Title: MD 211 is signed
Post by: mapcat on April 10, 2021, 09:19:35 pm

MD 211 is signed along Sargent Rd between DC/MD (implied) and MD 212. Is there a reason it’s not included?

There was a time in the not-too-distant past where it WASN'T signed at Chillum Rd (MD 501).  I recall it wasn't signed at all during my DC time (2008-2012).

MD 211 was officially decommissioned in 1997 (per Wiki anyway). It is not in the 2016 or 2018 HLR documents for Prince George's County.

So... looks like someone missed the memo/referenced an out of date document with those signs at MD 501.

Looking in the area of the GSV link in the below AARoads Forum post (https://www.google.com/maps/@38.9691016,-76.9841164,3a,75y,219.86h,95.61t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1seP2abe-yAVlDdDIQt3tgkw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192), it looks like the sign for MD 211 south of MD 212 was never removed.

The signs hanging above 501 and the old one near 212 were the only ones I saw. Is it worth checking with MDOT to see why the ones at 501 were installed recently?
