ABOUT THIS SITE |
Welcome to NHHighway.com. I started this site in 2007 to bring more information about the roads and highways of the Granite State. Though New Hampshire is a small state, it has a lot of interesting stretches of road. This site explores the 5 Interstate Highways, 3 Turnpikes, 6 US Routes and over 100 state routes that make up the highway system of New Hampshire. I have enjoyed puting this site together and I've learned a lot about this state I call home. A lot of information here was compiled by either reasearch, both online and the old fashioned way, or site visits, which to me is the most fun. I have not driven all the routes in here, but I have driven most, including all of the grade seperated highways in the state. |

NOTE ABOUT THE NEW HAMPSHIRE & EVERETT TURNPIKES |
In this site I have included shields for the New Hampshire Turnpike on the guide signs. I feel that, as the state's first highway, it should be referred to and signed as such on the actual road, much like it is on the Everett (see below) and Spaulding Turnpikes. Even though every attempt was made to make the signs as realistic as possible, I chose to include the shields even though they are no longer is use. The turnpike also carries the designation of Blue Star Turnpike. My recommendation to the State of New Hampshire would be to bring back the NH Turnpike shield and at both termini of the turnpike include signs that say "Welcome to the New Hampshire Turnpike: A Blue Star Memorial Highway". As for the Everett Turnpike, the state also neglects to sign the turnpike north of the I-93/I-293 Interchange in Hooksett. I believe the road should be signed as the Everett Turnpike up to Route 9 (Exit 14) in Concord. As with the New Hampshire Turnpike, I have included shields for the Everett Turnpike up to the northern terminus in Concord. |
