Notes

• The West Virginia Turnpike is also signed as I-77 for its entire length.

• I-77 in Charlotte is also known as the Bill Lee Freeway.

• The junction between I-77 and I-85 in Charlotte is a rather odd configuration. When I-77 crosses over I-85, the northbound lanes are to the west of the southbound lanes. The lanes return to their proper positions north and south of this interchange.

• When I-77 and I-81 merge in Virginia, you are going both north and south on a wrong-way multiplex.

• There were originally plans to extend I-77 as far north as Detroit (and possibly into Canada!), along the Ohio Turnpike, I-75 and I-94. Had this extension taken place, the spur into Cleveland would have been renamed I-177.
