Title: NJ: I-295 and US 130 Points near Westville
Post by: Markkos1992 on July 03, 2017, 04:32:52 pm

Should the points on I-295 and/or US 130 be redone to show that the US 130 concurrency ends at Exit 23 (https://www.google.com/maps/@39.8598418,-75.1553327,3a,75y,46.64h,92.9t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s8JJjBhZ1BjoSF4jCsQ__jg!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo1.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3D8JJjBhZ1BjoSF4jCsQ__jg%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D308.14856%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i13312!8i6656)? 

Also should the Exit 24 point be split into Exits 24A and 24B (seems to be separate interchanges with separate roads separated by a railroad).

EDIT:  I accidentally put this with the solved threads.

Looking over NJ recently; ISTR checking out this area & things looked OK, but I can give another look-see.

During the meanwhilst, I've moved the topic to "Updates to Highway Data"

Looked again, and I agree: Leave I-295; change US130. Might make the graphs a wee bit uglier, but hey. Perfection cannot be achieved. :) "Where the centerlines cross."

Wow, man! This is a fine example of how things can get wibbly-wobbly. A nice, annoying, test of "One Point Per Interchange" vs. "Double Half Interchanges"...
• Is it one single interchange?
• Is it two half interchanges?
• Is it two discrete, albeit partial, interchanges?
As they both serve traffic only to/from the east, and serve separate roads & areas on separate sides of the tracks (albeit close together), I'm kinda leaning toward the "two discrete (partial) interchanges" option. The "24" label is not in use, otherwise I'd be a bit more hesitant to make a change. An added bonus is a graph connection between I-295 & NJ45, and thus an "Intersecting/Concurrent Routes" listing in the HB.
