Title: usaush: United States Historic US Routes
Post by: si404 on February 16, 2016, 10:53:38 am
Scope: routes signed with Historic USxx signs

Routes already mapped: see http://tm.teresco.org/devel/hb.php?sys=usaush&rg=

Issues: long banner text with dates are hard to implement, as is the historic bit

Requests: other signed routes - where are they?

Comments: over to you

Well here's something: http://www.historicus20.com/historic-route-signage.html (http://www.historicus20.com/historic-route-signage.html)
As far as I can tell from the pics there is an extant US20His in Marlborough and Becket, MA (although I have no idea of the routings).
There are also some links at the bottom that may or may not be useful.

I'm not sure whether this info is relevant or not, but I put it here for what it's worth.

Hist US 30 The Dalles should be removed: Its entire length is still US 30.
The segment that should be included is from Troutdale to I-84 exit 35 near Warrendale. In fact, I'll send this to Jim now.

Thanks for correcting my misinterpretation the description given in discussions of US30 in OR.

Collaborators - please feel free to make alterations to routes in your regions like Bickendan has done.

As usaush.csv is currently formatted, NM HistoricUS66PRE-1937SFe is what would have to go into a .list file to mark a segment as clinched. That's a mouthful. Clunky.
My preference: usaush;NM;US66;His;SFe;Santa Fe;nm.us066hissfe;
That example doesn't include the date information. Leaving it out doesn't seem to create any collisions between same-numbered same-city routes, from my quick look at the CSV. I have no problem including it, as long as it's in the city field, e.g. usaush;NM;US66;His;SFe;(PRE-1937) Santa Fe;nm.us066hissfe; or such.

I remember there was one route in TX that needed some fixes. Don't remember which one though...
Edit: I guess not. Maybe I was thrown off by tx.i040bsgle having the points in reverse order from tx.us066hisgle, or something.

and Weston, MA, New Lebanon, NY, North East, PA, Sandhills, NE...

Sadly the Ostriches haven't roamed those parts for a long time, so route discernment is difficult (the Becket, MA is a tiny former alignment segment where the turnpike diverted it - called Morse Rd).

I've also found a US6His in Provincetown, MA, with a same lack of decent and recent GMSV


I've also fixed the .csv

You've made it known that you don't believe that a route being coextensive with an existing route should preclude it from being included in any set it's qualified to be in, and I don't disagree with you in principle. But in the case of Historic US 20 (Painesville, OH) (http://tm.teresco.org/devel/hb.php?r=oh.us020hispai), the entire route is also the current routing for US 20. To me this seems unnecessary. At least a small part of Historic US 20 (Norwalk, OH) (http://tm.teresco.org/devel/hb.php?r=oh.us020hisnor) deviates from the unbannered route.

Tell that to the people who erected signs! There's loads of US20His concurrent with US20. And US6His in Provincetown doesn't even have the excuse of the road still being on the original alignment when it does it!

I guess I don't know how we know when this is substantially complete.  I doubt there's an authoritative list out there somewhere we can refer to.  I admit I've been blindly running site updates that include new usaush routes without paying much attention to what's in them (or not).

I know it's not an ideal solution, but could we call our selection authoritative and add to it as more new historic routes are "found"? I know it would count as original research in the Wikipedia sense, but do we have a problem with the US Historic roads being a little beta all the time?

Who's putting these together? Apologies if I missed an announcement, but I see IL and MO US 66 files have been created. I don't have any problem with it (I certainly wouldn't have had time to do it), but if a signed route changes that could affect things.

On the portions where the historic route overlaps an active route, are waypoints being taken from existing files? If so, should concurrencies automatically show up yet? Or can that not happen until the system is activated? I'm marked as having 0% of 66 in IL/MO, and I have a bunch of interstate/business loop portions that would count.

I did about a year ago (well for '66 it was - US20 was more recently).
Quote

Yes, though there's places where I've had to tweak things (eg add extra points if there wasn't a point where the usush route left a state route), which I didn't do with the state highways. IIRC, there's maybe 20 such points in IL/MO and perhaps 30 in total - it's hard to know exactly at the moment as the easiest ways to find out (broken concurrencies, etc) won't happen unless the system is preview/active.
Quote
If so, should concurrencies automatically show up yet? Or can that not happen until the system is activated?
Not until it's preview, so a 0% score is correct.
I guess I don't know how we know when this is substantially complete.
True, but I'm pretty sure I've got most of them, and we can always add more as people spot them or they get signed (more so the latter, as I look at various groups' sites and they tend to have pictures for every new section signed) - a quick check suggests I'm missing US20 in Termopolis, WY (which shouldn't take long to add)
Quote
I doubt there's an authoritative list out there somewhere we can refer to.
Sure, but the same is the case for various other systems - eg truck routes, several European systems, etc.
I know it's not an ideal solution, but could we call our selection authoritative and add to it as more new historic routes are "found"? I know it would count as original research in the Wikipedia sense, but do we have a problem with the US Historic roads being a little beta all the time?
I don't have a problem with this, though I skew fairly strongly towards P on Myers-Briggs (among other factors that mean similar things), and so a system that might not be fully complete, making a couple of statistics not very authoritative (eg percentage of system clinched) doesn't bother me anyway near as much as I'm sure it would bother other people.

The IA Historic US 20 that right now is confined to Dubuque County can be stretched nearly across the state to Early. Use Olde Castle Road, present 20 to the next intersection into Dyersville, and then the rest of the pre-freeway route should be easy to follow. (Or look at the Iowa DOT map archive.) I'd stick with the ca. 1960s route; the 1926-58 route from Cedar Falls to Jesup has at least two breaks in it, and the 1986-2000/2003 segment via D19 and IA 14 doesn't hold much significance IMO.

IA Historic US 6 can get an Altoona-Newton segment too (F48).

I can make the files if you want.

Again, is it signed? A single sign would be enough to please me.

I gather there are (given the cost given, 2 or 3?) signs in Atlantic http://usroute6iowa.org/node/22, so the Redfield can presumably be extended along US6 (and renamed for the larger city?) a few miles.

Oh, I completely misread your intent then. If the old routes have to be SIGNED, then the only highway in Iowa that qualifies is US 6. I thought you were looking for significant segments of bypassed road that one could follow independently, since old 20 in Dubuque County isn't signed, nor is 6 on Broadway in Council Bluffs (unless that's changed since I was last there).

I believe, but am not 100% sure, that Historic 6 has been signed all or mostly all across the state, even where it overlaps with existing 6 - there's a Historic 6 shield with 6 at the IA 48 intersection west of Atlantic. (But it could be only Cass County.) That's only happened in the last couple of years so Google Street View hasn't caught up. Polk County would be a potentially large exception because 6 is partially apart from 80, and the question becomes which route to sign, existing 6 or the really old route that went into downtown Des Moines.

I know old 6 is signed from 63/6 to Ladora (F29).

In Iowa and Illinois the route of the Lincoln Highway is signed, but not (in Iowa's case) Historic US 30.

That's a temporary sign Mr. Farr put up while he was traveling to promote his site. I e-mailed him about it. If you look closely, "Iowa" is taped onto it. There is no comprehensive signage of Historic 20 in Dubuque County, although Farr is trying to get some.

There are very well-signed segments of Historic US 40 in Dixon CA and Sacramento CA, not included in the California HistUS40 segments already in the HB, I don't know the full extent of those segments, or even if they are separate, but IIRC they are on West A Street, N Adams Street, and CA 113 in Dixon, and on 16th Street in downtown Sacramento. That Sacramento segment is currently covered by the HB as part of CA 160, but not for long (at least south of the American River) as explained in the usaca thread.

The Dixon bit goes down Porter Road, but I can't see any signs on Midway Road. I had a dummy file for Sacramento, but had forgot about it. With the recent GMSV update I've been able to work out the extent of signage to add it.

I've synced up points so that these routes intersect properly with other routes. I've not fixed NMPs.

I'm not sure how wild I am about US20His style labels in general, but I'll let that matter go for the time being...

OK:
The US66HisWea changes effectively revert a change (https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/commit/a262c7154cc919bd7f55173d66734159ecdc47b5) I made a while back. I removed the point on I-40, as there was no junction there; the point wasn't on the US66His roadway. US66His uses just the northern frontage road here, but northbound OK58Med uses the northern frontage road, and southbound OK58Med uses the southern one. Thus I-40 & OK58Med intersect at (35.536352°, -98.575079°), but I decided a different solution was in order for US66His. I went with one OK58 point (where OK58Med crosses SB, and leaves the concurrency NB), and then added the other point at N2480 for those travelers who'd passed through the area on northbound OK58Med, and would want to mark off the corresponding section of US66His as clinched.

US69: US66His -> US66His_Nar. Fine for US59, as it's the only US66His point on that route.

OK66: US66His_LkOW & US66His_LkOE -> US66His_Yuk & US66His_Okl

NE:
US20: might as well leave OldSmiSDr_E out. It's a minor one-way (https://www.google.com/maps/@42.6616924,-103.5691808,3a,16y,16.86h,89.65t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sOFc5LyUkbcvOKcOHCYjGvQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) park road, not needed for shaping. (I just recently added in SolCreRd per a request in for forum for a point in the state park; that should suffice.) As for the existing OldSmiSDr_W, that was just added in as a shaping point. Its name is not up to current labeling standards; it should probably be SmiCanDr instead.

It was needed for the intersecting route, not shaping - somewhere some time ago, I saw fit to include the park road due to signage. However I can't find it now and I'm pulling the route back and dropping it.

Si, remember when I had you switch out the Rowena Crest section of Hist US 30 for the Columbia River Gorge section a while back?
Turns out both are signed in the field! US 30 prime is also signed (or just becomes US 30H) through Rowena Crest after leaving The Dalles.
I'll upload the Rowena Crest section with my update to US 97 and the OR 99s. Since both segments of US 30H are in the Columbia River Gorge, the first segment should be renamed --
Crown Point?
Columbia River Gorge Waterfalls?
Multnomah Falls?
Troutdale-Dodson?

Not sure I follow. Road names, like ElmSt & MainSt?
Yes
Oh nice. I prefer that style too actually, and feel better about asking for it if Oscar already did so & you were happy to make the changes.
FWIW, I followed this same convention when developing cannss. EG, NS NS4 PepSt (http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=45.655972&lon=-60.875081), instead of BrasdOrDr_WhateverDirectionalOrCitySuffix...

I remember there was one other US66His label in KS. Other than that I'm not aware of anything else you changed in my regions before these recent commits.

I see US66His etc. in the CA & NM commits.

I've gone with everyone having names on existing routes, rather than USxxHis labels (some are OldUSxx or varients of, as that is what the road is named).

It's obvious what it is though. I didn't want to add 20-something points to the actual US30 file, but didn't want to play hunt-and-name them should we include the Lincoln Highway to the project.

Can you post a link to where you found the endpoints for the US20His routes in Ohio? I'm wondering how you decided to limit them to those three particular segments.
Title: Re: usaush (United States Historic US Routes)
Post by: si404 on September 11, 2017, 09:20:21 am
the end points are rather random. I basically took the existing US20 points after a sign, or where I guessed a sign might be.

However, more have been added (this recent document (http://historicus20.com/iowa.html) about getting the route really well done in IA has Bellevue, Monroeville, Norwalk, Wakeman, Elyria, Willoughby, Mentor, Painesville and North Perry have signs, so I need to extend the Painesville section at some point) or I just gave up trying to find. It doesn't help that GMSV is either too old, or that the signs are very hard to find. I haven't found too many - this one in Monroeville (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.2361633,-82.689598,3a,22.5y,281.82h,88.76t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1suPXLH2lc9ClWbF2L2nleWw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), this one in Willoughby (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.621917,-81.4495758,3a,75y,91.44h,69.7t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sPDhd_dPhTUS8awgDLUDWJg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), this one in North Perry (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.7700949,-81.1737358,3a,35.3y,65.1h,81.22t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s3IpowU-jCYj1SjPUMlyB_Q!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), and this one in Painesville (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.7128917,-81.260045,3a,40.8y,289.2h,86.67t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sL7XhWYgsak3jirTkC0VfWA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

the end points are rather random. I basically took the existing US20 points after a sign, or where I guessed a sign might be.

Then how is this any different from looking at an old map, seeing where US20 used to be routed, and calling that US20HisFoo?

I finally had a chance to GMSV US20HisEly from end to end and didn't see a single sign. Imagery was from 2013-2016.

The Monroeville sign in your link was the only one I found on US20HisNor (the imagery for the intersection shown in the article predates the unveiling).

I'm just looking for some justification for these two (US20HisPai seems safe), or a reason not to add the former alignment in Fremont (which is actually signed, albeit in a nonstandard manner (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.3464278,-83.1068985,3a,40.1y,242.53h,91.64t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sQTAu6X2gyDZFdcFbofXkaw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)).

Because it's signed as Historic US20 rather than merely the old route of it?

That said, I can't find any signs, despite GMSV being mostly recent enough to fit the June 2016 date for the supposed signage in the town.

Why isn't Norwalk safe? - as you say, GMSV is pre-unveiling of signage. The end points might need tweaking (the west end seems to be OH113, with nothing further west in Bellevue), but it's clearly signed in several places. Here's a third (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.2686721,-82.8160253,3a,27.1y,355.77h,85.36t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sQ-CM0qqHnOH0ysahPXu6iw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). Wakeman's GMSV is too early.

*Some* of the route is signed, but a large part of your file seems to be guesswork. Ohio's historic US routes don't seem to be in the same class as the well-signed examples in California or Illinois. Granted, it would be pointless to have a 2-block route for the small segment signed in Monroeville and another tiny segment near another sign in Norwalk, but keeping all of US20HisNor in a single file demands a lot more guesswork than a route should require. The endpoints are ambiguous. The phantom Elyria segment is more than ambiguous.

Would it be better to unite all of these segments into a single one, since the organization (possibly just one extremely dedicated and/or obsessive gentleman) posting the signs evidently intends to use them to promote the entire route of US20?

I didn't say I wished to include that segment, only that it was more clearly signed (as *something*) than the Norwalk section.

I'd prefer to hold off on all of the Ohio routes until signage becomes more consistent across the state. Is any other state as careless with its Historic Route signage?
Title: Re: usaush (United States Historic US Routes)

I'm somewhat puzzled by this set of routes. I've seen a fair number of "Historic US Route" X in my travels and have even driven some, so I like the idea of being able to add a few more to my list.

What I don't know are the criteria for including a Historic route? I assume it must be signed. What else? Must the route be decommissioned or have a segment relocated?

I can see why it might be necessary when a route is signed as "Historic" though a town when a bypass was created and the old route was not designated a "Business" route or replaced by a state route of the same number (WA 99 in Federal Way for instance). The idea of a Historic route having a concurrency with the same numbered route that still exists seems like an oxymoron (how can it be a historic route if it is still a current route? I can understand for the segments that deviate from the current route).

One route I know is signed but not included is Historic US395 in Riverside, CA. Are there others?

I like the idea of adding Historic routes, but there seems to be a lot of confusion about appropriate waypoints, signage, concurrencies, and which routes to include. At least with most other systems, there usually some sort of official list maintained by the state DOT.

Now that this system is in "preview," I'll probably add several routes to my list. I'm still not sure I completely understand what's being included or left out of this system, but I'll go along with whatever is in the HB.

I've seen Historic US 99E signs in Chico CA, and US 99W signs somewhere along I-5BL Orland (a poorly-signed BL that was really borderline for staying in the HB). I have a photo of one of the latter. The Chico 99E segment followed in part the decommissioned CA99 Business route through Chico, but continued south on Midway where the business route turned east on Park Ave.

Is there a more systematic way of identifying CA's generally well-signed historic US routes, other than randomly through reports on this forum?
Title: Re: usaush (United States Historic US Routes)
Post by: bejacob on September 20, 2017, 08:50:47 am
the entire route is also the current routing for US 20. To me this seems unnecessary.
Tell that to the people who erected signs! There's loads of US20His concurrent with US20. And US6His in Provincetown doesn't even have the excuse of the road still being on the original alignment when it does it!

I know I am quoting an old comment, but it helps explain my confusion with this system.

Just because some group erected "Historic Route" signs, what makes a route worth including?
Is the some sort of "official designation" by state DOTs for historic routes?
If not, who determined which routes are included?
How will we know if the route list is complete? Is there some "master" list?
Will early US "auto routes" like the Lincoln Highway https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Highway (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Highway) (which covered parts of US30, US50, and others) be included especially in places where is deviates from the existing alignment? (I know a great deal of signage exists in the Midwest on parts of this route).
What about routes that had different alignments over time?
Once usaush is done, will there be a push to do the same at a state level? (Are there even any signed historic state routes?)

I like the idea of adding historic routes, I just wonder whether enough consideration was given to the above questions. The system is already in "preview," so there is probably little chance of going back now. A little clarification might however be useful moving forward.

I'm all in favor of adding new systems. I was glad to see usanp and several state systems (CA, FL, GA) added to "preview" recently. I've still got some big gaps in places like AL, LA, and MS where state systems have not yet been developed.

This system just feels a bit slapdash especially if TM contributors are relying on "reports from the field" to make sure the route list is complete. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the effort and will be glad to add any new routes to my list file. I'm just looking for a bit of clarity on this route system. It's still somewhat confusing as to the criteria for a route to be included.

Just signed. The other stuff adds a layer of complexity as to whether a route is included or not that a driver won't easily know about. Ideally, one would only see signs on decomissioned/bypassed sections, but alas that isn't the case.

I agree, but it seems that some people want to sign existing routes as historic routes and so have done so. My favourite example for this nonsense is the US6 Historic Route in Provincetown, MA - where it's clearly a bypass (MA6A going through the town) and is current US6.

Quote

Added, though it seems to peter out at the north end.

Quote

The issue is that these routes are created or maintained by the state. In some cases they are, in others it's cities and counties (and, obviously, some are just businesses or campaigns).



US 99W signs somewhere along I-5BL(Orland -- a poorly-signed BL that was really borderline for staying in the HB).
I only found one sign on GMSV, in Willows, but added. There's also two in Williams, which is annoying as same first three-letters, so I'm going with Willows and Williams for the abbreviations
Quote
The Chico 99E segment followed in part the decommissioned CA99 Business route through Chico, but continued south on Midway where the business route turned east on Park Ave.
The late 2016 GMSV shows CA99 signs northbound on Main, but not His-99E signs either way on the old Bus-99 route, and I can't see it on Midway - this is a recent route, added in the last 10 months. I need more info to add it, though you can add it.
Quote

it seems to mostly be cities/counties signing these routes, so there's nothing really unified.



Just because some group erected "Historic Route" signs, what makes a route worth including?
How can a driver tell whether it's a state, county, city, lobby group/non-profit, or business that erected a sign? No one seems to have a problem if a state DOT is the one putting up signs (especially if has its beaurocracy Vogonishly catalogue the routes), what's the problem with signs put up by other entities if drivers can't tell the difference?

Quote
Is the some sort of "official designation" by state DOTs for historic routes?
I don't believe so. IA seems to be heading down that path, though - hence the US20 presentation to get the route designated, with Iowa DOT getting cities and counties signing the route.

Quote

the contributors - I've gone with if it's signed, it's included.

Quote
How will we know if the route list is complete? Is there some "master" list?
We won't - to some extent. But think of it more of a grab-bag, rather than a coherent and complete system, and why does it matter? The point is to map these routes (and also doing the job of documenting them), where we've discovered them, and to map our travels on them.

For gbna, SABRE, is the master list that the DfT directs people too, and most of the changes I've made in the last year or two, I've also made on the 'official' list of SABRE, therefore the master list is basically TM contributor findings (from posts on road geek forums, signage on streetview/photos, etc) - ie the same as this system.

For a lot of European systems, I've found no official list for and used wikipedia or wegenwiki, along with mapping data, to make the routes.

I appreciate the thoughtful comments.

I'm still slightly concerned about "just signed" as the sole criteria.

I discovered a few years back that a US62Bus sign placed on the Ohio side of the Ohio River was a mistake http://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=6277c09d12eb9d5b31cc221a9c0be320&topic=15733.msg2121667#msg2121667 (http://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=6277c09d12eb9d5b31cc221a9c0be320&topic=15733.msg2121667#msg2121667) and that a US62Bus did not actually exist in this area despite signage to the contrary. That may not be relevant if there is no "official" list of Historic route, but recalling this old discussion, I thought it worth mentioning.

Then there is situation in Paso Robles with US101. It's in the HB as US101BusPas, but signed in the field as "Historic US101" http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=1937.msg5340#msg5340 (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=1937.msg5340#msg5340). Does that mean this route needs to be included in both the usausb and usaush systems?

The bottom line for me is this. It's your (the TM contributors) sandbox. I just play in it. The thoughts and opinions of those developing and maintaining these systems are what really count.
If these routes are in the HB and I've driven them, they go on my list. (I didn't get to 100,000 miles by leaving things out  ;)).

please note that there is a segment of historic us-6 in polk county, ia.
the link is http://usroute6iowa.org/about-us/route-description (http://usroute6iowa.org/about-us/route-description).
i can remember when this road went onto sw 8th in altoona (from hubbell, instead of staying with that to i-80 as it does now) and continued onto what is now f48 (and that county road sports some of the g. a. r. highway signage) but am unsure as to where it joined up with 6 beyond that.
i also recall when hickman rd east of merle hay was part of 6. i knew this because the street had no curbs, just shoulders.
finally, has there been any effort to find old alignments of other highways? i know that us-65 (the “jefferson highway”) used to follow ne 14th and turn onto grand, go to w 7th, cross the viaduct, follow 7th to indianola av, and rejoin se 14th from there. the reason for that was that the railroad bridge on se 14th had not been constructed yet. (i have no idea what us-69 did then, since that highway also followed e 14th and still does.)

I've synced up points so that these routes intersect properly with other routes. I've not fixed NMPs.

This means that various I-, US and state route files have been changed slightly. I've pinged the relevant people via Github (apart from Jeff M, who isn't on there). Please check you are OK with the changes I'm proposing.

Jeff M: IA (https://github.com/si404/HighwayData/commit/4679d10a2b29b43ed95622450d2f9bcd9da37309), IL (https://github.com/si404/HighwayData/commit/9706093c15fb8b9fc5cdf0d1bdd4780389a85d2a),
 (https://github.com/si404/HighwayData/commit/1e22633a250bcbdc341172a14a825f82b8099bbd)

I need to apologize for not being on this earlier. I don't check this forum every day, nor do I check every thread. That said, I have a HUGE problem with this. Manipulating active system files for a prototype defeats the entire purpose of having one person in charge of a state.

There is a world of difference between making suggestions and going in and changing stuff. That complicates my end for having a complete set of up-to-date local files, and for when I'm working on something else - the Baraboo bypass affected half a dozen files.

The change to IA 21 was unnecessary because there was already a waypoint name there, the name of the current route (CRF29). Does a historic route name supersede an existing designation? For a street without a current designation, is the naming convention "OldUSXX" or "USXXHist" or what?

I fear that adding all these historic routes is missing the forest for the trees - or missing the forest to catalog every dead stump. The segment of US 6 in Des Moines pointed out above hasn't been part of mainline 6 since 1934 and hasn't been signed as anything since the early 1960s.

I know it's two months after the fact, but I am very not OK with this. If we're going to make historic routes a thing, we need to set parameters, probably limit it to very significant highways and alignments, and have the routes maintained by that state's administrator.

Couldn't agree more. I don't think historic routes should be a system, signed or otherwise as noted by my earlier comments. Once upon a time they may have been actual signed "official" routes, but they aren't any more. I see the "Historic" route signage as akin to the roadside historical markers. Even Historic US66, which is undoubtedly the most famous historical route isn't well marked in all places as I discovered on a recent trip in Oklahoma. The majority of decommissioned US routes have been renumbered as state routes (i.e. OK66). At least there is some official repository at the state level for those routes. As someone mentioned previously, other than users just noticing signage in the field, there's no way of being certain this system could ever be complete.

While I'll hate to lose the mileage I have clinched on those few segments that aren't part of the state route systems, I believe the historic route system should be scrapped. If they do end up staying, the folks handling the appropriate regions need to take these on. I'm sure there will be a difference of opinion on the subject, and I'll be interested to hear the pros and cons.

Your not having reset the files back to how you want them is what defeats the entire purpose of having one person in charge of a state!

You've moaned and griped and done nothing to fix it - do you want to be in charge of your states, or do you want to sit on the sidelines and complain about how you apparently aren't?

You've ignored my apologies, you've ignored me saying (at least twice) that you should undo the changes if you don't like them. It's like you are deliberately holding a grudge!

Sorry, I must have missed that one when reverting that type of change. CRF29 should be the label. I would change it back, but you don't want me anywhere near your fief.

The segment of US 6 in Des Moines pointed out above hasn't been part of mainline 6 since 1934 and hasn't been signed as anything since the early 1960s.
The one Barefoot Driver lists? I couldn't find signage (I might have seen one sign), and so have no plans to add it.

The proposal made by Barefoot Driver sounds similar, though less excessive, to this post:
The IA Historic US 20 that right now is confined to Dubuque County can be stretched nearly across the state to Early. Use Olde Castle Road, present 20 to the next intersection into Dyersville, and then the rest of the pre-freeway route should be easy to follow. (Or look at the Iowa DOT map archive.) I'd stick with the ca. 1960s route; the 1926-58 route from Cedar Falls to Jesup has at least two breaks in it, and the 1986-2000/2003 segment via D19 and IA 14 doesn't hold much significance IMO.

IA Historic US 6 can get an Altoona-Newton segment too (F48).

I can make the files if you want.

Even Historic US66, which is undoubtedly the most famous historical route isn't well marked in all places as I discovered on a recent trip in Oklahoma.
OK is the exception here with US66 (due to OK66), but there's 10 different signed segments of Historic US66 in the state. And I'm not sure why we need routes to be long to include them!
Quote
The majority of decommissioned US routes have been renumbered as state routes (i.e. OK66).
Sure, but why should those bits that aren't, but are considered important enough to be signed as a historic US route be ignored?
Quote
At least there is some official repository at the state level for those routes.
You want me to delete gbna? Because there's NO official repository for those routes!

As someone mentioned previously, other than users just noticing signage in the field, there's no way of being certain this system could ever be complete.
Sure, but why does that matter??

As I mentioned previously, I'm just a user of the site. You don't need my buy-in. I do think it appropriate to get the buy-in from those who maintain the individual regions/states. From the tone of a few of the past comments, that does not appear to have happened.

I've expressed my concerns. They don't seem to matter, so I'll leave the matter to those involved with updating routes in each state. Hopefully an agreement can be reached. I'll continue to update my travels based on whatever is included in the HB.

I have mixed feelings about a historic routes set. Basically, I like having them around, and indeed contributed a route file (Historic US 6 in southern California, which follows what used to be in the CA 14U route file, but when I cleaned up that file then truncated away most of it, the historic route set was a good home for the deleted segment). OTOH, I don't have a lot of interest in developing or maintaining those route files, so am content to let someone else do that. I did let Si alter some usaca route files after I objected to some of his point renames (basically, no "Hist___" points in non-historic files, instead use normal non-historic intersecting road names). I'm satisfied with how that got resolved.

One issue is that the California historic route files were drafted when the I-/US/CA routes in that state were still being worked on. As I've been fixing up routes to get usaca ready for peer review (still a few dozen left), that has created a lot of NMPs and broken concurrences with the draft historic routes. I'm not fixing them now so I can focus on usaca, but they will need to be fixed later once usaca goes active.

I think that a key point in this is that the "official" version of our data has to be that which is in the HighwayData repository rather than what's in anyone's local files.  Before making any changes, we all need to make sure we merge in the latest from the origin repository on GitHub.

I've stepped aside from highway data management for a while now, but I know I'd rather have minor fixes made (with a quick note to me that it happened) as long as by someone experienced enough that we trust they'll do the right thing, instead of having to see a problem report, go in and fix it, submit a pull request, go back and mark the request.  I do this kind of thing all the time if I notice a minor problem with labeling or the position of a route.  It's easier for me to fix than to type in the post here asking for that state's maintainer to do it.

The usaush situation is a little different, since it introduced new labels, etc, into active systems.  Even there, though it seems Jeff M. disagrees, if Si were adding a new devel system in a state I maintained, I would want him to make conforming changes to active systems.  Some new contributor without the experience, I'd be worried.  Sure, mistakes might be made but they can be worked out.

I'd like to be able to allow continued email submissions of highway data files from those uncomfortable with git and GitHub, but I think many actual and potential problems would go away if we could get more people using it.

If the Historic Routes are going to be an active system, I want to take over Iowa's. IL and MO US 66 stuff is fine but the Iowa routes need work.

On the Lincoln Highway file in GitHub, there are multiple places where loop routes (as signed in the field) are incorporated into the mainline and should be parted out. The Marion loop is the biggest example.

Fair enough. I sought to follow the signs, but will bow to greater knowledge. Again - change how you want. Obviously we don't have that route in a system, but I drafted a route file for my own interest and felt it might as well be uploaded.

If you are doing an area - then you'll see signs, know that it's something we're adding and probably drive it. Certainly you'd request the route be added/add the route yourself so that it exists and you can grab it. We've had lots of these "I was driving here, and this route was signed" posts with state routes, auxiliary US routes and the like.

If you are intrigued by this system specifically, then you'd know that there's no nice neat record and you'd keep your ear to the ground about new signs going up and such like. And, again, request/add routes as you are made aware of them. Now sure, it's a little harder than AASHTO publishing approved route changes (but isn't dissimilar to the many many states that add in/remove auxillary US routes/Business I-routes without informing AASHTO) or detailed lists being made and published by the state DoT regularly. But it's not impossible.

Not necessarily.  The Historic US 20 route near New Lebanon, NY has zero signage in the field, even on the small piece of the route that isn't concurrent with modern US 20 (which I made a special trip to clinch a couple years ago, since I had already seen everything else in the area and therefore have no other reason to go there).  Signage for the other Historic US 20 route in NY is a small shield attached with zip ties to an existing sign by the Historic US 20 group.

Well here's something: http://www.historicus20.com/historic-route-signage.html (http://www.historicus20.com/historic-route-signage.html)
As far as I can tell from the pics there is an extant US20His in Marlborough and Becket, MA (although I have no idea of the routings).
There are also some links at the bottom that may or may not be useful.

I would like to point out that the Historic US 20 signs shown in Massachusetts on this site were either photoshopped into those pictures, or temporarily mounted by the owner of that website (Bryan Farr) for the purpose of taking a picture and then removed.

Bryan has been lobbying to get Historic US 20 signage on old alignments in every state it passes through, but as far as I can tell none have actually been posted in Massachusetts.

For exaple this is what the location of the sign shown in Marlborough actually looks like as of August 2017: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.​3469468,-71.5471033,3a,15y,291.97​h,88.38t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1slI4B​fV3qyoshnye-RXCzZg!2e0!7i13312!8i​6656 (https://www.google.com/maps/@42.​3469468,-71.5471033,3a,15y,291.97​h,88.38t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1slI4B​fV3qyoshnye-RXCzZg!2e0!7i13312!8i​6656)

It helps, on following the route in the field, that US40HisSac has pretty good signage, while the corresponding former CA 160 segment through downtown doesn't have even remnant signage.

The AmeRiv waypoint on CA 160 was added after the historic routes were drafted. Lots of other historic route waypoints are out of synch with intersecting/concurrent usaca routes, as one might expect when historic routes in CA were drafted while most everything else in CA was being comprehensively updated and overhauled.

I believe, when drafting the route, CA160 still extended there, so I just copied that (I have no other idea why I would have put a shaping point near Alkali Flat) - presumably only checking eastbound as it disagrees with westbound.

Eastbound reassurance signs on: Capitol Ave near the railway bridge (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5828681,-121.5159337,3a,75y,71.78h,93.46t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sD2wi12gENaxq1AF_ESQ33A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), N just before 15th (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.574109,-121.4888438,3a,37.6y,71.94h,91.41t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s7ZyBDgmf_toElKrNEG5giw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 16th just after N (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5740649,-121.486957,3a,75y,21.82h,85.77t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1slictDajWjrVBryO0_AK-Aw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), Del Paso near Globe (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.6020847,-121.4671695,3a,75y,63.57h,81.59t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sKVDnhyK5RA-tQpJA41Ba8A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

Westbound signs on: Del Paso near Baxter (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.6039378,-121.4638716,3a,75y,254.41h,85.96t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1syP37Uc67ocoVYgn0iYWbmg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 12th at Fat Alley (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5836959,-121.4891025,3a,15y,165.9h,87.64t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sp14VlYsuAQF3iKzuSGczJw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), Capitol Ave near the railway bridge (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5828135,-121.5156978,3a,75y,295.74h,86.95t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s9B1b1w0oNU3Khnwf8ZmwGg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

We can infer Tower Bridge as being part of the route, for obvious reasons. But how to get to it from 12th/G or from it to N/15th? Assuming there's no radical difference between the routes for each direction, we can assume Hist 40 comes down 12th to L. The question has to be (other than needing to fix the route north of downtown) whether it takes the L-N pair between 9th and 3rd, or whether it takes the Capitol Mall. I gather the Capitol Mall was part of 40 (pictures of old postcards supposedly showing signage), but if you went L or N instead, then you can fudge it and call it clinched!

So I traced them (and it's just LA125 for that bit) in GMSV, and when I move from 2014 imagery to 2016 imagery, the signs disappear. This isn't "I can't find signs on more recent imagery" but "this sign that I see in 2014 imagery doesn't exist when I move a tiny bit and the image date changes". All LA125/US165 junctions, and where LA124 turns west too. It seems the signs are gone, or meant to be going.

Generally yes, the photos of Historic US 20 signs on Bryan Farr's website in NY and MA are his own mock-ups, not official signage.

That said - I can confirm that as of today the Chester-Huntington segment of Historic US 20 is actually signed!  (https://i.imgur.com/3RwwqIy.jpg)That is the only sign for it, at the western end, but there is one. So, US20HisHun can stay.

Also checked out the Sturbridge segment, and found zero signs on it. So, US20HisStu definitely needs to be deleted.

The other segments remain suspect (and I still think should be deleted) given that we have no evidence of signage other than Bryan Farr's photos which by his own admission are of signs he temporarily put up for demonstration purposes.

Don't forget neroute2's point requests which include some historic routes in CA (http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=2509.0), erroneously posted in the Updates form. Neither I nor anyone else appears to have made those changes, but his suggestions for changes to usaca routes (which I'm still working on) seem to be mostly reasonable.

In addition to changes to usaca routes, all the active system routes in California were redone after usaush was drafted, and so would need to be part of the resync. The NMP log should flag them. Also, there is some danger that possible future removals of relinquished state route segments concurrent with historic routes, like CA 2/US 66 His (Hollywood), would require additional re-synching changes to usaush routes, though I hope such changes will be manageable in number.

As of December 2017 (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.0198995,-118.490998,3a,75y,257.01h,104.21t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sJc9y8CYJP-VaaKYPRUM3Og!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) this was backed up by signage, along with an end sign (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.0151179,-118.4864376,3a,75y,147.64h,98.03t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sqmD1rMcoAeuqG8jYxzoK4Q!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) at Olympic.
How was it decided what route CA US66HisHol would follow through LA? I can't find any signs on the Goog, but if you're going for the longest-lasting alignment, that would be Sunset-Figueroa, then onto the Arroyo Seco Parkway to Pasadena. Pre-freeway (opened 1940!) it used Figueroa (partly repurposed for the freeway through Elysian Park) all the way to Pasadena. If it ever used Broadway to Mission, that was before 1934 (at which time the route was San Fernando-Eagle Rock-Colorado).
I did find two (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.1379783,-118.1874048,3a,22.2y,46.53h,107.19t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1su72eSNL6PXVluEUfT4oqXA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) signs (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.1380097,-118.1876575,3a,20.8y,189.21h,95.05t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sTITfR5THEQjWnu3BI3z3eA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) at Figueroa and Colorado. So unless anyone has a good reason for a different alignment (such as signs I missed), we should change it to turn off the current route at Sunset and Figueroa, north on Figueroa to SR 110, then overlapping SR 110 between 24B and 26, then taking over CA US66HisAzu.

CA US66HisCaj should also be combined with these two, now that Cajon Boulevard has been built across I-15.

Given the original layout at Sierra Vista, Huntington North is almost certainly old 66. (Huntington itself was the Pacific Electric.) We could tie this South Pasadena piece into the Hollywood piece, or we could give it a separate segment. City limits are Huntington at Kendall/Alhambra and Fair Oaks at Columbia.

Some notes on New Mexico's historic US 66, after reviewing the insets on the state highway map I picked up last month. These are FWIW, and I'm not sure any edits to the HB are in order.

-- The Santa Fe inset indicates that southeast of the city, historic US 66 follows at least part of the Old Las Vegas Trail (frontage road along the SB side of I-25, recently added to the HB as NM 300), rather than I-25 as the HB has it.

-- The Albuquerque inset indicates that historic US 66 follows NM 313 south of Bernalillo (where the HB has the historic route ending) into Albuquerque, then following a decommissioned part of NM 47 (still shown in OSM) into downtown Albuquerque. Then that or another historic US 66 route (this in addition to the east-west route along Central Ave.) continues on the other side of downtown, along Isleta Blvd. south to at least I-25 exit 213. The inset doesn't provide enough detail in downtown Albuquerque to indicate how the historic route segments north and south of downtown connect with each other or to the Central Ave. route, if at all.

If it helps, I can scan, and e-mail or post, the Santa Fe and Albuquerque insets.

I don't know if these mean anything:

-- NM's state highway map is undated, so all I know from the current governor's smiling face on the map is that the map was printed after she took office in 2011. But the map doesn't reflect truncation of NM 47 in Albuquerque ca. 2015, so it might not be real current.

-- Also, I don't know if the state maps' routings are consistent with signage in the field, or other info on where the routes actually went. I haven't looked at GMSV, which someone might've done already. When I passed through the Santa Fe area on my latest trip, I don't recall seeing any historic US 66 signage on NM 300 either confirming or disconfirming that the historic route followed NM 300 rather than I-25. On a previous trip, I drove NM 47 north of I-25 (including the former routing through downtown Albuquerque), and don't recall seeing any historic US 66 markers except for the Central Ave. route.

Historic US 10 is signed at several exits along I-90 in Washington. I saw signs for it at Exits 196, 215, and 220 as well as at the intersection of Danekas and Schoessler Rds northeast of Ritzville (heading to the NE on Danekas). The signs must be more recent than 2015, since neither GMSV nor Bing Streetview show them anywhere.

^ Depends on if you follow Tim's old insistence on "uniformity" with US route directions on the old CHM or how local states sign their routes.  IIRC, US 66 was signed north-south in Illinois, much like how US 52 is in that state (and others).

Looking, there isn't directional signage on US66His in IL. I went with N-S mostly unthinkingly as I default to non-gridded systems and thus reflect geography rather than odd/even. Changing these, leaving alt labels, is very simple but I'll await confirmation/consensus that it ought to be changed.

I've fixed the US66 typos.

Historic US10 I've done, however I've not changed I-90BL (where the point at Danekas/Schoessler was way off, so I fixed it on US10HisRit) or WA21 (where there's an intersection). I found this article where $50k was secured to sign US10His in Eastern WA (http://markschoesler.src.wastateleg.org/legislature-backs-effort-promote-historic-u-s-10-route/). Given it's apparently signed county boundary to county boundary in Adams County, but obviously won't have end signs, I've extended it to the next intersection either way.

MO US66HisFlo:
Suggest centering waypoints along the  centerline of Dunn Rd. Even if it breaks intersecting/concurrent routes, it less confusingly & more accurately tracks where the route goes; more important IMO. There's even a false-positive multiplex from I-270(27) to I-270(28).

Well here's something: http://www.historicus20.com/historic-route-signage.html (http://www.historicus20.com/historic-route-signage.html)
As far as I can tell from the pics there is an extant US20His in Marlborough and Becket, MA (although I have no idea of the routings).
and Weston, MA, New Lebanon, NY, North East, PA, Sandhills, NE...

Sadly the Ostriches haven't roamed those parts for a long time, so route discernment is difficult (the Becket, MA is a tiny former alignment segment where the turnpike diverted it - called Morse Rd).
I don't see any references in the link at the quote, including at web.archive.org.
No historic route signage in GMSV either, including historic imagery.
On NE US20HisCra NWhiLakeRd AirRd_W, sattelite imagery shows badly deteriorated pavement, returning to nature. There's no GMSV coverage, and while I have no reason to suspect the road isn't open to traffic, I doubt this is the kind of road anyone would want to put historic route signs on for the tourists.

Barring anything really revelatory, I'll probably delete both Nebraska usaush routes soon.

There's definitely non-fake signs in Gordon (https://sheridancountyjournalstar.net/news/item/2737-gordon-unveils-historic-us-route-20-signs). The article refers to Rushville, which also has at least one sign (screenshot of similar article from the same local paper preserved on the the Historic US20 website). GMSV is 2012, so doesn't show these more recent additions. I might have put the ends a waypoint too far, but there is decent evidence that Historic US20 is signed along US20 at these two towns.

I'm fine with routes, especially US20 ones, being removed if there's no evidence of them.

IIRC, the Historic US20 site used to have a map with cities with signs marked on it (hence Sandhills, NE, etc). These signs could have just been someone putting it up on their wall, rather than being used on the road.

US30 Columbia River Gorge doesn't end at Exit 35, but extends through Dodson and Warrendale, reentering the freeway at Exit 37.

There's an additional US30 Hist segment between Cascade Locks and Hood River, according to signage I spotted from the freeway on the old route. Looks like it's from Exit 44 to 51, taking Frontage Road and Wyeth Rd. It's entirely possible that US 30 proper through Cascade Locks is included.

The historic route intersection with Harbor Drive is also where ramps to and from SB I-5 meet Harbor Drive.

I think the intersection being part of the I-5(54C) interchange, it's appropriate to include points for both I-5(54C) to reflect the tie-in to I-5, and Harbor Drive (the latter point helps show the historic route as parallel to I-5 on the old US 101 bridge over the San Luis Rey River).

I'm not sure how to fix the I-5(54A) point on the historic route. CA 76 appears to end at I-5, with the connector to the Coast Hwy. not officially part of the state highway (I can check my paper Caltrans logbooks, once I get back home, to confirm). Maybe move the point to the Coast Hwy./Mission Expy, intersection, and rename it MisExpy?

As someone who grew up in Oceanside, extending the historic route over the old San Luis River bridge looks right to me.

Since it appears to begin where the ramps intersect Harbor Dr, I think one point at I-5(54C) would be good enough, although a shaping point on the bridge could make it easier to see if necessary, depending on what you do with the I-5(54A) point.

That's how I would handle it, although this sign (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.2049103,-117.3812793,3a,75y,339.47h,100.48t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sNd4bvsH44kEBjqnLnWgpvw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) and this sign (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.2017684,-117.3839065,3a,44.9y,7.95h,88t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sSepzXBO_JJd6UaQvkHqPUw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) make it look like it's worth investigating the true end of CA 76.

^ I'm at home (briefly), was able to check out Caltrans' old paper logs as well as the more current online Postmile Query Tool. Both put CA 76's west end at I-5 rather than Coast Hwy (US 101 Historic), with CA 76's postmile 0.0 in the I-5 median. So I'm leaving CA 76 as is in the Highway Browser, even with the otherwise convincing signage shown in your GMSV links.

I think a labeled waypoint at the Coast Hwy./Harbor Dr. intersection (HarbDr_W, since there's an intersection with another Harbor Dr. in San Diego) best reflects the end of signage for the historic route, and the approximate north end of the old pavement (obliterated by the new I-5, until it resumes within the Marine Corps base). That also more clearly shows the historic route as separate from the parallel I-5, even with the moved and renamed I-5(54A) point on the south side of the river.

No signage on Harbor Dr. between Coast Hwy. and I-5, so I'm not as sure about including the I-5(54C) point as the historic route's north end just to maintain a graph connection with I-5 - @si404, any thoughts on that, as (I assume) the original drafter of the route file?

I'd suggest one point per interchange means that the Coast Hwy / Harbor Dr intersection is part of the I-5 interchange. The intersection is, after all, a crossroads with the southbound carriageway's ramps opposite Coast Hwy.

Moving the point with not-CA76 should make it separate enough from I-5.

Gotcha. I-5(54C), and I-5(54A) => MisExpy (relocated to Coast Hwy.), it is.

I can implement those changes later this weekend, before I disappear for a week camping in western Massachusetts.

Former US 66 in NM has the pre-1937 alignment signed on surface roads in a couple places not shown on TM:

- Santa Fe to I-25 Exit 339 follows the frontage road ("Old Las Vegas Highway" or "Frontage Road 2116") where it exists
- The old alignment in Albuquerque and south/West, following 4th Street, Bridge Blvd, and Isleta Blvd to NM 314, thence south to NM 6 and west along NM 6 to I-40. Yes, this means that all four legs of the Central/4th intersection in Downtown Albuquerque are signed as "Historic 66". I did NOT see if signs exist north/east of where 4th crosses I-40, but it is possible.

I did NOT see if signs exist north/east of where 4th crosses I-40, but it is possible.
When the files were made, I couldn't see any signs between I-25/US550 and that Central/4th intersection. Nor any south of Central. There's also the issue that 4th disappears at the Civic Plaza. But that's because the GMSV wasn't that good/recent and I didn't know the route well enough to target my search in the right places.

edit: found a couple of signs at I-40/NM6 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@34.9846278,-107.1804135,3a,15.4y,116.81h,89.96t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sWeYLGzupPDD2Zh4ABA-X6A!2e0!7i16384!8i8192).

The signage from I-40 at Georgia and Western is odd as neither of those streets has ever been part of US 66 as far as I can tell...?  The point of the signs is likely meant to be TO Historic US 66 as opposed to posting the actual historic route.

True, but there are no 'TO' banners at all, and if they were looking for 'TO' connections from I-40, you'd have thought signing eastbound before Western - most notably on the free-flow connection along I-40BL that's really rather short - would have surely made more sense.

What I can see is that OK state is relatively good at signing US66 Historic with the exception of in and around OK66 (when not concurrent with I-44). Cities are much more a mixed bag, and OK City is one of the worse ones - partially because the route is more complex than just 'the one main road through the town'.

Elk City has got signs that I must of missed initially (perhaps as they are all westbound): 1 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@35.4218956,-99.3738037,3a,75y,269.65h,86.09t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sAic_bpKLUgfzktxRUEZQ2A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 2 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@35.411773,-99.4039341,3a,42.6y,280.38h,90.25t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sEffId8KWsVNVoEG7B1s6Wg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 3 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@35.4118527,-99.4348493,3a,16.4y,262.34h,89.74t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sA4eQURqIm-Hn7AL2G6APIQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

What has happened instead with usaush is that with no single authoritative data source for it available, it has been languishing in limbo, routinely getting adjustments made as new information is found but never brought to a state of being "done" because there is no measuring stick by which to declare it done.

In this regard, the usaush system is effectively another example of "stupid truck routes".

Ergo, as I see it, we have two realistic options here:
- We need to realize that, without an authoritative data source, this system is lacking in officiality and go ahead and 86 it. Then it's no longer a problem.
- We need to realize that, without an authoritative data source, this system is never going to meet the usual threshold of being ready, and go ahead and promote it to active status. Then any further changes will get noted in updates and any waypoint relabelings will have their old labels preserved if in use, and we don't need to redefine anything about how preview systems are handled.

Since we still work on improving usaush, I guess that we tend to option 2? Is there anything left to be addressed before activation?

Or does anyone tend to option 1?

My personal viewpoint on Historic US Routes is Option 1.  There's no background system source, it seems to be shifting with the winds, and there's no consistency.  Worse than Truck routes in those regards.

Seconded. While it's nice to be able to add some additional mileage, this entire system has been problematic from the beginning.
Here's an excerpt of my comments from 2 1/2 years ago.

Is the some sort of "official designation" by state DOTs for historic routes?
If not, who determines which routes are included?
How will we know if the route list is complete? Is there some "master" list?
What about routes that had different alignments over time?

This system just feels a bit slapdash especially if TM contributors are relying on "reports from the field" to make sure the route list is complete. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the effort and will be glad to add any new routes to my list file. I'm just looking for a bit of clarity on this route system. It's still somewhat confusing as to the criteria for a route to be included.

Those comments were quickly shot down so I let it go. While I'd hate to lose the roughly 500 miles I've driven on these routes, my comments from Feb 2016 seem just as relevant today as they did then. As far as I can tell, if the route is signed (officially or otherwise) it gets included. Not a bad approach, but as others have also pointed out, there is no source material and no consistency.

I'd be fine if the system got activated as is or dropped. As the saying goes, "this decision is above my pay grade."

The system hasn't been problematic, but Vogonish attitudes demanding paperwork in triplicate from governmental sources have been.

There were some creases (the US20 guy), but we've ironed them out now.

Maybe I am confused as to why this page http://travelmapping.net/credits.php (http://travelmapping.net/credits.php) has so many governmental sources as references. I can't recall all the countless threads highlighting something official from state DOTs or the latest AASHTO meeting minutes. Correct my ignorance about whether national or regional systems need official sources before changes are made in the highway browser. This system won't have official sources. If no one cares, that's fine.

If it doesn't matter whether there is an underlying source, why has it been such a frequent topic of discussion?  I'm not trying to start an argument. I'm trying to understand.

As I said earlier, activate the system or kill it. I don't care either way.

It's not the existence and use of Governmental sources for systems on this site that's an issue, but the demand for this system to be as sourced in the same way as them and if it can't be it should be ditched.

Absolutely, where Government sources exist and are helpful, go for it. However, just because something is different shouldn't mean its banishment. The problem with this system has always been the naysayers calling for its removal because it doesn't fit their preconceived notions. It's been far more work to deal with them than to hunt for signs, analysis the sometimes sparse data we have, etc.

But you and froggie do care - "There's no background system source" is your complaint.

Are you saying you are revoking your objection? If so, great!

My poetry is shite, but not as bad as you reading comprehension - its clear that I'm describing others as Vogons here.

I've found some stuff from official sources to appease the Vogons. I doubt it will be enough, but:

CA: pretty hopeless getting explicitly DOT sources - its just hobbyist/business group sites. There's some legislative designations, but only for US80 (http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/pub/05-06/bill/asm/ab_0101-0150/acr_123_bill_20060816_chaptered.html) (I think US66 in the state has some federal legislation), AFAICS

IL: US66 His map (http://idot.illinois.gov/Assets/uploads/files/Travel-Information/Maps-&-Charts/Scenic-Byways/HISTORIC%20ROUTE%2066.pdf) (a more interactive one here (http://idot.illinois.gov/travel-information/tourism/scenic-byways/index))

TX: TX THC Route 66 2018 survey (https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/historic-texas-highways/route-66/route-66-survey/route-66-maps)

Of course, a lot of stuff is done at the county/city level as well. I can't be bothered to find these as more general sources - wikipedia, tile mapping, etc provided enough information for my (what wikipedia would call) 'original research'. There's perhaps nothing in the above sources that add anything, but I'll cite them anyway. We don't seem to add newspapers as sources for openings, so we shouldn't for announcements about signage being posted - those (and contributor field reports), while invaluable, won't get added to the sources list.

From the US6 Historic (Durant) thread (http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=3174.0). Just because it deals with some general stuff (namely obstacles, banners and along the existing route).
The problem with the McPherson alignment is that there's now an airport runway in the way. Going all the way out on McPherson would result in two dead-ends. Now that 6 has been removed from Broadway in CB, I can creating a segment from I-480 to I-80 - but then does the on-Kanesville off-Broadway segment get included, omitted, or is there a second file? (That is, the piece currently there becomes "US 6 (Historic)(1934-82)"
We're not following what is the actual historic alignment, but what is signed as such (and AFAICS, this bit isn't signed). This isn't a documentation of the past alignment, but a documentation of the present. Certainly with 66 there's cases where the signed route is on the wrong frontage road as the freeway chopped the original roadway in two.

I doubt that Historic 6 signs will be placed in Des Moines, since it's still alive on the post-1934 Hickman/Euclid alignment and this seems ripe for ROW/maintenance issues.
Sure - we're only included signed sections, so if it doesn't get signed, even if designated (I believe US6 in Iowa

Extension to/past Grinnell: Would completely overlap existing 6. (This is historically accurate, as the River-to-River Route in Grinnell followed 4th Avenue instead but almost certainly was moved to 6th when US 32 was paved in 1928.)

