For the Hallam interchange for US 30, the point label is FryRd.  However, as verified by the intersection of that road and PA 462.  The road at the US 30 interchange is actually Kreutz Creek Rd as it heads to the north from PA 462.  Freysville Rd (presumably what FryRd is for) heads south from that intersection.

The Wrightsville interchange has its own oddity with Cool Springs Rd being the road name at US 30 while N 9th St takes over before it reaches PA 462 to the south due to entering Wrightsville itself.  Both have the same point for Cool Springs Rd so I believe they could be left alone.

The label should be changed in US30.
IMO, it should be changed in PA462 too for consistency, as that's the more major road leading to the interchange.
So then -- to call it KreCreRd, or KreCrkRd? Hm. Looks like there's only 3 instance of "Crk" in PA point labels, with "Cre" much more widely used. KreCreRd it is.

The Wrightsville interchange has its own oddity with Cool Springs Rd being the road name at US 30 while N 9th St takes over before it reaches PA 462 to the south due to entering Wrightsville itself.  Both have the same point for Cool Springs Rd so I believe they could be left alone.
US30 should still have its point label changed: As "Cool" has 4 or fewer letters, the entire word should be used. (If it were named Cooler Springs Road, then CooSprRd would be appropriate.)
If 9thSt is what actually intersects PA462, then better off going with that point label there.
