1. 67thAveN should be 67thAve.
2.  GeoBisPkwy should be changed to RMGriPkwy.

Agreed.  I like that better. 

I just wanted to get this posted while I was thinking about it (especially since it has no direct relation to my ongoing SC State Highways peer review).

Agreed.  I like that better. 

If it means anything, the route is signed with the full "Robert M. Grissom Parkway" name.

  MarKingBlvd MLKingBlvd

If the cross road name has more than 3 words, use one of two options:
1. Pick out the two most important words besides the road type and use only those: Martin Luther King Boulevard becomes MarKingBlvd. Three words in total are included in shortened form.
2. Pick out one important word besides the road type and use it and the initials of the other words: Martin Luther King Boulevard becomes MLKingBlvd. Two words in total are included in shortened form along with initials of the rest.

US89, yakra's revision is based on the above in the manual.  I had personally been interpreting the rule wrong.  Hence RobGriPkwy instead of RobMGriPkwy.
