Title: usaca: California State Highways
Post by: oscar on February 04, 2016, 01:46:00 am
Prior discussion of this in-dev system is on the AARoads forum at http://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=16761.0  Links to the route files (some very rough) in the system are at http://tm.teresco.org/devel/hb.php?sys=usaca

Current status: I just finished updates of all the state's Interstate and US routes. As I munch through the state routes to update them, I can copy revised waypoints from the updated I- and US routes to synch them with the state routes. I've already done this with CA 299, a major route where I've done the kind of updating that will be done for other state routes.

First, though, two steps before I turn to revising the state routes, and getting them ready for review:

-- Replacing the placeholder files for some of the routes added to the draft system that was in CHM, including CA 59 and a bunch of business routes I found. The placeholders map to a short route in a Russian city, which is good to flag their "placeholder" status but creates other issues such as a map of usaca routes that reaches to the other side of the globe. So I'll replace them with real route files.

-- Figuring out how to deal with relinquishments, a discussion started at AARoads. This gives me headaches every time I dive into it, to work out a consistent approach on how to treat them. Complicating this is the disappearance, for some of the older relinquishments, of the continuation signage local jurisdictions were supposed to maintain on the roads they took over from CalTrans (the presence of such signage was something I thought might justify ignoring most of the relinquishments).

===============

Here's a partial summary including links. etc. for the sources I'm using for this system and for maintaining already-active Interstate and US routes in CA, besides the usual resources applicable to other U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions such as OSM and Google Maps Street View. This list can be moved into a replacement for the Sources and Links (http://cmap.m-plex.com/docs/sources.php) page on the CHM website.

My latest pull request should have (I'll need to double-check) replaced all the route set's "placeholder" files with real route files. That means the route set can be mapped, without having the map veer off into St. Petersburg, Russia.

This was one issue that had ruled out moving usaca from in-dev to preview status. But I wouldn't do that just yet. There are still major routes requiring reroutes or other significant work, as well as lesser routes needing various levels of polish-up. Also, I need to work out how to deal with route relinquishments, though I've already truncated the routes (like CA 14U and CA 54) that most clearly needed to be shortened. To my mind, usaca shouldn't graduate to preview status until it's ready for peer review, which it isn't.

I'm still gradually updating the existing route files. But a note on my overhaul of the most "heavyweight" route file in usaca and maybe in all of TM, for the 700-mi+ and often curvy CA 1 coastal route:

Old file: 48.6K, with 735 waypoints (448 visible, 287 hidden)
Svelte new file: 24.6K, with 369 waypoints (330 visible, 39 hidden)

Once I get the new file uploaded (still trying to fix my GitHub setup), it will definitely lose the heavyweight route file title. New leader might be the main BC BC97 route file, at about 42K for a 1300-mi+ route (not counting the northern end which zigzags several times into and out of Yukon Territory).

Yes, as unsigned except as "To CA 210" or "To I-215" (callbox codes and postmiles not enough for our purposes). I checked it out pretty thoroughly when I was out there in February, in hopes of hanging on to it, but no joy.

All the exit numbers that we currently have all the way up to 5 need to be reentered.  Exit numbering starts @ 2, not 1 since it's exit numbers continue from I-980 mileage.

While I'm thinking about it, I'm sure https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/ would be of some help.

I haven't yet used the Postmile Query Tool, but it seems to be a useful supplement to the old 2002 paper route logs, and the more recent online bridge logs (more up-to-date, but less complete, than the paper logs). It might be especially useful for any new or extended state routes, though lately Caltrans has been shedding mileage much more rapidly than adding new mileage.

Next step -- and possibly the main thing to be done before getting the system to "preview" status where users can at least tentatively map their travels -- is getting on top of all the recent partial route relinquishments, and developing an approach to dealing with them that minimizes chopping up routes into little pieces, so we can more or less settle what gets mapped in TM. That is a headache, especially since local jurisdictions that are supposed to maintain continuation signage when they take over relinquished route segments, often don't. Now that my own extensive travels are winding down for this year, I'll have more time to resume work on that.

While I'm thinking on this, I can understand why CA 259 got removed from the project, but if I may argue for its inclusion on the basis it has its own independent exit (Highland Ave), I would.

One thing that you could do for those relinquished sections would be to just have points on either end of the relinquishment.  I know it isn't conventional, but for those towns/cities that don't maintain the signage it keeps anyone from having to basically look at the mapping site for the route before or while they are traversing through to be able to say good enough for a clinch as long as they come out in the right place on the other end.  Then a traveler doesn't have to worry about if they missed a block or turn and you don't have to worry about if roads are cut off or turned into one ways.

It almost would be nice if there was the idea that Jeff had about being able to minus a road segment so that it wouldn't be mapped, or counted in stats.  Changing the file structure to have a - in front of a road segment would be easy.  Coming up with the code and logic on the back end to implement it is what would be the hard part.

If I'm reading this right, you're suggesting using clinch points at the nearest major intersection outside the town the highway's relinquished in, and no clinch points at all within said town, only shape points as needed?

That is one way it could be implemented.  I kind of left the exactly how to implement it up to the system contributors, like you.  You could use the first intersection inside the limits if that was preferred.  Or you could be more exacting that the route ends at the city limits and use that as a point, I know more outside the box thinking since nobody can turn there but is how other states may have a state route start/end although it doesn't appear on the other side of town for them most of the time.

Then if you want to have shape points you could to be more traditional and make the route look like it goes through town purposefully.  If you wanted to be more out of box thinking however you could not have them, which may look strange if a line crosses town not seeming to follow any particular path.  It really isn't much different from some curvy/turning route through a town that doesn't use any/many shape points or intersection waypoints somewhere else that is already mapped visually though.  That could be confusing to a user though trying to figure out how to get across town too.

Just trying to throw an idea out there, maybe it is helpful maybe it isn't, but it may trigger that "Why didn't I think of that?" moment of some slightly different implementation/idea.

A feature that might be useful here would be to allow points in separate .wpt files that are "connected up" in a _con.csv entry to be used for starting and ending points of a segment in a user list.  I've always thought it would make sense to be able to say I traveled all of I-90 by listing a waypoint in Boston and an endpoint in Seattle.  That takes some work, both in resolving conflicting labels and in augmenting the code that marks segments as traveled for a user, but I think it's doable (next summer) if it's a priority.  However, to date the _con.csv has only been used to connect up a single route that crosses regions.  Here, we seem to be talking about bringing together discontiguous segments that have the same designation, and in some sense form a single route, albeit with gaps.

While that would make sense for CA 1, I don't think it would for say, the Dakotas' 1804 and 1806, which are physically discontinuous as opposed to victims of relinquishments and signing apathy.

Right - things like this are also pretty common and I would want those to remain separate routes.

