Talk:Interstate 5
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Somebody removed I-105 in California from the list of spurs. I put it back because even though plans to build the connection between I-5 and I-105 never materialized, it belongs in the list and it should be discussed here. If they didn't want I-105 to be a spur, the powers-that-be would either decommission it or give it another number. -- Gpietsch 00:05 Sep 22, 2002 (UTC)
- And of course the 105 does intersect the 405, which is itself a spur of the 5. Dontcha just love LA freeways? --Brion

- There's prior art in New Jersey. I-78 does not intersect any of its spurs, and I-195 did not intersect I-95 until a section of the New Jersey Turnpike was redesignated as I-95 in 1982! -- Gpietsch 22:10 Sep 22, 2002 (UTC)

- Yes, this is old news, but just so there's no confusion: since I-105 connects between TWO I-5 spur routes (I-405 in the west, and I-605 in the east), it is indeed a spur route of I-5. Spurs of spurs are not that uncommon: San Francisco has I-380, which only intersects one I-80 spur (the 280.. and US-101), yet still is a spur of I-80 by extension. Weirder: since I-80 technically only begins AFTER the South Embarcadero Freeway ends before it would meet up with the road signed as "I-80" (though even then, it technically isn't Interstate grade, and there's some controversy as to whether or not it's "I-80" at that point), and the City of San Francisco has kinda broken the routing with recent construction in Mission Bay, I-280 can be said to never touch Interstate 80. It's not just Los Angeles freeways that are weird. - Feedle 05:08, 5 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Ok forgive me if I'm wrong, but would'nt be nice to like include some "tips for travellers" that aren't some published paid for stuff.??
I use 5 to go to Portland and Seattle and Canada. I could offer some tips.

I think it would be helpful to add a link to Randy Woodfield, the I-5 Killer; the most relevant place seems to be under Notes. Does this seem reasonable? Are there other social and/or historical I-5 associations that we could include? - Wyvern 02:53, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Techincally, alot of those junctions are spurs (or thats my understanding) (all the x05's are spurs) dunno if it would be making it worse to redo those sections though...
[edit] Cleanup tag
I changed the cleanup tag for this article, so that the wikiproject can work on this and not have to worry about other people trying to fix this article without the knowledge. Of course, they are still welcome to try, but this is a U.S. Interstate Highway article, so, um, yeah. --Geopgeop 09:27, 1 November 2005 (UTC) (from the CA Hwy WikiProject, keep up the good work)

- A California exit list can be found off the Calnexus (Caltrans) site. A Washington list can be found off their DOT site too. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 23:07, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
The exit numbers dont stay the same, each state has its own exit numbers based on how many miles they are from the southern most part of the state, this is for north and southbound. --Logsta 03:18, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
There is a northbound exit ~300. It doesn't go directly to the Morrison Bridge or Belmont St., but it puts you in the same area and generally provides an equivalent to southbound 300B. Also, I think the 299As are switched and ODOT does not number exits for highway ends. Jason McHuff 10:16, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
