Nothing special, it's just here. Well, there do appear to be a few greenouts on the left panel, as if there were a second destination listed, and then the word "EXIT" behind "½ MILE". I don't see any evidence of a possible extension past the trumpet interchange here, so my best guess is this said "Pittsburgh." Why take that away?

The next three photos, courtesy Doug Kerr, are from US 20 just before the northern end of I-79, which is why NB I-79 is only signed TO 12TH St. The interchange, as far as I can tell, is like a stack minus the WB-SB and SB-EB movements. Traffic trying to do both of those ends up using the U-turn ramp marked as SOUTH 79 and EAST 20. Due to the width of US 20 (two through lanes, one lane each added from the NB-WB and SB-WB ramps), SB-EB traffic has a tough time getting over, and WB-SB traffic must face similar problems once they've taken the U-turn.


US 20 WB approaching that U-turn. You can see how wide the roadway is.


US 20 EB at the two I-79 ramps. The last little bit of I-79 is crossing US 20 in the background, on its way to PA 5.