I suppose the question if how is the continuation signage supposed to be maintained?  If it's supposed to be "CA X [direction]", then I would handle it like the town/city/county maintained portion of NY touring routes (and US routes and similar systems in other states) and just include them.  If TO banners are supposed to be used, then it becomes more complicated, and I would probably be inclined to break them up.

New ramps from NB CA-905 to NB CA-125 opened today.


So, this should mean that CA-125 should be extended south from it's current end, plus all the points for CA-11, CA-905, & CA-125's interchange should all be centered together or however you see fit.  This also includes the one active route, Future I-905's file.

Post by: oscar on November 30, 2016, 07:45:15 pm
Weird that the southbound ramps from CA 125 to CA (Fut I-) 905  won't be built until 2018.

I'll go ahead and make the changes soon. But I'll first try to get a better fix on the exact center of the 905/125/11 interchange once the SB connectors are completed, so I won't have to re-center in 2018.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: oscar on December 19, 2016, 09:51:43 pm
In addition to the CA 11/125/905 updates, I've just made a bunch of other changes to usaca routes, as another way to procrastinate on Christmas shopping. Many were to clear to-do list items on this forum and the old CHM forum. But I've also started on legislative relinquishments of state route segments to local governments.

The easiest ones were route-end truncations, at the west end of CA 2 in Santa Monica, east end of CA 74 in Palm Desert, south end of CA 144 in Santa Monica, and CA 170 south of the US 101/CA 134 inrerchange. In those cases, even though state law requires the jurisdiction taking over a relinquished segment to maintain signage pointing motorists to the continuation of the route, there is no (or almost no) such signage. Signage on Caltrans-maintained intersecting roads also ignores those (former) state route designations. The above truncations are just the ones I have traveled or confirmed on GMSV. I expect there will be others, given generally uneven compliance with the continuation-signage law.

Mid-route relinquishments cause more heartburn since they split routes (some into multiple pieces). I'm not sure how to handle those, though maybe bhemphill's suggestion could work for at least the shorter gaps. But I did split CA 111 into separate Calexico and Palm Springs segments, to reflect a long stretch of relinquished mileage from Cathedral City to Indio. Most of the relinquished segment has minimal continuation signage (only "Highway 111" street blades). But travelers need to make a turn in Indio onto Golf Center Parkway to follow the relinquished segment to the rest of CA 111, and there is no longer any signage indicating that. For many other mid-route relinqushments, travelers can simply continue on the same road to get from one non-relinquished segment to another, even with poor or no continuation signage. They can't do that here, so I'm comfortable with splitting at least this route.

BTW, CA 111's south end is defined legislatively at the Mexican border. But the Federales used eminent domain to take the south end from Caltrans, to facilitate expansion of the Calexico port of entry, and the HB reflects that small truncation.

That might confuse people into thinking you have to cross the border to clinch the route (if they're as fussy as me), even where the actual route end is north of the last U-turn before the border, as appears to be the case for the Calexico POE.

In that situation, is there a better label than "End" for an endpoint at the north port of entry boundary? (Same applies to CA 7's south endpoint, except its last U-turn opportunity is at the north POE boundary.)

BTW, the other California routes ending at ports of entry (I-5, CA 905, CA 188, CA 186) appear to end exactly at the border, so MEX/USA or BC/CA are correct for them.

Fair enough.

*Should* we call the actual route end north of the last U-turn before the border, though?
If I understand correctly, the southernmost (truncated) bits were just truncated due to a change in (ownership, maintenance, what-have-you) jurisdiction (Caltrans -> Los Federales). The "end is defined legislatively at the Mexican border" bit is the sticking point for me. Thinking of the countless cases of jurisdiction changes (state vs municipal for example) here...

While I'm still recovering from eye surgery (hope that'll be complete by the end of this month), I'm looking ahead to additional work needed to push this system to preview.

One task is to identify and remove additional unsigned routes. Candidates for that include CA 109, CA 17 Business (Scotts Valley), CA 99 Business (Chico), and CA 174 Business (Colfax). Any comments on those, or others I should be reviewing?

A second is to make the more obvious removals of relinquished mileage on existing routes. Right now, I would keep focusing on end-of-route relinquishments, rather than ones that would break a route in two or more (additional) pieces. Also, completely relinquished routes (as seems likely for CA 187, if it hasn't happened already), which I would treat as decommissioned even though there is a technical difference between "relinquished" and "decommissioned". To my mind, we can put this system into preview without first resolving how we handle mid-route relinquishments like several on CA 1. so long as I've cut back on what peer reviewers would be looking at.

Related to the above is taking a deep dive into cahighways.org and the Pacific Southwest board on the aaroads.com forum, to get caught up with the latest changes and older changes I missed.

I did some of the above over the weekend. Based on that review, I'll be removing from the Highway Browser CA99Bus (Chico), CA109, CA110 (San Pedro), and CA187. The first has no signage on the CA 99 mainline, though some markers remain on the locally-maintained (former) business route, so it seems Caltrans is treating the business route as decommissioned. CA 109 and CA 110 (San Pedro) appear to be completely unsigned. Caltrans and the city of Los Angeles have agreed to terms of relinquishment for all of CA 187, and if the relinquishment hasn't happened already, it probably will very soon. Other routes that I had targeted for removal turned out to be at least minimally signed at their junctions with other routes.

I've also edited some other files to address the most important Datacheck issues, such as duplicate labels, that would get in the way of TM mapping user travels. More work will need to be done, especially on the headachy issue of addressing the remaining relinquishments. But I think the system will be more or less in as good a shape as other systems that have gone into preview, and usaca can go there too, so users can start at least preliminarily mapping their travels.

One of the many remaining tasks will be to finish synching up state routes with each other and I- and US routes. I've synched up many of the major state routes, and some of the minor ones. Until the rest are done, TM might not automatically credit users for routes concurrent with the state routes in their list files. Also, as with any preview system, updates that may break your list file may be made without notice, so keep an eye on your error log.

For those of you updating your list files for your California state route travels, CA 58 has a new expressway segment on a new alignment, a few miles from its east end. The east endpoint and the exit preceding it have new labels (for example, 241 -> I-15) since I was unable to confirm the exit numbers for them in the route file.

I'll be doing other cleanup on CA 58, and if time permits also CA 166, before moving the system to preview, so that we have a few more major west-east routes synched up with the major north-south routes I've already more or less finalized. More of that will need to be done for other routes, while usaca is in preview.

As I assemble usaca additions to my list file (I notice some of you have already done that, and have claimed mileage on the system), I'm reminded that some minor and urban routes have not been re-done since they were first drafted many years ago, when things like waypoint spacing and labeling were done differently. In general, most of the major north-south and west-east routes have been redone, like the Interstates and US routes were re-done awhile ago, and should be in near-final form. Shorter and especially urban non-freeway routes (the ones which Caltrans seemingly yearns to remove from the state highway system), not so much.  Also, some unsigned routes remain, like the short CA 710 stub in Pasadena (which I forgot to include in my latest route removals) and CA 244 in Sacramento, and will need to be addressed later. There are some other routes that have almost no route signage, like CA 262 north of San Jose, which remain in the Highway Browser.

