It looks like you are good to move forward on US 6. (despite that people in Cape Cod are still complaining about it)

To take the easy way out, continuing the old CHM "no exit numbers on US Highways" tradition = no-build here. ;)

Based on exit numbers popping up all over NC (US 1, US 29, US 52, US 64, US 70, US 74, etc.), I would say that we have moved on from that rule. Besides, why would US 6 be on the list at the top of the page if you were not planning to convert the points to exit numbers?
yakra:
Because I blindly copied all the route listings from https://www.newmassexits.com/ (hence the cases of 2 routes listed on 1 line) and then rearranged, added links & color coded as reports came in via aaroads that they were coming up for conversion. I never thought about whether it was using the old exit numbers already.
IOW, I guess we can say I did plan to convert it, then when I opened up the route and saw the crossroad labels, it became a lower priority. :)
Nonetheless, you talked me into it:

There will still be US Routes without exit number labels lurking around my states.
Those that still use sequential numbering (e.g. CT US7), or have a could-be-should-be-changed nonsensical numbering scheme that doesn't seem to make sense from either a sequential or mileage-based standpoint (I'm looking at you, TX US75) will not be a priority for conversion.