<snip>

Overall, I believe only Cass and Poweshiek counties specifically put up Historic 6 shields where it overlaps the existing route. Everywhere else, it's marked only where current 6 is not. I don't see any Historic 6 shields in West Liberty, for example.

I believe it is best to stick with segments of Historic 6 where it is NOT overlapping the modern route. For example, the Atlantic segment should end at the 71/83 intersection, because right now it's redundant to Oakland.
I agree it is stupid to sign Historic 6 on current 6 (unless for short bits linking sections off US6, such as that brief bit leaving Davenport). But it is signed, so surely we include it?

Also, Pottawattamie County signs it along vanilla US6 (at least partially): 1 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.2889578,-95.4038282,3a,75y,298.36h,80.38t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sR6BwDlkSEcaW4sMiEl1twg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 2 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.2889618,-95.4039325,3a,75y,129.5h,72.06t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sUJFIBhWfLYGaFlfMhBx-Eg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656),3 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.2891142,-95.403462,3a,75y,6.49h,80.81t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1siTqlE__dS3rlsgiLuE6jNg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 4 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.2895234,-95.4034588,3a,28.8y,213.3h,79.33t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s6QgOig-3uEK-YReTWshUxQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 5 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.3176388,-95.3851111,3a,36.5y,315.69h,84.47t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sFxMuuLP3nJIP8YdsEmDbZg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)

This system won't have official sources. If no one cares, that's fine.
But you and froggie do care - "There's no background system source" is your complaint.

Are you saying you are revoking your objection? If so, great!

If sources aren't needed, then yes, I revoke my objection.

Do you believe the system is ready for activation?

I see you've already got it in the HB. Fair play.
I would have used that same routing, because:
 • the main thru alignment curving around the corner at 216thSt_N and SouSt_E
 • this avoids 2 at-grade RXRs
 • in satellite view, McKenna Ave does look like the business center of town's main street
...but not been 100% confident in it.
I don't see signage in GMSV for any of the turns. (Ecch, this is like, cannss-level lack of clarity...)
Si, do you have any sources on the alignment/turns, or did you just come to pretty much the same conclusions I did?

All of those pictures, save for one that's two miles away, are at the same intersection. Historic 6 is not marked with reassurance signs elsewhere in the county. It's a bare-minimum required for the one turn 6 makes there. Between there and Atlantic, the only sign is at IA 48. It's not signed at the IA 83 or south US 71 intersections, which makes me think I was wrong in saying that Cass does the whole thing.

The next waypoint after the signs run out? It might not be massively accurate, but it's better than nothing. We don't want to throw in points for city/county line because one city/county decides to sign and one doesn't - easier just to end it at the next highway. And the end points are arguably state lines, the current route, or a parallel interstate (depending on what state, what route, etc), just with large sections that aren't signed that we're not including.

Or we could go with a logical terminus concept - so, in the absence of info to the contrary, the route stops at the next major junction (similar to what you have asked for in OK extending routes to a more logical terminus like another route) rather than some minor road that happens to be the next point along.

True, they merely sign one interchange well, and put one other sign, but - as you say - they clear that bar of 'bear minimum'.

I was replying to "I believe only Cass and Poweshiek counties specifically put up Historic 6 shields where it overlaps the existing route." and said that Pottawattamie County "signs it along vanilla US6 (at least partially)" - that's surely undeniable.

Additionally, I don't see why it has to be signed loads. Especially as you take the opposite view for US66 and asked for it to extend through 4 TOTSOs with US281/US281Spr despite just one sign for all that navigation - a reassurance one just off US281Spr (where El Reno's section begins):
OK US 66 Weatherford: Again, wondering about the abrupt stop for the east end. I would encourage extending this to join El Reno's Hist 66.
But I'd be fine with chopping historic routes at their parent when there is a long signed (at least partially) concurrency with them, despite the existence of signs. Ditto not including sections entirely concurrent with their parent. I'd prefer to include such sections, despite them being silly, but...

I'd prefer McCValRd. "Val" is the abbreviation for "Valley" used for other California routes.

For ca.us080hiswin, CHS24 => CRS24 (reversion to the standard CR abbreviation for signed county routes is underway for other California routes). Similar change for any other CH__ labels in California historic route files, though I'm not sure there are any.

In general, many waypoints will need to be re-synched with intersecting/concurrent California Interstate/US/state routes. usaush was drafted while California routes were being extensively overhauled, with lots of changes made to their waypoint coordinates. Those coordinates now are stable (if you spot any that need to be changed, please reset them and let me know what needs to be changed in the non-historic routes).

I'll do a more complete look at CA and NM historic routes when I have more time.

US 6 in Chardon looks good. Silly, since it is marked along a few blocks of current US 6, but it's marked.
US 20 in the Painesville: I only found one marker (westbound in the westernmost segment). How did you determine the eastern end?

There is also a Historic 20 marker in Norwalk here (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.2322293,-82.6411615,3a,75y,99.59h,89.13t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sw_RHbhKNRMRkINoTonoDRw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) (2018 imagery). I believe that you had included a Norwalk segment at some point in the past but deleted it. Here's one in Monroeville (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.236257,-82.6897362,3a,75y,264.35h,90.5t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sZmZ9zqDZF1PNLmOko_rYaA!2e0!5s20180901T000000!7i13312!8i6656) too.

eastbound signs:
approaching intersection with Shankland (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.6291868,-81.4201028,3a,90y,112.46h,79.74t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sKriuR6zzd6rRx-iDrIkbkg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) (about halfway along OH91<->OH174 segment)

westbound signs: outside Champs Barber-Stylists (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.7914534,-81.1065866,3a,39.5y,267.03h,82.14t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1swUhyM3nw9cm1_7fyGxTqpA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) (just after Townline Road, halfway between OH528 and CenRd)

Apparently, the City of Mentor (http://cityofmentor.com/along-historic-us-route-20/) have signed it, but I've not found those signs! Nor have I found this sign (http://lakehistorycenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/LCHS_Aug17.pdf) (which I believe is in North Perry[/url]. And I can't read this article (https://www.news-herald.com/news/ohio/route-in-eastern-lake-county-has-officials-wary/article_7d3e2765-d7be-51f8-9527-f809f54cad12.html) as the EU is a corporatist and protectionist racket creating regulations that small and foreign (and especially both) businesses cannot afford to comply with.


As it's entirely concurrent with US20, it doesn't have to be kept (ditto the US6 ones). Pretty sure those Monroeville and Norwalk ones were '86ed in the purge of US20, but updated Streetview is a boost. Got confirmation of the Norwalk sign that created that route (which included Monroeville): at Main and Church (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.2413541,-82.6177009,3a,15.1y,96.69h,87.77t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sRpV9RJ3dE62QEJSBAgBOIw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

@Highway63, could you address why you relocated Historic US66 in downtown Springfield IL when you adjusted the routing of I-55BL? Did the 66 signs move too?
Per the AASHTO filing:

Quote
The proposed relocation is necessitated by the City of Springfield’s Rail Improvement Project which includes the construction of a railroad underpass near the current Business Route 55 designation (9th St. and Laurel St.). This proposed underpass will require ending the 9th St. pavement that currently carries the Business Route 55 designation. This proposed relocation also places more of the business route within the downtown Springfield business district. Please note the relocated route marking will be placed on streets under the jurisdiction of the City of Springfield.

Unless Illinois is going to dead-end the 66 signage it makes no sense that signs wouldn't be relocated as well.  The closest alternative I would see is to move the northbound-only east-west section to Laurel Street assuming the Laurel/9th intersection remained intact. If someone goes to Springfield AFTER the underpass project is done and sees 66 split from the redirected BL 55 and stay on 9th to some point, I'll change it back.

US 6hissan: add a point at CA14(6A)

If you're referring to the direct Sierra Hwy, ramps to/from CA 14, that intersection with the Sierra Highway is really, really close to the existing ViaPri waypoint. I'm also treating those ramps on CA 14 as part of the CA14(6) interchange, even though NB CA 14 has separate 6A (Sierra Hwy.) and 6B (Via Princessa) ramp numbers, so there is no separate 6A point.

If there is no signage on the ~20% north of the county line, that doesn't mean it isn't part of the historic route. I think the signage south of the county line is enough to treat the entire route (to the extent still open to traffic) as signed for our purposes. Especially since historic route fans may be interested in clinching as much of the entire old route as still exists, even if only part has historic route signage.

(I'm not one of those people -- I traveled almost all of the route while figuring out what to do with CA 14U, and contributed my updated route file to usaush before ultimately truncating away most of it for CA 14U.)

In California, as I'm sure you've noticed in your usaca peer review, there are routes signed only in the middle like CA 153, or only at one end.

There's a big difference when the local governments are responsible for signage. If Kern County hasn't installed signs, and there are none posted by others in Kern County, that portion doesn't belong here.

US 40hisaub: yeah. That west end. As far as I can tell, the only "eastbound" signage in that area is on Lincoln Way. If you follow the signs westbound, you do in fact end up making a loop, turning right on Commercial and merging into Maple. I suggest that we treat the last two signs on Maple as errors, and assume that the intent was to point traffic over the bridge to I-80 west (the first can be explained as missing a left arrow, and the second...maybe for traffic from I-80 west to Historic US 40 east?). In fact there used to be a sign (http://google.com/maps/@38.8978193,-121.0785963,3a,27.9y,335.23h,89.49t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1su1hcGjvCUSdlQccEO6bvOQ!2e0!5s20120701T000000!7i13312!8i6656) pointing left after crossing the bridge. So per 1PPI, the only change to make is removing the extra AubFolRd_S point (and AubFolRd_N -> AubFolRd).
US 40hisaub: LinWay_S -> LinWay_W, LinWay_N -> LinWay_E
US 40hisaub: the route between ForRd and BellRd is wrong per signs 1 (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.9223009,-121.0566885,3a,24.7y,86.79h,86.76t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sTGODadT2Q_UgdegPEAX1HA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) 2 (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.9241669,-121.058248,3a,75y,231.86h,84.91t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1srapGcG1uTv8yRYdMbEgvjg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) 3 (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.9235596,-121.0580779,3a,24y,340.35h,84.08t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1syLy8KszZRbuu1JVUlmYdTw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656); sign 4 (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.9232575,-121.0565031,3a,32.1y,124.87h,85.82t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sB62Oc71WNgMFzeL2GRWQqw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656) probably has the wrong arrow. So delete I-80(122) and instead add I-80(121), AubRavRd_W, and BowUCRd.

I-80(131) http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=39.044698&lon=-120.974091
Point 130 on I-80 needs to move to match. It's not signed beyond PonWay_S (https://www.google.com/maps/@39.0353351,-120.9723378,3a,75y,61.75h,64.99t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s7KfbG5TX645P3osngqtosA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), so maybe don't include I-80(131).

US 40hisros: add EurRd_E after I-80(105A)?
US 40hisros: is this actually signed all the way to Auburn? It's well signed in Roseville, Rocklin, and Loomis, but I see nothing after that. So end it at ToRipRd http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=38.836235&lon=-121.178969 ?

US 40hissac: there is no signage and no defined traversable route between GraSt (note the reconfiguration just east of there, which removed the signs east of the underpass) and the capitol area. This needs to be split in two. The first eastbound sign in Sacto is on N after 9th, and the last westbound I can find is on 12th after F. But someone following actual historic US 40 (12th-F-15th) would not see the latter, since it's not on a road that was ever US 40! So what to do? How can we put the line in the middle if there's no westbound route? In any case, everything west of BSt needs to be redone.
US 40hissac: I think it's more appropriate to put it on Del Paso Boulevard east of 46A(CA160) (which should be CA160(46A) anyway). There were only a few years that US 40 went over the railroad on modern 160 and then exited onto Del Paso; the overpass was built almost simultaneously with the freeway to the east. So delete 46B(CA160) and DelPasoBlvd_S -> CA160(46B)?
US 40hissac: El Camino east of Auburn was never US 40. But there's a sign on it (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.6111712,-121.4291707,3a,32.2y,279.68h,89.47t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sKKK8ILiH4AnBEmE3ONAmEQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). Ugh. No change.

US 40histru: do we have any confirmation of signage near the west end? There's no GSV (or other street view site) coverage west of I-80(168), and I don't see any signs on GSV west of I-80(171) (meaning we'd end it at 168 if there's nothing else).
US 40histru: StaLn doesn't exist
US 40histru: where does the JudAcc name come from?
US 40histru: is the easternmost sign at I-80(186) (https://www.google.com/maps/@39.3260478,-120.1946305,3a,36.4y,179.98h,88.13t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1seivVRnf7GqeDRTgnfRDxCQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)? If so, we should probably end it at GleDr, since Donner Pass Road east of there was never US 40.

For Sacramento Capitol Area, just to flag up this post for a refresher.
I believe, when drafting the route, CA160 still extended there, so I just copied that (I have no other idea why I would have put a shaping point near Alkali Flat) - presumably only checking eastbound as it disagrees with westbound.

