OK.  So There is clearly no agreement on the abbreviation of road types 
(Street, Way, etc).  So what about these specific exceptions.  I will 
assume silence means agreement :)

Rather than "United Stated Highway 29 Frontage Road" just "U.S. 29 
Frontage Road" or maybe "US 29 Frontage Road". 
Why.  Because no will say the formal out load.

Rather than "Interstate 95 Frontage Road", just "I-95 Frontage Road". 
Why?  Even though some will say the formal, most just say the letter I.
