Sounds like a bug in the rendering.


However, I wouldn't necessarily oppose a separate network tag in this 
case, since it's clearly not part of the Interstate Highway System. (The 
same would apply to business Interstates.)

Michigan has some 'emergency' Interstates that are essentially detours, 
but are permanently signed:

There's also an I-278 Truck in New York City that avoids a piece of the 
Grand Central Parkway that's closed to large trucks:
