A few blocks later, we’ll enter the city of Central Falls.

Location: Broad St and Jenks Ave, Central Falls

Central Falls (and Pawtucket and East Providence) have a large Hispanic population so it’s common to see bilingual photo camera signs.

Location: Broad St and Chestnut St, Central Falls

In downtown Central Falls, stay on RI 114 for Interstate 95.

Reassurance shield after Cross Street.

Location: Broad St and Nickerson St, Pawtucket

A couple blocks later, we’ll enter Pawtucket.

Location: Broad St and Exchange St, Pawtucket

We’re not actually on RI 15 yet, but we’re about to approach it at the light as shit gets crazy.

Location: Broad St and Exchange St, Pawtucket

Turn right for RI 15 west and left for RI 15 east/RI 114 south. Traffic from RI 114 north, which takes a distinct routing through Pawtucket, approaches from straight ahead.

Location: Exchange St and Broad St, Pawtucket

No signage after the turn – we’re now on RI 114 south/RI 15 east, with traffic in the opposing carriageway only carrying RI 15 west.

Location: Exchange St and Broadway, Pawtucket

A few blocks later, we’ll cross the Blackstone River and approach Broadway. Things get weird here – the oncoming traffic again carries RI 114 north, which turns left at the intersection to head south. We’re turning right – so turn right here for RI 114 south/RI 114 north/RI 15 east – the only instance in the country where a route runs concurrent with itself.

Location: Exchange St and Broadway, Pawtucket

This is also the way to get to I-95 south.

A block later, keep left for RI 114 south/RI 15 east to the I-95/US 1 north ramp. Keep right for RI 114 north back into downtown Pawtucket.
