The highway browser has MA 286 as turning north up "Toll Road" to end at the main interchange for I-95 exit 60. Per signage in the field, it continues west along the street it was on coming out of NH (sources disagree on the name) and Main Street to end at the lone onramp to southbound I-95.

If my description is unclear... signage in the field matches the route as currently marked on OSM and Google.

Here's what I think is going on here: it was never intended that MA 286 would be routed on what Google shows as "Toll Rd". It is trying to connect up to I-95's Exit 60. And when I-95 was plotted, Exit 60's point was placed at the point where more ramps exist. I'm inclined to leave it as is. Other thoughts?

Me, I would move the MA286 point south, and the I-95 point I would either leave as is or move to halfway between the two partial interchanges.

FWIW, MassDOT's Road Inventory shape file shows the scenario as Anthony describes, continuing west along Forrest St to High St to Main St, then along Main St to I-95 with the actual western terminus being the west end of the overpass over I-95.
