Massachusetts is about to embark on a project to renumber all of their exits per federal mandate. The consensus is that the only way they can take "exit 17"[1] from us is by lasering it out of our brains. I know people who are planning a guerilla renumbering campaign for this sign after it is harmonized.

- dsfyu404ed 7y agoBack when Connecticut re-numbered the highways they struck a deal where they'd re-number the highways as the signs were replaced to save money. Massachusetts being Massachusetts they'll inevitably find a way to replace all the signs three or four times to maximize the number of favors they can do for the well connected people in the relevant industries.
