Title: NV171
Post by: mvak36 on February 04, 2019, 12:07:06 pm
Should this highway be added? It is unsigned, but it does show up on OSM.

I drove the connector in October 2018, during some field-checking of TM route files in the Las Vegas area. It did nothing to convince me that the 0.7 mile part that is unsigned NV 171 should be added to the HB as such, or that we should add that and the rest of the connector (which is county-maintained) to the HB as part of our system for named but unnumbered freeways.

Whatever flexibility we have for including routes with no signed route numbers in the HB's numbered route systems, has been used rarely and (in North America) only for much longer routes.
