  At exit 218 is the northern terminus of the new I-73 segment which follows the last segment of I-74 just to end (contrary to the Interstate rules!) just north of the little town of Emery. No where near a coast of another Interstate. This is a handy shortcut to I-85 southbound if you happen to be going that way.
  At exit 219 you make the big merge with I-85 – probably the busiest truck route in the U.S.A. I-40 and I-85 share the same roadbed from here to just before Durham. And I-40 now will be using the I-85 exit numbers. Greensboro is full of historic sites (and about everything else, of course). If you want to read more about it, go to CarolinaNow.