Comments at this stage are welcome, even if some of them will remind me of things I already know. A more systematic review can wait until I do some more work on the system. But in the meantime, you'll be able to map your California state route travels.

While updating my list file, I caught a gruesome error on CA 140, where I accidentally truncated the route to end well west of Yosemite NP. The actual end is at the park boundary. I'll fixed the file accordingly, and will submit it in a pull request later today or tomorrow.

Also, quickie truncations of CA 83's north end, and CA 91's west end.

Glad to see this system in preview status even though my % clinched in CA drop from 62 to 31. ;) I don't mind adding over 2000 miles to my totals overnight.  ;D

Here are a couple things I noticed at first glance. By no means a comprehensive review even of just the routes I've traveled.

CA16: Broken concurrncy with I-5BLWoo between waypoints 59 and 63 (looks like I-5BLWoo could be missing a waypoint)
CA16: Seems to be a broken concurrency with I-5 near the Sacramento Airport. Looks like the problem is between waypoints 67 and 80
CA45: Waypoint 33 should probably be named CA20_E, not CA20_S (waypoint 43 is labeled CA20_W)
CA60: Broken concurrency with I-15 between waypoints #60 and #67 (named 53 and 58)
CA78: Broken concurrency between waypoints 39 and 44 (named CA79_N and CA79_S)
CA79: Broken concurrency with CA78 between waypoints 31 and 44 (see above)

That's all I can think of for the moment. I'll keep my eyes open for others.

Great job getting this system into preview.

Your exit labeling for CA99 in Sacramento is inconsistent with other routes.  It seems you used <Exit#>(Route#) where Route Number did not specify system (I, US ,CA)  For example you used  525B(50) instead of US50(525B).  Might want to check for consistency

DISCLAIMER: I was lazy to check if the standard was changed, though if that would be the case I'd have more errors than what the log shows me.

Thanks for getting this system ready. I noticed a couple minor things from my maps:

CA1 & CA68: concurrency not showing in Monterey
CA16 & I-5BLWoo concurrency not showing in Woodland
CA49: CA4 & CA4Bus_E points are out of order, causing the sharp angle error

On the broken concurrencies -- like what's going on now in Oregon, that happens when one of the concurrent routes was redone and the other hasn't been redone yet. Those will be fixed before the system goes active. There are a few spots where a broken concurrency between an active route and a usaca preview route seems to be triggering Datacheck errors for the former, and those will be the first to be fixed. The others will take awhile.

On exit numbers, as SSOWorld noted some exits are in [exit number]([route number]) format, while others are in [route number]([exit number]) format. We were moving to the former, but I'm getting uneasy about it, and am inclined to move everything in California to the latter format (preserving the old waypoint labels only for routes in active systems like I- and US routes). One reason for my concern is that it creates a jarring difference between the labels where one route intersects another (label uses the route number of the cross road, followed by the exit number if needed -- sometimes the exit number is there but isn't needed, which will be cleanup when I redo the route) and where routes overlap and one or both routes have exit numbers (which, per the newer standard, label uses the exit number followed by the route number).

I'll put fixes for mapcat's comments on CA 1 in Cambria and CA49 in Angel Camp in my next update.

The CHM guidelines say "In multiplexes where the concurrency uses exit numbers from the other highway, put the highway number in parentheses. ... For non-exit-numbered routes concurrent with a numbered, exit-numbered route, use the concurrent highway designation with the exit numbers in parentheses." Don't all of California's freeways have exit numbers now (or are in the process of getting them)? If exit numbers can be assumed to be universal, I don't think there's a situation where [route number](exit number) is needed anymore.

Until recently, exit numbers were rare in California (a byproduct of postmiles resetting at county lines, so there was postmile duplication for the longer freeways, and exit numbers couldn't be assigned on that basis). Now they are more common, but there are still many freeways that don't have them.

I can't see the benefit of creating a I-123(456) waypoint for CA789 now, knowing that it will probably need to change to 456(123) when the non-concurrent exits on CA789 get exit numbers.

That assumes that the non-concurrent part of CA 789 is a freeway, that might some day get its own exit numbers. Usually it's not a freeway, and probably never will be. For example, CA 166, for which I cleaned up and synched the route file a few days ago, which is mostly a mountain two-lane, and its only concurrency with a freeway (US 101 in Santa Maria) got US101(nnn) waypoints for the several exits on that segment (two of them were previously labeled US101_N and US101_S rather than with their newly-signed exit numbers).

I think that the rule book was a directive from CHM webmaster Tim, that never got followed consistently. While the rulebook practice has its virtues (shorter waypoint names, mainly), especially for existing waypoints ISTM that it should be up to the team member.

Regarding route overlap exit numbers, I've always preferred the I-123(456) format over the 456(123) format. The former's always felt... cleaner and clearer.

Hidden point request for California Street in San Francisco on CA 1. Never made it through the Presidio on CA 1 between Golden Gate Park and US 101.
CA 2's overlap on US 101 should use 101's exit numbers, not cross-streets; even if cross-streets were used, US101_N and US101_S are reversed.
CA 14 Trk being assigned to the I-5 Trk in Newhall Pass...?
CA 23's overlap on US 101 should use 101's exit numbers.

Some observations from routes 1-50 (and 113). I'm by no means looking thru things exhaustively.

CA1: I-280 concurrency broken
CA12: I-80 concurrency broken (Heh. Anagrams!)
CA13: The only point I'd really nix from the non-freeway portion is ColAve. The rest are justifiable on Nearby Interchange grounds.
CA14TrkNew: Wait, is this for real?
CA16: I-80BL concurrency broken

CA41:
ElCamReal -> CamReal, on Leave-out-the-definite-article grounds. Or perhaps, helped out by the shape of the interchange, fold it into the US101 point due to 1PPI.
CA46_S -> CA46_W; CA46_N -> CA46_E

CA47: Recently truncated, I see, compared to what's on CHM (http://cmap.m-plex.com/hb/hwymap.php?r=ca.ca047). Looks extra goofy along with CA103 now. But that's Caltrans's fault...
CA113: I-80 concurrency broken

-----

Don't know if other plexes, E.G. I-15/CA18, may be affected. These are just a few items that should show up on the HB when u=yakra. :)
There are enough broken plexes, from what I've seen combined with what others have reported, to make it worth a look-thru, IMO. Perhaps a look around in the HDX...

Labels on multiplex splits also may be worth a look-thru.

As I suggested above, ignore broken concurrencies for now. They should gradually disappear as additional routes are finalized.

