At the current time a bunch of changes are happening with the exit numbers
in NYC:
I-95: the mile-based up to exit 8 and then sequential system is becoming
fully sequential
I-278: 44 has become 47, 45 to 48, and 46 to 49; the exits east of 49 still
aren't numbered; they may be renumbering in Queens too
I-295: 8 became 9, 10 was added (I-695), and 9 became 11 - was the CIP exit
numbered as 8? Or was it a larger scale renumbering, with 6B becoming 7?
I-678: Currently exit 16 is the last exit, and is northbound only (?). But
recent signage ( http://plover.net/~green/imgnew/020203/hrp-nb-ex19w.jpg )
on the ramp from I-678 north to I-95 south and I-278 west calls the Bruckner
Interchange exit 19, and so exits 17 and 18 will be numbered.
I-495: exits 14, 15, and 16 were added recently
Also many parkways (such as the Saw Mill River) just received exit numbers a
couple years ago.

"Boston really isn't high on the importance scale for numbered routes
because we don't see the need to waste taxpayer money on it. Thru traffic
uses highways, not numbered surface routes. This isn't the 1950s." - some
