass. border on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number

The first, 1-Mile advance, sign is just over the Massachusetts border. The yellow old exit tab is above the revised exit number tab, which some sign engineers have expressed concern due to extra wind loading.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 114 exit on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance sign with a similar set up.

Image of exit numbering project advisory sign on I-295 South in Cumberland, RI

Before the exit there is an advisory sign about the exit renumbering project. How long after the project is finished will the sign be taken down?

Image of RI 114 overhead exit sign on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number

For the exit itself, RIDOT uses cantilever overhead signage, and places the old exit number tab along the sign support.

Image of new gore sign for RI 114 exit on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number and temporary yellow old exit number tab

The exit gore sign resembles that in the plan above with the yellow old exit tab below, somewhat obscured by the reflector sign at the gore itself.

Image of overhead 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 114 exit on I-295 North in Cumberland with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance sign northbound is overhead instead of ground mounted so it receives the old exit tab on the sign support.

Image of overhead sign for RI 114 exit ramp on I-295 North in Cumberland with new exit number

The final new exit number sign heading into Massachusetts.

New Exit 20/Old Exit 10:

Image of 1-Mile advance sign for RI 122 exit on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number

The one mile advance sign for the next exit, RI 122.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 122 exit on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance heading down hill toward the Blackstone River bridge.

Image of overhead sign for RI 122 exit ramp on I-295 South in Cumberland with new exit number

The overhead exit ramp sign just prior to the bridge.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 122 exit on I-295 North in Cumberland with new exit number

The 1/2 mile sign the opposite direction.

Image of blue service sign for RI 122 exit on I-295 North in Cumberland with new exit numbers

The project also included changing the exit numbers on the blue services signs.

Image of overhead exit sign for RI 122 off-ramp on I-295 North in Cumberland with new exit number

The exit ramp sign with the yellow old exit tab on the cantilever sign support.

New Exit 18/Old Exit 9:

Image of 1-mile advance sign for RI 146 exit on I-295 South in Lincoln with new exit number

The 1-Mile advance sign is the only ground mounted sign heading south on I-295.

Image of overhead 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 146 exits on I-295 South in Lincoln with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance overhead sign has the old exit tab on the cantilever support. This is the first exit southbound with two off-ramps.

Image of overhead signs at RI 146 exits on I-295 South in Lincoln with new exit numbers

The overhead gantry holds the exit signs with the Old exit tab on the right support, and possibly hard to spot.

Image of new gore sign at off-ramp for RI 146 North from I-295 North in Lincoln with new exit number

The new gore sign at the RI 146 North ramp, the new and old exit numbers continue the pattern of the new numbers being twice the old ones.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 146 exits on I-295 North in Lincoln with new exit number

The 1/2 mile sign northbound is ground-mounted.

Image of brown attractions guide sign with new exit number prior to RI 146 exit on I-295 North in Lincoln

The existing brown attractions guide sign for Twin River Casino got a new pasted number that now lacks a space between Exit and the number.

 Image of overhead ramp signs for RI 146 exits from I-295 North in Lincoln with new exit numbers

The northbound ramp signage is similar to that southbound.

New Exit 15/Old Exit 8:

Image of 1-Mile advance sign for RI 7 exits on I-295 South in North Smithfield with new exit number

The one-mile advance sign heading south, the streak of old x 2= new is over.

Image of overhead exit sign for RI 7 North on I-295 South in North Smithfield with new exit number

This bridge-mounted exit sign for RI 7 South does not have a corresponding old exit number sign.

Image of 1-mile advance sign for RI 7 exits on I-295 North in North Smithfield with new exit number

The 1-Mile Advance sign heading northbound (solar glare not a problem in this direction).

Image of auxiliary sign for RI 7 exit on I-295 North in North Smithfield with new exit number

Exit numbers also change on the auxiliary signs, in this case for the RI 7 North exit.

Image of overhead signs for RI 7 exits on I-295 North in North Smithfield with new exit numbers

These overhead signs have the yellow old exit tab on the right support.

Image of overhead sign for RI 7 North exit ramp on I-295 North in North Smithfield with new exit number

Same case here with this bridge-mounted sign, no old exit number sign, though is one on gore sign in distance.

New Exit 12/Old Exit 7:

Image of 1-mile advance sign for US 44 exit on I-295 South in Smithfield with new exit number

The 1-Mile advance sign for the US 44 exit southbound, yellow old exit number tab on top.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for US 44 exit on I-295 South in Smithfield with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance sign at the start of the long downhill run to the exit.

Image of auxiliary sign for US 44 exit on I-295 North in Smithfield now with new exit number

Blue services sign heading northbound with changed number for the US 44 exit.