CA14TrkNew is an interesting story. It's a separate and non-parallel alignment of I-5, so truckers avoid the CA 14/I-210 clusterfork. Basically, it's signed as Truck Route I-5/CA 14, but since it isn't officially a separate Interstate route, I opted to label it as a CA 14 branch. Caltrans' route logs call it route 5S, but it isn't signed as such. Also, CA 14U, doesn't connect to the I-5 mainline except through the truck route  (yes, there are 14U markers in the field, an interesting story in itself).I'm open to suggestions about what to do with CA14Trk, including rename or deletion.

Directional suffixes like CA 46_S and _E confuse me, so it helps me for people to point out mismatches. There are more.

I think the story with CA 47 is that Caltrans has plans to extend it northward, and is legislatively authorized to do so (most of the legislative route is considered "unconstructed" due to the road in that corridor not meeting state highway standards), but I'll have to confirm that later.

I believe I had drafted what you have as CA 14 Truck as I-5 Truck, and a separate CA 14 Truck connecting CA 14 to I-5 Truck back when I first drafted usaca.
Whether the proper CA 14 Truck is included or not is up to you (I'd include it), but I do think I-5 Truck should stay (preferably as I-5 Truck) because of the exit to CA 14U.

Which, on a related note, I need to ask: CA 259 was removed because it's completely unsigned as such, correct? It's an odd reason, considering it has its own independent exit between its termini with I-215 and CA 210, and as a connector route, is on par with Delta Hwy (Lane CR 1740, according to OSM), which is included in the Oregon set. I think it's a viable candidate for inclusion, despite lack of signage, for that reason. That, and because I've clinched it of course. (I don't think entering it into the set as the northernmost segment of the San Bernardino Freeway is useful, as then you'd have to include the entire SBd Freeway, though that would finally cover out the segment between US 101 and I-5...)

What you had as CA 14 Truck is just a pair of ramps between the truck route alongside I-5 and the CA 14 mainline. Caltrans doesn't treat it as a separate route. I treat the ramps as just part of larger CA 14/I-5/truck route interchange.

CA 56 has a segment east of I-15 that probably shouldn't be there. The bridge logs don't have it (http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/structur/strmaint/brlog/logpdf/logd11.pdf) and the postmile query tool cuts off just east of the interchange (https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/PMQT/PostmileQueryTool.html?)

It's probably included in TM since legislatively the route goes all the way to 67, but I don't think that any part of the city-maintained part of Ted Williams Parkway was ever added to the state highway system.

A pending update will fix the out-of-order points for CA 49 in Angels Camp, spotted by mapcat. Also, CA 56 will be truncated back to I-15 -- the freeway extends a little east of I-15, but not as a state highway. The long CA 20 should be in final form, hopefully removing one of the broken concurrencies with an active route that showed up as an active-routes Datacheck error.

One question about CA 49, which I'm still finalizing (but a partial update is pending) -- there is a lot of confusion about its routing in the I-80 area, especially in Mapnik/OSM. The pending update has CA 49 intersecting I-80 only at exit 119B, with no concurrency to exit 119C, as indicated by Caltrans' April 2017 bridge log for I-80. Those of you familiar with the area, please comment on whether I got the routing right.  EDIT: The CA 49 update in the I-80 area is in the HB. As I finished work on the rest of the file, I made another change to CA 49s routing in the I-80, which includes a short multiplex with I-80 between exits 119B and 119C. That revision will be in my next pull request, as well as the rest of my edits to the northern part of CA 49.

Also, a note on the next update, which will affect the west end of CA 178's Shoshone segment, for the four users (besides me) who've clinched the route. The west endpoint is currently labeled DeaValNP. The next update will relabel that point End, and add a new DeaValNP point at the park boundary. This is a case where the state highway was there first, then the park expanded, including part of the state highway but not taking it away from Caltrans.

EDIT: One more -- the CA 168 route file will have relabels at both its west and east ends, some other exit numbers near its west end, and some intermediate waypoints. Online mapping is particularly confusing on road names, so I had to use GMSV to sort out name conflicts. That updated route file is also in my queue, for later today.

Yeah, I saw the signs, which caused me heartburn when I reluctantly decided to split the route at Grant Grove. The legislative definition is not as clear as for CA 120, but Caltrans' view is that CA 180 officially ends at one side of Grant Grove, and resumes (along with its postmiles, which are absent from Grant Grove) on the other side before its final end at Cedar Grove.

Yes. There's also some zigzagging along a county line just west of the Grant Grove segment of the park, but IIRC Caltrans overlooks that to keep the postmiles in sequence.

If you're asking whether the postmiles in the Cedar Grove section say something about whether the non-postmiled road through Grant Grove is counted as part of CA 180 ... good question to which I don't yet have an answer. But I plan to be back up there in a few days, and will try to nail that down.

Also while I'm out here, I'll have to look at the backs of some route markers, to see if there are any stickers indicating who posted the markers and when, like I've seen in other states. The CA 180 markers within the national park look authentic from the front (unlike the obviously fake markers in Yosemite NP), but there are no stickers on the back.

I had originally put two Kings Canyon Road segments in usanp, one in Grant Grove (between the two CA 180 segments) and one in Cedar Grove (at the east end of the eastern CA 180 segment). The Grant Grove segment needs to be restored to usanp. Its route file ca.kincanrd_gra.wpt seems to be still in the master, so it's just a matter of editing the usanp .csv file to add back in that file, and make clear that there are separate Grant Grove and Cedar Grove segments of that road in usanp.

Also, the north endpoint of Generals Highway (part of which is in Kings Canyon NP) is incorrectly labeled CA180, and needs to be changed to KinCanRd.

I couldn't find postmiles near the boundaries of the Grant Grove section of the national park. But I've done the next best thing, using the Caltrans Postmile Query Tool (https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/PMQT/PostmileQueryTool.html) (something I need to use more often). Clicking on various parts of Kings Canyon Rd, within Grant Grove, it takes you to the nearest postmile location outside the park. It shows the last postmile before entering the park from the west is TUL 110.553 (in Tulare County). The first postmile exiting the park to the north (on the way to the park's Cedar Grove unit) is FRE 112.09 (in Fresno County). The section of the road within Grant Grove is about four miles long, so it looks like the brief exit of CA 180 from Fresno County to Tulare County and back again might interrupt the postmile sequence.

Post by: oscar on July 27, 2017, 09:53:46 pm
Most relevant to the active usaib and usausb systems, but also affecting some usaca routes: I've noticed that some of the on-freeway business route signage I remember in northern California seems to have been removed. This may be a district-by-district thing, mainly in Caltrans districts 1 and 2, but maybe also part of district 3 (signage for I-5BL Woodland seems to still be there, at least on I-5 SB). The ones I have in mind are the I-5BLs in Red Bluff, Dunsmuir, Weed, and Yreka, and the US 101 business routes in Ukiah, Rio Dell, and McKinleyville, though there might be others with removed signage I didn't notice.

