Doesn't I-238 intersect with I-880 and I-580? Don't those count as intersections with interstates (or do spurs and loops not count in that section)? -- Ke4roh 14:12, 21 Mar 2004 (UTC)
Has anyone proposed renumbering it I-480 now that the Embarcadero Freeway is gone? Or is there a California State Route 480 now? Bayberrylane 02:38, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Routebox
Despite the fact that it is a unique primary Interstate highway, shouldn't the routebox used be routeboxca2 instead of routeboxus? After all, the route never leaves the state, and that state being California in fact. I will change it to routeboxca2 if no one minds, and may make a stronger link to California State Route 238 (not redirect, I won't do that), as they are one and the same in the eyes of the California Legislature. --Geopgeop 07:01, 25 October 2005 (UTC)
- In spite of the fact that it is a glorified state highway, it is officially a primary Interstate highway... and that's exactly what the routebox template is for. So I think people will mind. :-) Also, the directional parameters are for how the highway is signed, presuming that it is directionally signed. Northwest/southeast may not be an option (see Interstate 24 for a prime example). --Rob 14:27, 25 October 2005 (UTC)

- "Also, the directional parameters are for how the highway is signed, presuming that it is directionally signed." It's officially signed north-south, with I-880 being the north end (consistent with CA 238 through Hayward, Union City and Fremont). However, since I-580 is signed east-west, and one makes a straight left exit to get onto I-238 (I-580 turns to the right), the directional designation is confusing and probably should be eliminatd. I don't believe it appears on the guide signs, just on a reassurance marker as one passes the on-ramp from I-580 east. 71.131.241.221 18:36, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
It is officially an auxiliary route. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 01:03, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "The Highway That Doesn't Exist"
I lived in this area for years and local people have been referring to I-238 as that for as log as I can remember. I added the note back in. --Darth Borehd 16:41, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I-238 map
The current map is a placeholder, while accurate, I will redo it with a more accurate outline of the bay area. Stratosphere (T/C) 05:38, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
- Fixed. Stratosphere (T/C) 04:26, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
