	I-95 Exit 109: a double trumpet connects the northern end of the Maine Turnpike to Maine's longest quadruplex. The extra green space on the overhead sign is in case MDOT wanted to add a couple more routes to the multiplex. ;P Well, seriously, it used to be signed "TO [3]" until ME-3 was rerouted directly to I-95 at exit 113 in late 2004.
	The north end of the double trumpet & the north end of the Turnpike. A toll booth once stood where these BGSes are now. Hella weave, dude. It's worth noting that ME-11 and ME-100 are both north/south routes.
	Headed west on Western Ave in Augusta at the I-95 interchange. Will be bearing right & looping back onto the turnpike here shortly. Ironically I had to make this pic a tad more blurry to remove a horizontal banding artifact my camera makes under certain lighting conditions.
	Waaauuugh gettin' dizzy! Looping off Western Ave to take the double trumpet back to the pike. There are several original turnpike interchanges left with only a yellow line dividing opposing directions of the trumpet ramps.
