Updates to Highway Data / Re: OR: US 97 in Bend
« Last post by mapcat on June 23, 2025, 10:37:17 pm »
The updates entry has a typo (or.us097busbend instead of or.us097busben) which breaks the link.

Updates to Highway Data / UT 228 south end
« Last post by mapcat on June 23, 2025, 10:33:55 pm »
The location of the south end (I-15(22)) is wonky, due to the split placement of the southbound entrance and northbound exit ramps. To me it doesn't seem necessary to have the separate segment south of the CemRd point (just 1PPI it, do a graph connection, and call that point I-15(22)), but if the extra segment truly is important, it seems that it should end where it intersects with the exit ramp. FWIW I-15 only has one point for Exit 22, and all users who have driven UT 228 have clinched it.

Updates to Highway Data / NY: NY147 point request

I suggest Bolt Rd both to break up a long segment and because it's a useful turn for someone cutting across from 147 over to Glenridge Road and points east (like I did today, for example).

Updates to Highway Data / Re: KY 9 relocated intersections

Thanks. https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/8438


The KY 9/KY 10 junction only moved 100m or so, and I don't think that's enough to warrant an updates entry for moving the point. I created one for the other intersection, and added a point on KY 9 and KY 10 at the former KY 3056 junction and at the spot on KY 3056 where the old route diverged.

I just got back home from a three-week road trip, including two weeks in Canada (my first visit there since 2022). I crossed into Canada from Buffalo NY via the Peace Bridge, and back into the U.S. via BC 21/ID 1 north of Bonners Ferry ID. Both border crossings were quick and painless.

In-between, I traveled through Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan (spent less than a day there, only on Trans-Canada 16), Alberta, a side trip to the Northwest Territories, and southeastern British Columbia. I spent several days in the Winnipeg area, including for a road meet there.

I re-clinched TCH routes in Ontario (relocation of TCH/ON 11 in Geraldton) and British Columbia (short extension of TCH Business 1 in Chase). I'm still missing part of TCH (Main) in eastern Quebec, where the route is being relocated onto new Autoroute 85 segments I expect to cover later in 2025 or 2026.

The wildfire smoke was annoying, but only one road I had wanted to travel was fully closed while I was there, short Manitoba provincial road 312. It got more interesting in Alberta, north of Edmonton. Both highways between Edmonton and the Northwest Territories were subject to on-and-off wildfire closures. Alberta 35 between Manning and Paddle Prairie was just barely open when I drove it, with low-level flames visible within a few feet of the edge of pavement near Twin Lakes. On my way back from the Northwest Territories, I instead took Alberta 88 south toward Edmonton. That highway was passable, with heavy smoke in the Loon Lake area. But with evacuations of most of that area's residents, all but one of the local gas stations were closed. With no other gas stations in about 250 miles between Fort Vermilion and Slave Lake, I was getting nervous about my fuel supply, so I was lucky to find that station open.

Other highlights of my travels:

-- Traveling the two-hour Chi-Cheemaun auto ferry from Tobermory ON to Manitoulin Island, connecting the two segments of ON 6. I had hoped to clinch ON 6 as well, but a few km through Fergus were closed.

-- Finally clinching the new NT 9 between NT 3 and the Tlicho village of Whati, thereby re-clinching the cannt system. The highway was opened during the Covid-19 pandemic, when the Northwest Territories were essentially off-limits to non-residents, and it took me awhile to get back up there.

-- Re-visiting Vulcan AB ("Star Trek Capital of Canada") during the annual Spock Days festival.

-- On the way back home, diving down to southwestern Virginia to clinch the short (but extension in progress) US 121 near Grundy.