Eastbound reassurance signs on: Capitol Ave near the railway bridge (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5828681,-121.5159337,3a,75y,71.78h,93.46t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sD2wi12gENaxq1AF_ESQ33A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), N just before 15th (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.574109,-121.4888438,3a,37.6y,71.94h,91.41t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s7ZyBDgmf_toElKrNEG5giw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 16th just after N (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5740649,-121.486957,3a,75y,21.82h,85.77t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1slictDajWjrVBryO0_AK-Aw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), Del Paso near Globe (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.6020847,-121.4671695,3a,75y,63.57h,81.59t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sKVDnhyK5RA-tQpJA41Ba8A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

Westbound signs on: Del Paso near Baxter (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.6039378,-121.4638716,3a,75y,254.41h,85.96t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1syP37Uc67ocoVYgn0iYWbmg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), 12th at Fat Alley (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5836959,-121.4891025,3a,15y,165.9h,87.64t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sp14VlYsuAQF3iKzuSGczJw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), Capitol Ave near the railway bridge (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@38.5828135,-121.5156978,3a,75y,295.74h,86.95t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s9B1b1w0oNU3Khnwf8ZmwGg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656).

We can infer Tower Bridge as being part of the route, for obvious reasons. But how to get to it from 12th/G or from it to N/15th? Assuming there's no radical difference between the routes for each direction, we can assume Hist 40 comes down 12th to L. The question has to be (other than needing to fix the route north of downtown) whether it takes the L-N pair between 9th and 3rd, or whether it takes the Capitol Mall. I gather the Capitol Mall was part of 40 (pictures of old postcards supposedly showing signage), but if you went L or N instead, then you can fudge it and call it clinched!

Since this post, signs on Capitol near the railway bridge have been removed (and Capitol is now one-way eastbound there). I also found a sign at N/9th.

The last pre-one-way-pair routing of US 40 was Capitol-9th-N-16th. When one-way streets were implemented in the mid-1950s, westbound was moved to 12th-F-15th, rejoining eastbound at N (and using N-9th-Capitol). In the early 1960s, the one-block jog was moved from 9th to 7th (eastbound) and 8th (westbound). A temporary alignment was signed in 1965, using Capitol-3rd-Q-16th eastbound and 12th-F-15th-P-5th-Capitol westbound, and the 1967 official is the first to show US 40 signs removed.

The problem is that there's no good option for signing westbound 40, since all but the last temporary alignment have streets going the wrong way. The city seems to have given up and posted a sign at 12th and F, where it doesn't belong. And eastbound has two reasonable options and a third possible (temporary) one, which we know they didn't choose because of the signs on N. But we still have no knowledge of the intended street to jog on (7th or 9th), so we cannot map a route. "you can fudge it and call it clinched" is not acceptable. And the westbound route is unknown because they chose to place a sign where US 40 never went. All we can do is end westbound after that sign and only map eastbound around the capitol. Here's my suggestion for that area:

And the westbound route is unknown because they chose to place a sign where US 40 never went.
Is it unknown, or just vaguely/poorly defined? And is unknown non-existent?

And, surely a sign is a help for defining the route, rather than the reason for it being unknown?

I'm fine with a split - it seems sensible given the circumstance, but there's a lot of fallacious reasoning trying to justify it.

Maybe you should look at a map and plot out the signs rather than attack my supposedly fallacious reasoning.

But in Sacramento and Auburn you've decided the signs are wrong and therefore so at the TM routes. What would be the point of looking at a map and plotting out the signs if you are just going ignore signs you don't like.  :pan:

US 99hisind: how much of this is actually signed? all I can verify is south of CA111_S and a bit in Indio just south of IndBlvd; if there's nothing else split it into US 99hiscal (south of CA111_S -> CA111) and US 99hisind (Ave48 to IndBlvd -> Hwy111). In any case it's doubtful this route ever was or will be signed north of IndBlvd, since for most of its life US 99 used Indio Boulevard and the I-10 corridor.
US 99hisind: 1stSt/Hef -> 1stSt
US 99hisind: add 2ndSt_E in Calexico
US 99hisind: CA86/111_S -> CA111_Heb

US 99hislos has a gap in Burbank and needs to be split. There is a sign just south of MagBlvd (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.1830014,-118.3117044,3a,23.9y,142.72h,86.35t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sw2P4cGmMESBV6e4OXPHdPw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), so that's a good northern end for the shortened US 99hislos. But I can't find anything north of there until VanNuys (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.266056,-118.4221559,3a,22.9y,150.82h,98.34t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1suFcHdAZDIWdgx1YbVKwT1A!2e0!7i16384!8i8192), posted by LA.

US 99hislos: OsbPl -> OsbSt
US 99hislos: VanNuys -> VanNuysBlvd
US 99hislos: move CA118 to the correct interchange
US 99hislos: do we have the correct route through San Fernando? Neither San Fernando Road nor Truman Street is signed, as best as I can tell, and I'm not sure which one US 99 actually used.
US 99hislos: add a point at SepBlvd between RoxSt and BalBlvd
US 99hislos: BalBlvd -> BalRd (https://www.google.com/maps/@34.3201858,-118.4971906,3a,29.9y,89.98h,83.36t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1syALNV0XFb5pj8OYxkCKS8g!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)

US 99Ehischi: WTF?

I'm guessing this refers to the stray one-waypoint.wpt file, that's an unprocessed .wpt not in the HB.
'
I had mentioned to Si that I'd seen US 99E historic signage south of downtown Chico (probably summer 2017), but no photos or other details. Si couldn't find the signs I saw.

I have no problems with omitting this route, unless a better GMSV search spots adequate signage..

Eastbound can almost do it, but you need to turn before the plaza on Don Gaspar or loop after on Cathedral. Westbound is horrible; a sign points right on Old Santa Fe Trail just west of WatSt_E, but then you're forced to Palace at Washington. Are there even any signs west of downtown? If not, perhaps delete everything west of WatSt_E and add these (also EAlaSt -> AlaSt and PasPer_E -> PasPer):

"Old" rather than "Historic"? Maybe that shouldn't make a difference, but then other states like Maryland occasionally use "Old" banners on former routings with no historic significance.

Routes considered for "US Historic Routes" have brown shields, or background, and have 'Historic' in the banner above the number.

Yes, there is no Iowa 192 signed in Council Bluff. I don't recall seeing any signs for that road when I was in Council Bluff/Omaha, last year (doing Lincoln Hwy traveling).

That seems a sensible idea. And, tbh, the difference between active and active+preview works as such a toggle in most states - only 4 states currently have preview systems (AL, CA, LA, NY) and there aren't a huge number left to make (some secondary systems, usams).

Ditching it entirely seems a bit excessive.

It seems to me, from reading responses on here, that other than for US66, Historic US routes are more community driven than some state sanctioned body. We all know what US 19, or US 281, or SR (insert your state of choice) 37 is. They are easily identifiable on any map, paper or digital. Historic US routes are not easily identifiable in the field, rarely shown on maps, and end up overlapping most existing routes.
Thus a debate, for the travel mapping community, that has not been solved, and most likely will not come to a conclusion (unless the operation of "Historic US Routes" changes among state and federal DOTs)

I'm in agreement with most of the people on here. Former US 66 deserves to be on the site, but most of the others...aren't really a thing yet and, in many cases, just overlap the modern road (cough...Historic US 20 in OH and NY). In some states, Ex-66 is signed as well as (if not better than) state routes and with how many people explicitly seek out 66 (both in and out of the road enthusiast community), having it on the site is beneficial.

Possible solution: maybe throw US 66 into a future "national scenic byways" system (similar to the European Tourist Routes) if we ever get around to doing that? Such a system would, by its nature, include several historic highways, such as the National Road and Lincoln Highway, which ARE well-signed and sought out. The national scenic byway system has a decent amount of deviation from the state highway system in some states,

Yeah, US 66 is actually signed at junctions too, which helps with finding it. For example, I had no idea where the routing of historic US 6 in Gretna NE was driving from current US 6, and had to cross-check Google Maps with the HB just to make sure I did it right. Stuff like the historic US 20 sections in Nebraska and the one sign I found by Lusk probably shouldn't be in it anyway.

66 is where it started. The big problem is US20 which is very haphazard. The others are somewhere on the spectrum.

I did look at NSB, and it's a similar situation - some stuff well signed, other stuff not so much. Most in the middle.

California has some historic US routes that are mostly well-signed, by local associations that take care of the signage even though there is no state role since the historic routes are mostly on mileage removed from the Caltrans-maintained highway system.

Aside from Historic US 66, there's Historic US 6 (in Los Angeles County, the shorter part in Kern County is last I checked unsigned), and Historic US 99 (a new local association is devoted to the part through the mountains north of Los Angeles). Historic US 40 is generally well signed. Maybe Historic US 80 and US 395 as well. And all of these routes are mostly non-concurrent with state-maintained routes in the HB.

I would not be as bearish as some others about keeping usaush around in some form, even though I'm not into historic routes. I also don't put much effort into clinching them, even in states like California where I've clinched most everything else in the HB. I am not bothered by historic and other routes showing up as unclinched on my maps.

put it on a shelf to be revisited once we have the ability for users to toggle systems on and off in their stats.
That seems a sensible idea. And, tbh, the difference between active and active+preview works as such a toggle in most states - only 4 states currently have preview systems (AL, CA, LA, NY) and there aren't a huge number left to make (some secondary systems, usams).

Ditching it entirely seems a bit excessive.
It's worth noting that, while it does differentiate stats, it does not do the same for maps.

The toggle thing we have thrown around for a while would solve a bunch of other issues/disagreements we have here, most notably unsigned routes. I don't know how much coding that would require to make happen (nor do I have the time/expertise to play around with it), but it would take care of the issue of historic routes by just letting people eliminate it from their map if they only care about clinching certain things. I'd frankly like to expand this to ALL systems so people can easily turn things on/off to help prioritize classes of routes in their planning (i.e. to focus on higher-level routes outside of home region), but let's not get ahead of ourselves. It seems like it would be something we could do pretty easily by putting a flag on line entries, but I'll leave that to the computer people.

All 4 of the previews have sat untouched for years (Oscar's battling jurisdiction issues in CA, the Parkways ought to be ready now in NY, but are suffering from debates about where a couple routes that cross into Jersey go, with the number of routes being held for field checks and other, LA could be a while, AL is due to froggie's waiting for it's peer review (which is/was pushing back MS - which also has the 7xx+ routes and whether they should be added.)  There are also "da rules" which many of you are still adhering to that came from CHM.

I would not favor turning off "Preview" due to the lengthy delays going on but I will not be mad if it is because this is due to the systems being in flux and not confirmed as this set will be in preview for quite some time for that very reason. 

As such, having the off-switch is better than nothing.

As for this system, US-66 got enough attention in some states that it certainly deserves a look - because of its history.  It belongs more with routes that have history or tourist value (again debatable for the other historic US Routes) such as Lincoln Highway, Lewis and Clark Trail, Great River Road, Dixie Highway, etc.  There are so many it will taake time to track all of them down.  This would be more of a "Tourist Routes" system.

usaca has been peer reviewed (your recent comment on CA 73 was also on neroute2's long review list). Problem was that happened at the same time canqc was peer reviewed. I chose finishing up canqc as my 2020 lockdown project. I was busy on the road after canqc was activated, and I was let out of my cage. Now that travel season is pretty much over for me (mainly bad weather and limited daylight), I'll have time to get back to work on usaca.

I think grab-bag systems are a plague and should be avoided as such.

WRT usaush specifically, osu-lsu sums up my thoughts well.
We all know what US 19, or US 281, or SR (insert your state of choice) 37 is. They are easily identifiable on any map, paper or digital. Historic US routes are not easily identifiable in the field, rarely shown on maps
How the heck do we define them? We essentially have to rely on field signage, which is of wildly varying quality, and often close to non-existent.
For example some of the routes in Nebraska i believe have only one sign on them. No other dots to connect to; no segments, only points.

We essentially have to rely on field signage, which is of wildly varying quality, and often close to non-existent.
But we actively (and somewhat aggressively) remove routes that are on the map, officially defined, whatever because they aren't signed. Whether or not a route is signed on the ground is literally the criteria for inclusion for every single state system in the US (and other systems as well) isn't official definition or how it's mapped, but what's on the signs.

If you want to know what routes on TM are clinchable - a map isn't reliable, unless it has our database overlaid on it. We all know what CA710 is (to use a route that I lost travels on during usaca review purging it as unsigned) - it's on maps, it's in state DOT documents, etc, etc. But the only way of knowing without resorting to having a look at TM as to whether its on TM is to actually drive it and field check it for signage itself (it's far easier to check TM!) and find that its completely unsigned. A missing shield at a junction is something, but you don't know about signage elsewhere on the route, stuff going the other way, etc - the lack of one sign doesn't render a route unsigned...

Official definitions are not (usually - eg usai) definitive for TM purposes. Maps, paper or digital, don't actually show what travels you can actually map on TM. Many routes are not easily identifiable in the field as to whether they are signed and thus included - missing shields on certain approaches, perhaps its signed along part of its full length, etc? Field checking is pretty much just as irrelevant as everything else as there's usually routes that slip through the net (cf the many updates saying such a route is unsigned and should be removed from the database!) and you also can't just declare a route unsigned by not seeing a sign in a likely place - the only definitive way to know if something is TM clinchable is whether its on TM to be clinched.

Title: Re: usaush: United States Historic US Routes
Post by: bejacob on January 01, 2021, 06:35:11 pm
Wisconsin County Trunk Highways are incredibly well signed and they aren't included (for good reason). Same it true for all the "letter" routes in Missouri which are technically "state supplemental routes." See https://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=127.msg601#msg601 (https://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=127.msg601#msg601).

The point is, a route being signed or not is not the sole criteria for inclusion in the HB.

Some of the disjointed sections of US66His in Missouri are hard to follow. When I drove it in late 2018, there was no signage on US66HisLaq other than "P" and "AA" though there was signage for Historic US66 on MO17 in the same area. If US66HisLaq had not been in the HB, I would have never known it was an old alignment of Route 66. If being signed it the determining factor, this 2.52 mile segment needs to be removed.

There are clearly some strong opinions on either side of this issue. I stick by my original thought. usaush is NOT a system. It is a list of old alignments of routes that have been moved or decommissioned. Routes like US20His in Ohio or Nebraska can go and most of us would never miss them. Many of the historic routes (though not all) are signed as state routes. Take the system out of TM and the question of whether it is TM clinchable or not is moot. If I decided at some point to clinch all the Wisconsin County trunk highways, I could do that despite the fact that are not in (and should not be in) TM.

I'm open the idea of a "select" system of significant US tourist routes of which Historic US66 could be a part. Most of the rest of the usaush would either be covered by concurrent routes (i.e. WA US99HisFed) or could be eliminated with minimal impact to TM.

Perhaps it's time to engage all the people who maintain the various states and come up with a consensus whether to keep or kill this system?

As for Oregon, ODOT tends to view 30H as defacto 30, whether overlaid with mainline 30 (30H Rowena Crest, part of 30H Cascade Locks), and will omit signing mainline 30 in those respective segments (such as zero 30 reassurance shields on 84 despite mainline 30's overlap).
I'm disinclined to agree to a wholesale removal of usaush because of this.

That doesn't really apply to US 30 Historic, since Bickendan lives there. Also, AIUI, US 30 Historic is also unsigned OR 100. That would mean ODOT would know where the historic route starts and ends, without much need for field checking.

Having no signed state route number, but with historic US 30 signage, it would fit better in usaush rather than usaor. And being a significant tourist draw for its awesome scenery and waterfalls (certainly lured me off the Interstate on my first visit to Oregon), it seems to me the kind of route that usaush is made for.

Because of how ODOT signs it, if we have a user interested in the US highways but not the Interstates (setting aside the unlikeliness), if they wanted to follow 30 from Astoria to Ontario, they would diverge from 84, following 30H. (To be clear: this is what I did with US 14 through Wyoming and South Dakota with respect to I-90)
If usaush were fully pulled, that user would have effective gaps on their 30 tracking because signs directed them to take the Historic route. (Analog: My taking 14A from Cody into the Bighorns instead of taking 14/16/20 to the divergence, though I did backtrack slightly to visit Shell Canyon Falls).

Of course, Everyone Knows that 30 stays on 84 through the thrust of the Gorge, but as Oscar also notes, the main thrust of 30H is ORH 100, which is part of a system we're reluctant at including.

Unlike probably most USH routes, 30H is DOT sacntioned, signed, and maintained. It should remain with TM, though I can see it being moved to usausb, and frankly, that could be a better place for the verifiable USH routes.

Are there more options?
Title: Re: usaush: United States Historic US Routes
Post by: oscar on January 02, 2021, 05:54:22 am
I think there are three options:

  • Remove all usaush routes from TM
  • Remove usaush system from TM and introduce a new "USA Select Tourist Routes" system similar to eursf (https://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?sys=eurtr) (maintainer of each region decides whether routes are included or not) - either preview or active (now or intention to activate it)
  • Keep usaush as-is in preview status - no activity for activation
  • Activate usaush as-is today

The last option should be modified, to fix Datacheck errors on several routes, remove some of the flakier routes, and make some fixes to the remaining routes (for example, perhaps the probably-unsigned CA US6hissan segment in Kern County, which neroute2 has suggested be removed). usaush is not ready to activate "as-is".

A new "Select Tourist Routes" system (option 2) would mean reinventing the wheel, to provide some guidance about selection of routes to go into the system rather than repeat the issues we've had with usasf with inconsistent selection criteria between regions. usaush at least seems to have some selection criteria in place.

Trying to too formally define the "select" systems would be a Bad Thing IMO. Too restrictive. One size does not fit all.

Agreed. "Select" expressly states the system is not comprehensive, it's just some routes that have been deemed important enough to map.

A "select" system need not be comprehensive. Include the major things that we know are signed well and call it a day, particularly routes where a decent amount does not overlap other signed routes. Such a system could include, but would not be limited to:


I don't think anyone proposes including stuff like the Dutchess County Historic Tour, which includes most through roads in the county. A "select" system would be stuff of extra-regional or national/international interest.

Very open to this, but oscar's point about selection being an issue is a very valid one.

I will point out that 'National Scenic Byways' (in capitals) is rather a messy system, even just the more elite 'All American Roads' - with a lot of branches and bifurcating loops and stuff. There's perhaps a few routes that are coherent, signed reasonably well, and not fully part of other systems (a lot of routes are entirely concurrent with just one route) AARs/NSBs that might be worth considering. The 'Historic Columbia River Highway' AAR would be one to add (as US30His?) to a more grabbag system. Las Vegas Strip AAR, perhaps could be, despite its short length (in part because it is very well travelled) - though I don't think it's signed. On the other hand, there's at least a site with maps (https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/byways/byways) and legal definitions - the lack of which is one of the things that annoys people with usaush.

Fair enough. Certainly, however, it wouldn't have been included if there wasn't at least one sign at one point - as the system has gone through several purges of unsigned routes.

Arguably it's no more a system than a collection of routes that all share similar shield signs. However it's not a list of old alignments of routes that have been moved or decommissioned - it's far more selective than that, relying (like most other systems) on signage, and there's many (thanks US20His! though also US6His too) bits where the historic route is sharing pavement with the current route.

The thing with a "select" byways system is that we could restrict it to byways that are not 100% concurrent with signed routes. This would immediately eliminate the vast majority of national scenic byways and a handful of historic routes (cough...Historic 20 in Ohio). There's no use in having a route that entirely overlaps Utah SR 12. For example, there is only one national scenic byway in New York that meets this criteria (the Great Lakes Seaway Trail) even though the state has three of them.

But there is benefit to including things like the Great River Road and Columbia River Highway (as examples) that have significant segments on roads not already in the system, because not only are they signed routes, there is significant interest in driving and mapping them. I wouldn't necessarily restrict it to the America's Byways system, either, as this doesn't include significant portions of several named highways that are well-signed, nor does it include all of 66. Maybe stuff like the 49 Mile Scenic Drive in San Francisco, too (I think that's signed), because there's a lot of interest in that, but I know people are worried about scope creep.

I'm glad you said well-signed national tourist routes, and not systems. ;)
For usaush, the "well-signed" part may apply to some routes and some jurisdictions, or certainly doesn't extend to the system as a whole.

Do we really need criteria?
It certainly beats an "any old rubbish" approach...

And my point is that this applies to pretty much every system in North America. "Updates to Highway Data" has about as many threads on routes being unsigned and thus must be removed/routes now being signed and thus now can be included, as it does on construction occurring.
What sets usaush apart from the formal state systems is that we have only signage to go on. With the regular state systems, when signage is incomplete/inadequate, we at least have the "on paper" definitions to fall back on, to shed some light on where the route goes, what's "supposed to be" signed. With historic routes, we have no such luxury. When there's next to no signage, or just one lone sign in a random downtown, we don't have much of a definition of a route.

Post by: compdude787 on April 27, 2021, 02:05:11 am
So I finally got the chance this past weekend to get out to Eastern Washington and field check the various Historic US 10 routes. I can say that they are all pretty well signed, with signs at the exits from I-90 where Historic US 10 branches off of I-90 as well as reassurance markers along the routes. So here are my comments.

US10HisFre:
Since this is signed from I-90 at Exit 143, I think this route should be extended from the intersection with Silica Road to I-90. The only thing I'm unsure about is whether or not we want to include this part of Silica Road given that it was never part of US 10 in the first place.

US10HisRit:
Can confirm that it does indeed start at the exit with Rd Q NE; there is a sign from I-90 EB at Exit 184.

Needs an additional waypoint at the intersection of Baseline Road and Road Q NE (just south of the I-90 interchange).

Also, east of the WA21 waypoint, (I just submitted a pull request (https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/4711) to add a corresponding waypoint to the WA 21 wpt file) there needs to be an additional shaping point so that the line for this doesn't cross over the line for I-90. (or you can just add a visible waypoint at Wahl Road)

The route seems to peter out at Paha Packard Road; there is no sign indicating that it turns south onto this road and then makes a left turn onto Heineman Road. In fact, Heineman Road is a gravel road, which is a clear indication that it was never part of US 10 or it would have been paved years ago! So US10HisRit needs to be split into two; the eastern section would start at I-90 Exit 220 and should still be named US10HisRit, but I'm not totally sure what to call the western section since there are no towns or anything along it. My idea is to call it US10HistSch since it runs on Schrag Road through Adams County, and there's a tiny locality named Schrag on Google Maps (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Schrag,+WA+99169/@47.0732059,-118.8585446,2114m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x54992d6932c2da67:0x7be4567902f59426!8m2!3d47.0731982!4d-118.8541666) (and OSM) located sort of along the route.

In Ritzville, the route does indeed start up again at exit 220. It is actually signed better than I-90 BL; the business loop has no signage on I-90 (whereas the historical route does), and I would have gotten rid of it except that I saw two signs for it in the town of Ritzville. I know this is unrelated, but I guess this qualifies as being enough signage to keep the business route...what do you guys think?

Also part of my pull request (https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/4711) is for the aforementioned I-90 BL to fix the NMP at the I-90BL_E waypoint at Schoessler Rd.

Finally, this route should extend beyond the western city limits of Sprague; there is a sign for this route in Sprague, and one just east of Sprague (I filmed a dashcam video on this route; I'd be happy to post some stills from my video if you need me to). There should be a waypoint added at B Street in Sprague since it connects to WA 23, and the route should end at I-90 exit 254.

US10HisChe: This route looks good to me; it is indeed signed.

Historic US 10 is signed in George, Washington.

I know I'm quoting an old post, but do you have any proof of this? Do you know what the route would be? I didn't see any signs as I was driving by George on I-90.

Also, I noticed that there are signs for Historic US 10 through Moses Lake; a sign can be seen from I-90 EB at Exit 176 (https://goo.gl/maps/gdnEMHURiaiygR336), and GMSV shows signs for this route along the same route as the I-90 BL in Moses Lake. So basically, you can just do a copypasta of the I-90 BL Moses Lake wpt file.

I know this is a lot of things that need to be changed in Washington. Si, do you want to be the one making these changes, or are you okay with me doing these edits? I'm totally fine if you want to do the edits since you're drafting this system.

And finally, I haven't really commented on whether or not to keep or get rid of this system or not. I am totally fine with it staying. I see this as being akin to Interstate business loops, which aren't really officially defined by the state DOT, at least not in Washington, but I'm not sure about other states. In both cases the issue is that with no official governmental source defining where these routes go, it means that you have to have the route be really well signed (i.e. more than just 1-2 signs somewhere along the route). I'd say that these routes just require more signage than an officially defined state or US route, and that if there aren't sufficient signs to enable a driver to follow a historic route, then delete the route from the system.

Interesting. Is that the case with most states you maintain? Washington doesn't list them in their state highway log, and to me that means they are not maintained by the state. Only two of the business loops in the state, I-90 BL in Spokane Valley and I-5 BL in Castle Rock, are signed from the freeway, while the other two have no signs from the freeway and barely have any signage along the route.

9/12 states I maintain have no usaib routes at all.

Nebraska has only one (https://travelmapping.net/hb/showroute.php?r=ne.i080blpin), a continuation of one in Wyoming (https://travelmapping.net/hb/showroute.php?r=wy.i080blpin). No signage at all on the Nebraska side. The route log doesn't mention it specifically, only US30 & L53B (https://travelmapping.net/hb/showroute.php?r=ne.l53b) which it's overlaid onto.
This one should probably be deleted.

In Oklahoma, they do seem to be official to whatever degree. They're shown on county/city maps and in shapefiles.

I also wanted to ask you about this:

Was there a reason you didn't extend it all the way to I-90 on Silica Road, even though there are signs from the freeway?

Almost certainly because I had no imagery of signs from the freeway when drafting, and so couldn't say whether it would diverge from the former US10 alignment to meet I-90, or take the former US10 frontage road, or just end at that junction.

Historic US 66 in Springfield IL does not follow the I-55 business loop between Spruce St and Lawrence Ave. The routing between 6th/7th and 9th uses Spruce both directions.

For those of you who have traveled on US 10 Hist Ritzville, your list file will most likely be broken now because I split the route in two to reflect that there is a gap on the route between Exits 215 and 220 just west of Ritzville. The part west of Exit 215 is a new route named US10HisSch.

