MN US169 labels, Shakopee

CR69_S & CR101 should refer to US169Bus, if not convert to exit numbers.
Interesting shields on the BGSes here.

With two exceptions, business routes in Minnesota are by and large "afterthoughts".  I wouldn't even put them at the same level as county routes.

The two exceptions are BUS 2 in East Grand Forks and 371 in Brainerd...both of those, at least, are on the state highway system.

Despite the signage, MnDOT doesn't consider them as being routes aside from the two aforementioned exceptions.  Purely local in nature...71/23 through Willmar is an excellent example of that as they have unique signage that existed before MnDOT standardized business route signage for local jurisdictions to use.


That said, I do have the known ones in the HB except for BUS 60 in St James as signage no longer exists for that one.