Some of the GMSV imagery is about a decade old, and so is pretty useless. But I'll be flying back to Sacramento next week to resume my mega-cross country road trip. This half of the trip will be more relaxed than the first part, so I'll have time to do more complete field checks of business routes (as well as of other usaca routes) to try to nail this down.

Also, as I go through files for revisions, one change I'll be making throughout will be to relabel numbered/lettered county roads. The major ones are called "County Highways" (per a state law authorizing county highway systems), signed with blue pentagon shields. Most of them have labels beginning with CH. Then there are lesser county roads, which usually have no route markers and are signed on street blades or otherwise as "Road ___". Many of them have labels starting with CR (as do a few CHs which I relabeled in error). As I come across them, I'll be changing CR___ labels, generally to either Rd___ or CH____.

I'll be doing fixes on a few usaca routes (mainly to fix NMPs/broken concurrences and otherwise finalize), so  far including CA 12, CA 16, CA 32, CA 36, CA 44, CA 72 (west end truncated to Pico Rivera eastern city limit), CA 113, CA 116, CA 121, CA 169 (Weitchpec segment -- an long and unpleasant one-lane highway I clinched last week), CA 188, CA 211, CA 254, CA 255, and CA 299, before I return to California. Much work will remain to be done after my return home, and the eye surgery and recovery to follow.

The routes that were already finalized include at least: 1, 3 (pending addition of waypoint to concurrence with CA 299 in Weaverville), 4, 7, 9, 11, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20, 24, 35, 41, 46, 47, 49 (with pending CR label fixes), 58, 62, 70, 74, 78, 79, 86, 88 (with pending label fix), 89 (both segments), 99 and its business routes, 111 (both segments), 115, 120 (both segments), 138, 140, 144, 154, 158. 165, 166, 167, 168 (both segments), 170, 173 (both segments), 177, 178 (Shoshone segment), 180 (both segments), 182, 190 (both segments), 202, 203, 207, 227, 236, 237, 253, 266, 270, 330, and 905. Some label fixes and other updates may be needed. But for the most part their waypoint coordinates are settled, and I'll use coordinates from those routes and the long-finalized Interstate and US main and business routes to update the remaining state routes and synch them up with already-finalized routes.

I'm avoiding the LA and SF metro areas in my current travels, and probably will do them last when I update the usaca routes. LA, especially, has a lot of headachy relinquishments, and seems to be the area where Caltrans is trying to move surface streets out of the state system, so state routes in that region will be a bit of a moving target.

AFAIK, the exit-numbers-on-concurrencies situation has stayed the same since the end of CHM, with the exception that we've moved to allow US Routes to optionally use their own exit numbers where appropriate (which may not apply in these cases?)
I'll not rehash the guidelines again right here just yet, at risk of inadvertently causing more confusion than I might clear up. (Seems there's always been some trouble understanding it.

Oscar, can you point me to some examples in the HB of routes concurrent with CA99 where this could come into play & maybe cause some confusion?

CA 99's southern junction with I-5 follows route number (exit number) format, while its overlaps with I-5 and US50/I-80BL/I-305 in Sacramento are in exit number(route number) format.  I wouldn't call those "confusing", but they are inconsistenet formats within a single route file.

Just used some downtime (while still in California) for a pull request covering a batch of usaca changes. Some are minor label and point tweaks, including one to ca.i080 to match with updates to CA 193. Here are the more significant other changes.

CA65Ros -- finally updated file to reflect major relocation (bypass of Lincoln) from a few years ago, between exit 314 (Lincoln Blvd.) to *OldCA65 near Wheatland. No indication that the old route has become a business route. Also, 334 => CA70 (merge at northern end of this segment has no exit number, neither signed in the field nor assigned by Caltrans).

CA70BusOro -- north end changed to reflect signage (and an old Caltrans route log) indicating the business route follows Nelson Ave. rather than Garden Dr. back to CA 70.

CA84Rio -- north end truncated to southern city limit of West Sacramento; ferry crossing points north of Rio Vista to Ryer Island renamed. I am disinclined to split that route, and CA 220 (also serving Ryer Island), at their very short ferry crossings, both of which are free and take just a few minutes, even though we normally split routes at ferry crossings. AFAIK, those are the only two ferry crossings on the state highway system, both served by Caltrans-operated vessels.

CA160 -- south end extended one exit to new junction with the relocated CA 4; 1C => 1B (no signed exit number, but Caltrans has assigned 1B as its exit number); otherwise finalized, except for the part within Sacramento south of the American River.

I will likely later split this route in two, with the southern Rio Vista segment ending at Sacramento's southern city limit (SacLim) and the North Sacramento Freeway in its own segment. The relinquished segment within Sacramento has no Caltrans signage referring to it as part of CA 160 (indeed, there is an End CA 160 sign at Sacramento's southern city limit), nor is there locally-maintained continuation signage as required by state law (this in Caltrans' backyard! such state law requirements for relinquished route segments seem to be widely ignored). The old CA 160 route through Sacramento requires motorists to make two turns (northbound) or four (southbound), with no clues on how to make those turns to continue on CA 160. I'm reluctant to split routes for relinquishments, but this seems a particularly good case for a route split.

CA162Oro -- finalized, with tweaks to both endpoints (western one renamed and moved a little to MenNFLim, at the forest's eastern boundary; eastern one renamed to intersecting road ForCrkRd, rather than the unsiged continuation of Oroville-Quincy Highway).

CA168Bis -- west end moved about a half-mile east and renamed, to reflect the End sign and pavement change at the Sabrina Campground entrance short of road's end at the boat launch on Lake Sabrina. EDIT: This change isn't yet in the HB, will be added in my next route file update.

CA193 -- finalized, with the west end truncated at Lincoln's east city limit; also, some waypoints for junctions with CA 49 have been relabeled. This one I'm also inclined to split in two, with no signage directing motorists to follow I-80 and CA 49 between CA 193's Lincoln and Georgetown segments. I'm generally OK with implied multiplexes over just one route, but not ones like this requiring motorists to make the connection over two or more routes with no help from signs.

The ice bridges were important to Tim, which meant you could drive across the rivers on NT 8 in the winter (even if by ferries most of the rest of the year).

I propose departing from Tim's rule, to allow team members discretion to not break up routes for short ferry crossings (as I think has already been done here and there in other US states, somehow slipping past Tim). That would not apply in Alaska, where the ferry trips linking AK 7 segments take at least two hours. It could be applied to YT 6, though I think combining its two segments would be more work than it's worth, considering that I'm the only user to have driven that route.

This could warrant its own discussion, but if not merging routes via short ferry crossings, it could be worth starting a ferry system then.
That would be notably AK 7 and the Marine Highway, the Washington SR ferries and 'SR 407', and US 10 across Lake Michigan, off the top of my head. Internationally, a case could be made for Dover-Calais...?

