Miniature BGS posted on the back of traffic light beams on Eager Rd. where it meets Brentwood Blvd. Presumably, with the Hwy 40 project, the interchange will change enough that these will obsolesce. | 2006-06-04 |

A nice shot of the buttons on these overheads that once hung over Hanley Rd. at 40. | 2007-02-14 |

Relatively new I-64 Missouri shield paired with a significantly older US 40 shield at the onramp from Berthold Ave. Link to Google map. The ramp is mostly used by traffic entering the highway from McCausland Ave. | 2007-10-09 |

Hastily posted Detour I-64 West shield on Clark between 9th and 10th Streets. | 2007-11-17 |

A view of the intersection of Hampton and Oakland, footsteps south of the Hampton interchange with 40. The overheads are pretty old and I expect them to come down during the rebuilding of the highway. Note the layout: traffic entering 40 eastbound takes the ramp crammed between Oakland and the offramp from 40 for southbound Hampton. The extremely tight curve of the offramp means it's probably bound for a makeover during 2009. | 2007-11-17 |

Close-up of a button BGS over Hampton as it passes over 40 and enters Forest Park. | 2007-11-17 |

Button overhead at the onramp to 40 from Brentwood Blvd. The buttons have held up well, it appears. | 2007-12-22 |

|
Button-copy diagrammatical sign at the Hanley Rd exit from 64/40. The sign shows Eager Rd, which acts as a frontage road in this area, splitting from the offramp. | 2006-02-05 |

Now-familiar "CLOSED" banner posted over old 40 onramp signage. This photo was deliberately overexposed for effect. In Brentwood. | 2007-12-22 |

Westbound on 40 at Clayton/Skinker/McCausland, looking up the ramp toward Clayton Rd. | 2007-12-26 |
|
|
Entering the big curve westbound on 40 between the Clayton/Skinker ramp and the McCausland ramp. Coming the other way, eastbound, it's kind of fun (but dumb) to speed through this sweeping downhill curve. | 2007-12-26 |
|
|
Another shot from 40 looking up toward the McCausland exit. Get used to the sight of traffic, too. | 2007-12-26 |
