Westbound reassurance shields. US 219 is better signed in this triplex than US 220 is in its run with I-68/US 40. I-68/US 40/US 219 passes one interchange (for MD 495, Grantsville) before reaching the western split.
Timothy Reichard 3/8/03
In the middle of the I-68/US 40/US 219 triplex, one state route interchanges. MD 495 leads north to Grantsville and Alternate US 40 (the pre-freeway US 40/US 219 duplex).
Dan Moraseski 8/31/02
Eight miles to the west, both US 40 and US 219 leave the freeway. Triplexes usually have one route split off, leaving a duplex, which later splits. I-68/US 40/US 219 is one of the rare triplexes were two routes split at the same interchange.
Dan Moraseski 8/31/02
US 40 exits first at the cloverleaf interchange western split. US 40 goes back to the old alignment that I-68 bypasses and then heads northwest into Pennsylvania.
Dan Moraseski 8/31/02
US 219 splits to the south toward Oakland and West Virginia.

At the western split, US 40 east enters the interchange from the north and US 219 south comes out on the south side.