Hm. If I were starting that system from scratch, I might look into breaking such routes. Just commenting though; this has been a done deal AFAIC, and isn't worth revisiting.

As for ferries, my opinion is that we should stick with the guideline about breaking up routes with ferries, at least when drafting new systems.

All I'm aware of personally are CT148 and CT160, both of which predate the split-up-ferry-routes dictum, I believe.
Despite my previous comment, at the same time I've never been in a hurry to break these up. Looking at these now, both of their ferry segments are clinched by 2/3 of their travelers. I don't feel like breaking .list files. Still in no hurry. :)

Perhaps a "Break them for new routes, but OK to grandfather existing routes in" rule of thumb?

I'm very much interested in expanding into ferries, but there seems to be greater interest in first expanding into rail, and I'm OK with that priority.

In any case, I think a separate ferry system is more appropriate for longer routes such as on the Alaska Marine Highway system, than for the itty-bitty ferry routes on CA 84 and CA 220.

Me too. I'm not interested in rail at all but in ferries! Short river ferries and longer sea crossings. However, I don't know how we should draft long routes...

Generally, I think (new) routes should ALWAYS be split if they are interrupted by ferries. No minimum lengths etc. :)

Might as well -- they're a logical extension to highways.

Most relevant to the active usaib and usausb systems, but also affecting some usaca routes: I've noticed that some of the on-freeway business route signage I remember in northern California seems to have been removed. This may be a district-by-district thing, mainly in Caltrans districts 1 and 2, but maybe also part of district 3 (signage for I-5BL Woodland seems to still be there, at least on I-5 SB). The ones I have in mind are the I-5BLs in Red Bluff, Dunsmuir, Weed, and Yreka, and the US 101 business routes in Ukiah, Rio Dell, and McKinleyville, though there might be others with removed signage I didn't notice.

Some followup, now that I've left California -- I found signage for most of the I-/US business routes I thought might be decommissioned. So my concern about mass decommissioning of business routes in northern California proved unfounded.

The only possibly decommissioned routes left on my list are I-5BLWilliams (no BL signage at its junctions with I-5 and CA 20), US101BusUkiah (no signage on US 101, but didn't check its junction with CA 253), and also CA99BusModesto (no signage on CA 99, but still need to check other locations). I'm not pulling the trigger on any of these just yet, pending further review.

For business/bannered routes with questionable/spotty signage that are already in the system, my standards are pretty low for allowing them to soldier on until more info comes in. See US1BusWar (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=1971), NE 2 Bus Grand Island (http://tm.teresco.org/forum/index.php?topic=2190), (or even the questionable truck routes in NY, PA, and elsewhere...)
Sounds as if your philosophy may be similar.

Makes me thankful for how TXDOT is well organized, and for the most part pretty consistent on signage , with their business routes.

Since the OR 39 thread in the update forum affects CA 161, I'll mention it here as well:
ODOT isn't clear where the border actually falls short of sending a survey crew out there. Until we have definitive border definition, I don't believe anything should be done with the end points for CA 139 and OR 39 (CA 161's end point is unaffected here), nor should OR CA161 (essentially the westbound lane of State Line Rd on the eastern segment) be nuked.

Post by: oscar on August 30, 2017, 08:30:34 pm
Not changing CA161 just yet, but here are the major items in the update package for which I'll shortly submit a pull request.

Endpoint and other label fixes

CA 70 and CA 70 (Business): north endpoint now CA70(48B), with exit 48 split in two to reflect that the business route ends at the north half-diamond interchange rather than midway between the north and south half-diamonds.

CA 151: west endpoint moved south from CHA18_N to DamVisCen point at south edge of Shasta Dam visitor center parking lot, where I saw postmile 0.00; CHA18_S => CHA18

CA 162 (Covelo): FH7 => ShoCrkRd (no FH7 signage at CA 162 end; anyway, I prefer intersecting roads/boundaries over continuation road names/numbers, the former better defines where the CA route ends)

CA 168Bis (Bishop): west end truncated to SabCamp

CA 169 (Klamath Glen): east end renamed TerRifRd

CA 191: north end renamed PeaRd

Unsigned routes deleted

CA 222 (Ukiah, to closed state hospital converted to a monastery)

CA 244 (Auburn Blvd. connector in Sacramento)

CA 283 (concurrent with part of US101Bus Rio Dell, which itself hangs on by a thread with just one route marker)

CA 710 (short stub in Pasadena, which South Pasadena residents are aggressively trying to keep disconnected from I-710)

Route splits

CA 84 (Rio Vista): truncated at Ryer Island ferry crossing, with rest of route moved to new ca.ca084rye (Ryer Island)

CA 160: relinquished segment in Sacramento removed, with northern remaining segment now ca.ca160 (North Sacramento), and southern segment now ca.ca160rio (Rio Vista); much of relinquished segment will be covered by well-signed US 40 Historic (Sacramento) route

CA 193: now separate segments, western segment ca.ca193 (Lincoln) and eastern segment ca.ca193geo (Georgetown), with unsigned connection over I-80 and CA 49 removed

CA 220:  split at Ryer Island ferry crossing, with western segment now ca.ca220rye (Ryer Island) and eastern segment now ca.ca220 (Ryer)

@si404 -- new AmeRiv point at south end of CA 160 North Sacramento segment should be added, at least as hidden point, to US 40 Historic (Sacramento) file, to keep the two files synched.

Not sure about whether CA 710 has a name either.

I'm not crazy about either one of these really short routes. The Westside Parkway west of Bakersfield (possible replacement for part of CA 58) would be a much better candidate.

Well, when they were in the HB, some users cared enough about them to include them in their .lists, just like they do short signed routes. All three (including CA 259) have exits, which points to them being more than glorified ramps.

OSM calls erstwhile CA 710 part of the Long Beach Fwy, but it doesn't seem likely that it will ever connect to the rest of that route. I didn't see any signage other than "To" something when I was on it a few weeks ago.

My partial clinch of CA710 was on foot on the roads either side (I worked so hard in the hot early morning September sun for that mile and now all I have to show for it is some crappy photos of diggers and rubble :()

There isn't any 'To' signage northbound - the Freeway Entrance signs heading north are 'EAST I-210' and 'WEST CA134' respectively (ignoring that the first ramp can go west on I-210 and the second ramp can go anywhere - and direction signs show this)

There isn't any signage southbound on the road other than some little gore ones for Del Mar Blvd, and the 'California <s>Blvd</s> END FWY' sign, though To CA110 signs exist on CA134 and I-210.

I was one of the drivers claiming CA 710, and CA 259, mileage before I decided to take them out of the HB. With CA 222, I didn't bother, since I knew it was doomed the moment I clinched it. That really looks like a route Caltrans would like to remove from its inventory, but the legislature and/or the city of Ukiah won't let that happen, preferring the state maintain it for the non-monastery users along the way.

I didn't clinch CA 244 (which really is a glorified set of ramps), even during multiple trips on I-80 east of Sacramento, because I didn't even know it was there until I belatedly spotted it in a Caltrans bridge log. That route file was inherited from Bickendan, and I hadn't done any work on the file (concentrating on the longer routes most in need of finalization, so I could synch other routes to them).

I had also claimed CA 710. In my case, though, I only claimed it once I noticed it was in the HB. I drove it unaware it even had a number, I was there to check out the freeway stub.

I fully agree with the decision to nix it from usaca since it is indeed unsigned.

I could get behind putting it in usasf.

Post by: oscar on October 07, 2017, 01:35:24 am
I just pulled in several route file updates, in southern California mainly in the area east of Los Angeles and between CA 91 and CA 210. Most of the changes are to streamline the route files and re-synch them with intersecting routes. But some routes have new and/or relabeled endpoints, or major mid-route changes, which will affect list files:

CA 60 and CA 71 -- relabeled endpoints, to fix incorrect or unsigned exit numbers

CA 66 -- state legislature truncated east end to I-215

CA 79 -- reroute between San Jacinto and Beaumont

Both CA 66 and CA 79 also have mid-route segments relinquished to local maintenance (and removed from the legislative route definitions), which I am more reluctant to remove from the route files than end-of-route relinquishments that I can just treat as truncations. Those local governments are required to maintain continuation signage, but such requirements seem to be generally treated as a joke. I would nevertheless keep in the route files the relinquished CA 66 segment, and one of the two relinquished CA 79 segments.

For CA 66, and CA 79 in Temecula, I-15's junctions with the relinquished segments still refer to them as part of their respective state routes. The relinquished segment of CA 66 (roughly between TowAve in Pomona and PepAve in Rialto) has no green-spade CA 66 signage on the route itself, but there is a lot of official and unofficial old US 66 signage to guide travelers, and there are no turns to lead travelers astray. The relinquished parts of CA 79 in Temecula between temporary points TemLim(ELim) and TemLim(NLim), and the implied concurrence with I-15, are also fairly easy to follow, despite the missing continuation signage within Temecula city limits other than on the implied concurrence with I-15.

CA 79 in San Jacinto, between MenAve(SanJacSLim) and End(SanJacOldNLim), is another story. Travelers need to make three turns to follow the relinquished segment to the rest of CA 79, and there is no signage at two of those turns (between Ramona Blvd. and State St., and State St. and Ramona Expy) to guide travelers. I was thoroughly confused when I tried to do that in winter 2016, and only after multiple time-wasting passes through San Jacinto was I able to accidentally clinch the relinquished segment. I would break CA 79 in two in San Jacinto: a main segment from Hemet south to I-8 via Temecula and Julian, and a northern segment between San Jacinto and I-10 in Beaumont, with MenAve(SanJacSLim) => MenAve and End(SanJacOldNLim) => End.

EDIT: Another batch of updates to be pulled in, mainly state freeway routes in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. One of those routes, CA 2, includes a mid-route relinquishment I haven't figured out how to handle, so I just polished up the rest of the route in the meantime. This is the section from I-405 east via Beverly Hills to the West Hollywood city limit near La Brea Ave.

Two more batches of updated files have been, or are being, pulled in. This should complete my updates for Caltrans District 11 (San Diego and Imperial Counties), though some other parts of the state are covered as well.

A few changes that won't necessarily be reflected in users' error logs:

-- For CA 94, the exit for CA 15, and the two adjacent exits, were misnumbered. So 2A, 2B, and 2C are now 1D, 2A, and 2B.

-- For CA 163, 11 -> I-15 (no exit number for that merge). Also, south end of route extended one block, from AshSt (still used as a waypoint) to ASt. The southbound lanes clearly end at AshSt. However, the northbound lanes start at ASt, as confirmed by both the route log and Caltrans' online Postmile Query Tool.

Some CA 163 exit numbers are assigned to different exits for each direction, such as southbound 1A for Ash Street (waypoint AshSt) and northbound 1A for I-5 (waypoint 1A). There's similarly dodgy exit numbering elsewhere in San Diego. The route file as originally drafted reasonably resolves those conflicts, so I left those waypoint labels alone.

I'm throwing out for comment an odd situation in the Oakland area. CA 260, which is basically just the Posey and Webster Street underwater tubes between Oakland and Alameda, is signed but only as part of CA 61. CA 112, which connects CA 61 south of the Oakland airport to I-880 and points west, has one CA 112 sign but is also signed as part of CA 61. 

Right now, we have separate route files for CA 112 and CA 260, plus a CA 61 route file for the highway connecting the two (plus some relinquished mileage at the south end of CA 260) which also includes CA 112 and CA 260. I would retain the separate CA 260 route file, and also the CA 61 concurrence with CA 112, to avoid user confusion and also to reflect the presence of both CA 61 and CA 112 signs on CA 112.

But there is a relinquishment gap between CA 260 and the non-concurrent part of CA 61. The legislative route definition of CA 260 truncated that route's south end about eight blocks in Alameda to Atlantic Ave. (the legislature required the city to maintain continuation signage, but as is common that requirement seems to have been treated as a joke). But the END sign for CA 61 at the Central/Webster intersection in Alameda, and Caltrans' route log, make it clear CA 61 does not extend north of that intersection, notwithstanding the CA 61 signage on CA 260. (Actually, the legislative definition for CA 61 has it authorized to cross downtown Oakland to I-580, and also extend well south of CA 112, but those highway segments were never built and probably never will be.)

So I would split the CA 61 route file in two, using the existing filename for most of the route passing by the Oakland airport, but adding ca.ca061pos.wpt (Posey/Webster Tubes) concurrent with and duplicating the CA 260 file.

UPDATE: Pull request #1711 submitted for above changes to CA 61, as well as other route file updates.

I'm continuing my cleanup of usaca routes, including synching them up with the increasing number of finalized routes. I'm down to about 30 routes left, most of them short but including some urban routes with relinquishment issues. I hope to take care of the rest by year's end, to get usaca ready for peer review (in addition to the comments received so far).

In my latest (pending) pull request, I've deleted the completely unsigned CA 25 business route in Hollister. The partially-overlapping CA 156 business route remains, since it appears to be only poorly signed (in a state like California, you can't be too picky about route signage quality).

I also removed from CA 130 to Mt. Hamilton the relinquished segment within San Jose city limits. The relinquished route has no continuation or other route signage, on the route itself or on connecting Interstates. This leaves CA 130 disconnected from the rest of the state highway system.

Let's just say that maintenance is "uneven". But I've not spotted many candidates for deletion from the HB, since there usually is at least a little remnant signage to justify keeping them in the HB. Business routes often fade away as local authorities who maintain most BRs in California lose interest, but it takes awhile.