Image of overhead signs for US 44 exit ramps on I-295 North in Smithfield with new exit numbers

The exit numbers were changed, the yellow old exit number sign put up, but the damaged sign not fixed approaching the US 44 ramps.

New Exit 9/Old Exit 6

Image of 1-Mile advance overhead sign on I-295 North in Johnston with new exit number

The 1-Mile advance sign northbound is at the ramp for the previous exit. This is the only 1 mile sign without an accompanying old exit number tab.

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for US 6 exit on I-295 South in Johnston, RI with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance southbound listing that there are 3 suffixed ramps for this exit (though only A and C southbound).

Image of new exit gore sign for US 6 exits on I-295 South in Johnston, RI with new exit number

Gore sign at the ramp to US 6 West. As the numbers show, US 6 will no longer be Exit 6 on I-295.

Image of overhead exit sign for US 6 East on C/D ramp from I-295 South in Johnston, RI with new exit number

The other exit southbound is now 9C with the former exit number on the support post.

Image of auxiliary signage for US 6 exit on I-295 North in Johnston, RI with new exit numbers

Heading north there are 3 exit ramps for the US 6 exit, the middle is actually for I-295 South.

Image of overhead exit ramp sign for US 6 exit on I-295 North in Johnston, RI with new exit number

The C/D ramp sign heading north does not include the list of suffixed exits A-B-C.

Image of overhead sign for I-295 South exit on C/D Ramp for US 6 on I-295 North in Johnston, RI with new exit number

The I-295 exit is now 9B. Schools had been let out, hence the buses on the C/D ramp.

Image of overhead exit sign for US 6 West along C/D ramp from I-295 North in Johnston, RI with new exit number

The new number and signage at the US 6 West exit on I-295 North.

New Exit 7/Old Exit 5:

Image of 1-Mile advance sign for RI Technology Center exit on I-295 South in Johnston, RI with new exit number

The 1-Mile advance for the RI Resource Recovery Industrial Park (RIRRIP?). Notice the old exit tab is on tab of the Exit 7 tab and not on the sign support.

Image of overhead 1/2 mile advance sign for RI Industrial Park exit on I-295 South in Cranston, RI, with new exit number

Same case for the next (extra large) 1/2 Mile advance sign.

Image of overhead exit signs for RI Industrial Park and RI 14 on I-295 South in Cranston with new exit numbers

As was the case with North I-295, the 1-Mile advance sign at the exit ramp for Exit 7 does not feature an old exit number tab.

Image of 1-Mile advance sign for RI Industrial Park exit on I-295 North in Cranston, RI with new exit number

The 1-Mile Advance sign northbound also features the old exit number tab at the top of the sign.

New Exit 6/Old Exit 4:

Image of 1-Mile advance sign for RI 14 exit on I-295 North in Warwick with new exit number

The 1-Mile advance sign heading northbound with the old exit tab on top of a ground-level sign.

Image of overhead 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 14 exit on I-295 North in Warwick with new exit number

Here the yellow old exit number tab is back on the sign support post.

Exit 3 did not need to be changed. RIDOT did not place, like some other states have, a confusing sign saying new Exit 3 is old Exit 3:

Image of overhead signage for RI 37 exits on I-295 North in Warwick with same exit numbers

New Exit 1B/Old Exit 2:

Image of 1/2 mile advance sign for RI 2 South exit on I-295 South in Warwick with new exit number

The 1/2 mile advance sign. This and old Exit 1 are the only standalone exits that get new suffixed numbers. This is not the end of the album, despite the truck message.

The overhead has signs for the last two exits. It appears that Rhode Island will not be using Exit 0 in that Exit 1, now 1A is south of the Mile 1 marker.

New Exit 1A/Old Exit 1:

RI 99

As part of the I-295 Exit Renumbering Project, RIDOT also placed an exit number on the 1 previously unnumbered exit on the highway. The new number, you probably guessed, is 1. Here is the signage on RI 99 North:

Connecticut

The first Massachusetts exit sign with a milepost based number was put up on I-395 in February 2016. It was for a Connecticut exit though. After that state completed changing all of its numbers along I-395, a patch was put over the 1 mile sign southbound across the Massachusetts border changing the number from 100 to 53. This may be now the only one for a long time, given MassDOT's reluctance to start their planned exit number conversion project:

As for signage in Connecticut along I-395. Here's the first milepost exit sign crossing into that state southbound from Massachusetts for the same exit as above:

As the photos above show, only the first advance sign and the exit and gore sign get an additional tab indicating the old exit number. These will be left up for at least 2 years. Here are examples of other newly numbered exit signs on I-395 heading further south:
