Not all turns on a route are worthy of a waypoint. See for example NS NS322 NanAve OchSt via Thistle St. IMO there's not terribly much ambiguity to resolve here. If I were to add a point here, it would be because Didsbury itself is a sorta-large community that draws some traffic & travelers on its own.
Aw what the hey. I've added points for less in Massachusetts. And Nebraska. And Alberta.

AB604 -adjust co-ordinates of WP3 "AB2A" (Adjusted on AB2aWet too.)
AB608 - change WP0 AB36/AB53 --> "AB36/53"
AB608Ami -this route is unsigned. Delete? (Point renamed on AB884.)
AB610 -extend to AB17
AB619 -change WP1 AB130 --> "RR130"
AB660 -change WP3 AB472 --> "RR472"
AB663Lak -this route is unsigned. Delete?
AB677 -change WP3 50Ave --> "50St"
AB684 -check location of WP9 "LanSt" (Another case of imperfect coords in the shapefiles. Adjusted.)
--- Quote from: julmac on July 24, 2018, 10:33:05 pm ---AB616 -change WP10 RR12 --> "AB778_S"
AB661 -change WP4 TR630 -->"AB769_N"
--- End quote ---
Labels chosen because the concurrent route doesn't leave the multiplex here; it just quietly begins/ends, with no junction as such. I chose the intersecting road name instead.
--- Quote from: julmac on July 24, 2018, 10:33:05 pm ---AB616 -consider splitting @ AB 2A (not co-signed)
AB663 -consider splitting route @ AB 63 (not co-signed)
AB677 -consider splitting route @ AB 2 (not co-signed)
AB695 -consider splitting route @ AB 35 (not co-signed)
--- End quote ---
These are cases of our "implied concurrency" or "implied multiplex" practice on TM. Even if a route is not signed, or not designated, on a short hop along another route, the connection is plotted within a single file anyway. This helps with continuity, not having too many distinct routes in the HB, etc.

AB641 -change WP4 AB/SK --> "AB17/SK17"
--- End quote ---
At route endpoints, regional boundary labels take precedence over exit numbers or intersecting routes.
The coordinates came from the shapefiles, and line up with Mapbox Satellite & ESRI WorldImagery.

-change WP4 ParEdm --> "231St" and check the co-ordinates
--- End quote ---
These coords came from QGIS, as a result of my "truncate to the municipal boundary" policy I decided on upthread. The boundary was just a tiny tiny bit west of the road junction. The point is shown on the municipal boundary in ESRI WorldTopoMap.
--- Quote from: julmac on July 24, 2018, 10:33:05 pm ---AB663 -add two WPs @ Railway Ave and 1 St (Colinton)
--- End quote ---
Another one like NS NS322 NanAve OchSt via Thistle St. No need to plot out every turn, especially in small communities like this. Having the point at Main & Railway might be arguably more useful though. Moved, as it results in slightly better shaping.
--- Quote from: julmac on July 24, 2018, 10:33:05 pm ---AB686 -convert SP11 to WP (this is the location of the future extension of AB 686 shown on the Progress Chart)
--- End quote ---
I couldn't find any road name to name this point after, so I left it hidden. With no GMSV in the area, I was also at a loss for finding any signage for a nearby or distant placename.

My notes for the 700s:
AB736
- consider moving the north end point south a bit to "RR11". While the end point shown in technically correct, it doesn't match the signage and is less practical.
AB742
- add WP @ Three Sisters Blvd (turn required).
AB744
- define the route through Peach River (multiple turns required).
AB750
- move WP18 "TR794B" about 270 m south to match a recent intersection relocation.
AB761Pon
-add WPs @ "TR430_E" and "TR430_W" (turns required).
AB769
- change WP1 "TwpRs612" --> "TR612".
AB774
- For practical purposes consider moving the south end point 300 m north to the north parking lot entrance. This is where the recently paved road ends. There is no end sign. The first shield northbound is about 250 m north of that.
AB780
- add WPs @ "TR470_E" and "TR470_W" (turns required).
AB791
- add WPs @ "TR250_W", "TR250_E", "TR270_W", and "TR270_E" (turns required).

Added AB686 (Fort McMurray). Somehow missed this when originally drafting the system.
julmac, thanks for the continued review; I hope to get back to this soon.

AB813
-change WP3 "TwpTd680"--> "TR680"
AB827
-add WPs @ "TR590_E" and "TR590_W" (turns required)

My notes for routes 850-986:
AB853
-check co-ordinates of WP6 "AB26", WP9 "AB14_W", and WP10 "AB14_E"
AB870
-add WPs @ "RaiAve" and "50St" (Innisfree)
AB873
-change WP5 "ParkRd103" --> "ParkAccRd103" (using the proper name) or "PAR103" (using the official shorthand)
AB87Duc
-extend south to new WP @ "15Ave"
AB879
-move WP5 "TR74" south to "TR70" for improved shaping
AB881
-check co-ordinates of WP2 "RR134"
AB884
-change WP34 "TR415" --> "AB608"
AB897
-split into two routes with the south route ending at "AB55_E" and the north route beginning at "AB55_W" (route is unsigned between these two points with four distinct sections: a portion along AB 55, a portion under municipal jurisdiction, a portion within a military base with gated access, and a portion under provincial jurisdiction).
