The Maine Turnpike is part of the I-95 Interstate System, but it is apart from it as well. I say keep it separate. That's Just It 06:06, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

I'd say expand the article -- explain its history, explain who runs it -- and keep it separate. SterlingNorth 16:03, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

(and the article I was referring to above is the Maine Turnpike article) SterlingNorth 16:04, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

I used to work for the Maine Turnpike. It is not State owned like that of I-295 / I-95. Therefore, showing respect it should be considered its own entity. I also agree the history should be added. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 171.159.192.10 (talk • contribs) 18:20, 16 September 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Using Mass. shields on the Maine routes?

I noticed that shields for Massachusetts state routes are getting added to the exit box for interchanges with Maine routes. Are the two shield designs close enough that it's a fair substitution? It seems like the borders may be slightly different. —C.Fred (talk) 04:08, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

I agree it's a stupid thing to do, but I didn't see any shields that were specifically for Maine, and the first shield I found for a Maine State Highway was from Massachusetts. DanTD 18:01, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Exit 57 county

I saw an editor changed the county for Exit 57, so I pulled up Google Earth to verify. It shows the highway midline and northbound exit ramp in Aroostook County, while the southbound entrance ramp starts in Penobscot. —C.Fred (talk) 00:30, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
