Title: GA: GA 14 Spur LaGrange Truncated
Post by: kjslaughter on February 14, 2022, 06:48:49 pm

I was driving through LaGrange today to clinch GA 14 Spur and discovered it has been shortened.  It now stops at US 27 and does not extend to GA 219.  Attached picture showing end at US 27.

I just noticed that the UBigSprRd is too long (https://travelmapping.net/devel/manual/wayptlabels.php#truncate) and needs to be shortened.

If the cross road name has more than 3 words, use one of three 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.
3. Use initials only besides the road type: Martin Luther King Boulevard becomes MLKBlvd, University of California Santa Barbara Boulevard becomes UCSBBlvd.

In this case, I would recommend going with option 1 and dropping the word "Upper" (so, BigSprRd). That's what GDOT did on I-185. (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.0067092,-84.953709,3a,40.5y,36.59h,91.52t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sOG2bkFR3z7B8UrQuqEbPbg!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)