I was there yesterday.  Exit 149 off I-90 to SR 281.  S Frontage Road NW, running parallel to and south of the freeway, is signed with a brown "Historic US 10 Route" sign going either direction from the intersection of SR281. Photos attached.

Thanks for the reply and for providing photos. I've basically gone ahead and extended US10HisFre along the frontage road southeast of I-90 from Exit 143, then through George, to end at Exit 151. I've also renamed it to US10HisGeo, which would break only my list file since I'm the only traveler on US10HisFre. Beyond Exit 151, I can't imagine Historical US 10 continuing on a frontage road east of that exit towards Moses Lake; this website (https://www.angelfire.com/wa2/hwysofwastate/us010trunkS.html) says that I-90 was built directly on top of old US 10 with the frontage lanes added later.

Anyway, I've created a pull request for this change: https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/4822

For IA US6HisDur, it looks like 20Ave>-20thAve, 60Ave>-60thAve, 70Ave>-70thAve.

I guess HicGroRd is fine as-is based on the rules for usash though I guess it should be US6_E?

HicGroRd is US6His itself; it's Kimberly that departs.
I support US6_E, as that refers to a real present-day designation.

My viewpoint on the usaush system is a matter of record.  But if we are going to forge ahead with it, I would be remiss if I didn’t note that Historic US 20 is signed in Iowa, at least Dyersville and Julien (https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Julien,+Dubuque,+IA+52068/Dyersville/@42.4513987,-91.0573342,11.3z/data=!4m24!4m23!1m15!1m1!1s0x87e3323b636524b1:0xe53425e2ff2ac65d!2m2!1d-90.7795725!2d42.4811138!3m4!1m2!1d-90.9882537!2d42.4462657!3s0x87e34eca5c524995:0xbc64b677d268724!3m4!1m2!1d-91.0122955!2d42.442773!3s0x87e34ef192153143:0x53e2c3f53e1e83ca!1m5!1m1!1s0x87e353808a4f7449:0xaad4a468e629f64a!2m2!1d-91.1140899!2d42.4836415!3e0).  It was also co-signed with mainline US 20 and US 52 on the stretch they share from east of Dyersville to the west side of Farley.

I offer a counterpoint.  Eventually US 20 H is going to be signed and I can confirm it’s signed in Delaware and Dubuque Counties thoroughly and unthread in the one Michih linked for merge I indicated it’s sparsely signed in Buchanan County as of last winter, but I did not see Black Hawk County’s signage.  I drove no further past Waterloo and realized later I had taken the wrong route.  I will likely be shifting my reading to more local places after this trip to DC/Cleveland (for Sandor’s road meet).  I’d hold off until we can confirm more locations are more thoroughly signed. I also have my reservations about the historic routes being part of the essential to completion but that will be discussed elsewhere. If yakra and Jim manage to modify the site to allow turning off these route systems, I’m more comfortable with it.

'essential', 'completion'. It is you who have invented and defined those concepts. They aren't concepts of the site, but concepts of the game you want to play using the site. You can easily define them differently.

Sure, the oft-discussed proposal to hide systems users don't want would make it easier to keep score by your rules, and long ago it was decided to hold of with usaush so that it can be simply excluded by looking at the active-only stats rather than the harder (but still not hard) having to open the region stats page which gives you a per-system lowdown.

Should we make it easier for users to play games as part of mapping their travels? Absolutely!

Is the existence of systems you aren't interested in stopping you playing the game you want to play currently? Absolutely not!

FWIW, I am aware of the signing of Historic US 20 across the state. It is now an auto trail. I met with Bryan Farr on one of his trips across the state this year. He was wrapping up talks with (I think?) Black Hawk County and that was the last one he had to talk to.

You are sure quick to assume that I play games, I do not.
Then why do you care enough about game concepts like 'completion' on a site for mapping road travels to want to deny others the ability to map travels on roads which you aren't personally interested in as it ruins that game concept for you?

Game-style scorekeeping is something that the travel statistics can easily provide, and so "gotta clinch 'em all" is a natural thing to want to do. I have zero problem with people treating elements of this site as games to win, and I do so myself. However, the idea that usaush shouldn't be mappable because it mucks up your 'score' is an illegitimate argument that the negative connotations often associated with playing games (petty, childish, frivolously fun-focussed) aptly apply. There's legit issues with the system (oft-patchy signage, lack of official route mapping, etc), but the statistics one isn't one.

It's not difficult to ignore (though that doesn't mean it shouldn't be easier to do so - especially as its a popular feature request) 'side quests' like usaush if you don't care about them - nothing is 'essential to completion' as you make up the rules of the game you want to play, but that doesn't mean that others should be denied from mapping their travels along such routes if they want to.

I don't always - I only do it when faced with this rude argument that I see as an attack.

I'm fine with people disagreeing with me about what the site is about, and have no intent to stop them using it the way they want. What I'm not fine with is people pushing for conformity to the way they want in ways that stop me from using the site the way I want, as they can't be bothered to simply ignore what they want to ignore.

Personally, I couldn't care less about interstate business routes. Am I asking for their removal due to my personal lack of interest? No. Because that would be immensely rude to those who made and maintained the routes, and those who care about mapping their travels on them. You don't want to use this work that I was interested in and so spent weeks of effort on? Fine, just ignore it - it really isn't hard! But if you want to stop me, anyone else who wants to use it, from using it, then you better have a good reason (and there have been some made wrt usaush) or I'll view it as an attack and go into defence-mode. Personal disinterest is not a good reason - it's an arrogant argument that should be called out for what it is every time it's made.


AFAICS, the worst I'd attacked SSOWorld with is saying they are playing a game. Apparently that was beyond the pale! ::) OK, I've called out the childishness and selfishness of the "I don't want it, so no one should have it" argument that was being made, but that was about the argument, not the person.

To answer my own question, from 3 months ago, yes.  ;D
Actually on the west side of Wakeman (and ironically, initially addressed on Page 3 of this thread, 4 years ago) there are several Historic US 20 shields for a older narrower turn coming off Oh 303 along Hyde St. Add to that, there is a 'Historic US 20' Shield attached to the Wakeman City Limit sign for WB traffic of US 20 (east edge of Wakeman).

Missouri info: there are two areas where US66His veers off from the current routing.

First, off MO96 near Spencer. US66His veers off MO96 here, (https://goo.gl/maps/DTKVFmc2dF1XZ3w49) turns right on MO N (sign from other direction) (https://goo.gl/maps/NRRKZzS9yJSGUxNH8), crosses MO96 and heads onto MO266 from there.

Also, there appears to be a US66His from some time period that goes through downtown Rolla. While signage on I-44BL indicates it stays on I-44BL (1) SB before Pine (https://goo.gl/maps/cGzNMpUQ2Ho8vgoZ6) (2) NB turning onto US63 (https://goo.gl/maps/a76GiXPPVQgBDxGu5), SB signage appears on Pine St (https://goo.gl/maps/hjux4wgQ68H7JjMa9) and Rolla St (https://goo.gl/maps/7nBoNk6eMjezj1j47), NB signage at 6th St (https://goo.gl/maps/seFLEWqm6EAA48Tq7). Something curious.

My "EZ 66 Guide" (2015) has answers to both of these.

Old 66 at Spencer: The “EZ66 Guide” agrees with your suggestion, and OSM even labels it as “Route 66 (1926-1961)”. Google seems to be confused just which route to the northeast is MO 266 (what I have is right). I will change this.

Old 66 at Rolla: The guide labels the Pine-6th-Kingshighway route an "optional city route". BL 44 is the preferred route, probably because the other goes right into the edge of college traffic at the institution formerly known as the University of Missouri-Rolla.

Historic 99 seems to have a problem south of San Fernando. What route is it following between VanNuys and TruSt_S?

Also, VanNuys should probably be VanNuysBlvd since that intersection is not in Van Nuys.

Looks like the fairly simple problem of the wrong CA118 point being added to the US99His file as it's 44B one way and 44C the other, with 44B in that direction being the point taken.

And yes, VanNuysBlvd rather than VanNuys.

I drove a decent amount of CA US40HisAub this afternoon. That is signed east to at least I-80 Exit 133, using Geisendorfer Road, Paoli Lane, Ponderosa Way, and Canyon Way. I propose extending it east from where it currently ends along that route to Exit 133. I got on 80 at Exit 133, but a GSV survey shows another segment of Historic 40 running east from Exit 135 via Auburn Street and Main Street to SR 174 on the north side of town. This does not appear to be connected to the segment that ends at 133, but I need to field check.

GSV surveying shows yet another segment stretching following Rollins Lake Road, Magra Road, and Gold Run Road. I'm not finding  a signed connection between this and the other segments, but again I need to field check.

I had a Colfax segment, for some reason not in the browser, between I-80 exits 130 and 144.

There's the question of implied routings filling in short gaps. I had the gap as between exits 129-130, you have it as 133-135 and along CA174.

Having convinced myself in the past that there's no gaps where you have them, and you saying there's no gap where I have it, I've extended the Auburn file to exit 144. This may change when I rehash CA in more detail.

US66HisStL has a few places is western MO where the actual signed differs from what is in the HB.

Two minor deviations are in Joplin (between MO43_N and I-49BL_S) and Carthage (between WilSt_N and CR118). In Joplin, Route 66 turns north at the waypoint named StLouAve. It then makes a right turn on to Euclid Ave following this street to Utica St. It goes a couple blocks before turning north on Florida St where it meets up with what's currently in the HB. All the turns are clearly signed. In Carthage, the signs direct US66His around the opposite side of Kellogg Lake. At WilSt_N, the signed route turns right following Esterly Drive around the lake and joining up with Old 66 Blvd where it turns right and follows the HB routing to CR118. GMSV has good imagery at each turn to confirm my recent field check.

A much bigger deviation occurs in Springfield, MO (which claims to be the "birthplace of Route 66"). The section in question is between waypoints SceAve and US65Bus. Coming into Springfield, US66HisStL follows W Chestnut Expy, concurrent with I-44BLSpr. At College Rd, I-44BLSpr veers slightly left consistent with what's in the HB. Route 66 veers right and follows College Rd. It continues along W College Rd, around Park Central Square, and on to E Saint Louis St until it reaches US65Bus (Glenstone Ave) where it turns north and meets up with I-44-BL at the intersection of Glenstone and E Chestnut Expy. From this point the HB is correct at least as far as Rolla (haven't driven the route beyond that). The route it well-signed and GMSV backs up what I saw in the field.

The alternate routings of Route 66 in this area all have good signage and are correct in the HB.

Looking, it's 1PPIing the ramp between CA110 and N San Fernando Road with the pre-existing exit 26A point on CA110.

Came in here to point this out and yeah I think this is a case where we need to break the graph connection since keeping it makes the route trace for US99HisLos way too janky.

Relatedly, I think we need to break this route up into separate Los Angeles and San Fernando segments. Here's why:
- in Burbank, just north of MagBlvd, the old US 99 alignment no longer exists since a shopping mall has been built on top of it. There are no signs directing traffic around. Indeed... there are no historic US 99 signs anywhere in Burbank at all. The signs disappear after the Los Angeles/Glendale City line, which is at Tyburn Street a few blocks south of the GleBlvd point. So, US99HisLos should end there.
- there is another discontinuity in the route at the I-5(147) point where following it would require jumping up onto (northbound) or down off of (southbound) an overpass with no ramps connecting it to the road underneath. There are no historic US 99 signs between the two discontinuities. The next place they appear north of Burbank is at the Van Nuys Blvd intersection, so that (or the next point south depending on how you wish to interpret it) is where the south end of the San Fernando section should be.

Earlier today, I noticed several US 20 Historic signs in Sac County IA, along CRD36 between IA 471 and US 71. There's also a sign at the intersection with IA 471 indicating the historic route continues north along 471, though I didn't see any historic signage between CRD36 and present-day US 20, to indicate where the historic route goes.

This is just for information, in case I have an opportunity to add that segment of CRD36 to my list file (don't know whether adding it to usaush is warranted).

Indeed - and 'eventually' might be rather soon given the rate that the rest has been rolled out, and that Iowa has designated Historic US20 across the state as something more official - though anything is more official than 'guy selling signs did some ninja placement of signs for marketing purposes' as it was a few years ago!  ;)

I had the opportunity to drive some of the old US20 route (using the maps at historicus20.com (http://historicus20.com) as a guide) while en route to clinch the rest US20 in Iowa. Travelling west from Ackley to IA471, I found the old US20 route decently signed with historic markers, and nearly all turns marked. The same cannot be said for the route from Cushing to Sioux City; while there were historic signs at the city limits of Cushing and Correctionville, no other signage appears present through this stretch. Take of this what you will, if you wish to include this route or not.

It's really strange they have the US50His signs, because the signs elsewhere in Folsom are Lincoln Highway* ones, of which there are none on Sutter Street.

Anyway, this short and isolated route has been added locally. I also looked elsewhere (Altamont Pass, Folsom Blvd in Sacramento) and found no other signed routes.

IMO, the Lincoln Highway and Great River Road are more worthy than some of the things we currently include (not that I endorse removing anything,  I'm on the "include as much as possible" train). Both are signed extremely well, sometimes better than state routes. In the case of the LH, it's often signed better than Old 40 and Old 50 in California/ Nevada and are functionally equivalent to historic US routes.