New BRs seem to be rare, though. For example, the relatively new CA 65 bypass of Lincoln has no business route on the bypassed road, and apparently Lincoln officials didn't ask for one. I've argued on the aaroads forum that they have been largely replaced by passenger-operated smartphones, and logo signage, to help drivers find downtown and other traveler services on their own.

I also removed from CA 130 to Mt. Hamilton the relinquished segment within San Jose city limits. The relinquished route has no continuation or other route signage, on the route itself or on connecting Interstates. This leaves CA 130 disconnected from the rest of the state highway system.
Nice! That means I've clinched it!  ;D

Staying with San Jose, the next batch of route file updates will include CA 82. The part of that route within San Jose, between I-880 and US 101, was relinquished to the city in 2011. GMSV imagery from 2015 or later on I-280, US 101, and CA 87 shows signs for exits to CA 82 within San Jose, and on an exit ramp from NB I-880 showing CA 82 both west and east of I-880. So either Caltrans is being sloppy about updating its signs (not unheard of) or it's treating CA 82 like it still exists in San Jose. However, once you're on the former CA 82 between I-880 and US 101, there appears to be no CA 82 signage (even though state law requires that from the city), and in particular there is no such signage to guide drivers in either direction through the four turns required to stay on former CA 82 in San Jose.

I'm inclined to truncate CA 82 at I-880, later when I deal with some other relinquishments.

Two point requests for recently deleted points:


On CA82, could you reinstate a point I was using at BroWay? It connects to an exit on US101, and without it there are no points at all on CA82 in Burlingame.


Same for G/HSt on CA132, which connects to a CA99 exit that provides access to downtown Modesto from the south (it's signed as the "Central Modesto" exit to CA132).



Thanks.

Both make sense to me -- I tried to keep points for roads connecting to nearby freeways, but those slipped by me.

I'll add back those points in tonight's pull request, but perhaps under different names:

BroWay => Bro

G/HSt => GSt ?  I'm unsure about including two named roads in the same waypoint label, and like for interchange waypoints would just go with the lower-lettered street (exit ramp).

I've finished "finalizing" all usaca routes, including synching them with each other and with California routes in active systems (usai, usaib, usaus, usausb), streamlining files to reduce shaping and other points, and truncating or splitting some routes affected by relinquishments to local maintenance.

As discussed above, I might've sometimes overdone it a little on visible waypoint removals, and am open to undoing some of them so long as the overall point density remains reasonable.

Most "near-miss-points" (out-of-synch route junctions) in CA have been eliminated or flagged as false positives. Those include a few involving the preview usanp system, which were manageable in number, and also I contributed many of usanp's California route files so I went ahead and fixed their junctions with other routes. I have not addressed the far more numerous NMPs, and associated broken concurrences, with historic routes in California. Those routes were synched with older versions of usaca and other files while I was still working on them, and will need to be re-synched later (preferably after usaca is activated).

I think all broken concurrences among usaca/usai/usaib/usaus/usausb routes have been eliminated. Any that I've missed, please let me know.

There are still relinquishments I need to figure out how to handle, including but not limited to CA 82 in San Jose, CA 39 in Buena Park, CA 2 between I-405 and West Hollywood, and most of CA 19. I'll address those, and others I think won't require route file changes (including but not limited to CA 146 in Soledad, and parts of CA 58 and 178 in Bakersfield), later.

Pull request submitted to fix broken CA 1/I-280 concurrence. Also adds back CA 187 (looks like I jumped the gun on its relinquishment), and tweaks CA 19 to lay groundwork for additional changes including perhaps adding back CA 164 (similar to CA 260, signed as part of CA 19 rather than its legislative route number).

http://tm.teresco.org/hb/index.php?r=ca.ca091
The part of SR 91 west of I-110 was transferred to the cities. But I drove it last month (east from I-405) and it's still well signed, both at the exit from I-405 and on reassurance. A check of the Goog also shows signage (as of May 2017) at SR 107 and on southbound SR 1; near the west end there's also reassurance westbound at Prospect and both ways at Meadows/Harper.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: oscar on April 13, 2018, 06:05:07 pm
The HB has part of CA 91 west of I-110, to Vermont Avenue. The Streets and Highways Code (https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displayText.xhtml?lawCode=SHC&division=1.&title=&part=&chapter=2.&article=3.) has 91's west end at Vermont Avenue.

West of Vermont Avenue, the Code says that former 91 is not a state highway, nor eligible to be added back to the state highway system. So any 91 signage west of Vermont Ave. seems to be just remnant signage, with no obligation for the cities that now control those segments to maintain route 91 signage. This differs from some relinquishments (usually in the middle of a route) I've kept in the HB for now, where local governments are required to maintain continuation signage to tie together the route segments still state-maintained, an obligation often but not always completely ignored.

How to handle relinquishments is something I'm still noodling over, including consistency with systems in other states (like Florida State Highways, where it seems all relinquished segments are omitted from the draft HB, even if that chops up a route into multiple disconnected pieces). But my tentative approach to California includes at least treating end-of-route relinquishments as truncations, which is what happened to CA 91 west of Vermont Ave.

It's my understanding that TM goes by signage. So shouldn't we have a separate system for locally signed state highways? This would also include SR 130 east of Mount Hamilton.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: oscar on April 14, 2018, 07:01:40 pm
For TM, signage is usually necessary, but not sufficient. Usually this comes up for routes that are officially designated, but unsigned, which with exceptions (most notably for unsigned Interstates like I-444 in Tulsa) we omit from the HB. The opposite situation, where highways are signed as state routes even though they have been officially removed from the state highway system (in California, usually by state law), we normally omit them from the HB too. It's pretty common to find "remnant signage" of decommissioned routes, something of great interest in the road enthusiast community but doesn't do anything for TM.

In California, I've made a tentative exception for highway segments that are officially not in the state system but state law requires them to be signed as such anyway in some fashion. Since usaca is a preview system, that tentative exception is subject to peer review before the system is finalized and becomes "active", and might not survive the peer review process. In any case, that exception would not apply to the former CA 91 west of Vermont Ave. which is not only officially excluded from the state system, but state law does not require whatever route signage exists.

CA 130 is a different story, which is legislatively authorized to exist east of Mt. Hamilton, but Caltrans never built and does not maintain or treat as part of the state system the road east of Mt. Hamilton, which is county-maintained (I'm on the road right now, my info is incomplete at the moment).

Chiming in on the subject of relinquishments:

It is fairly common in the northeast to have sections of state routes (and sometimes entire lengths of state routes!) that are maintained by municipal or county governments. The responsible entity sometimes does not put up signs where there really should be signs (see: New Brunswick, NJ)... and sometimes puts up glaringly nonstandard signs (see: Woonsocket, RI).

No routes have been cut up in the HB due to this, though. Nor should they be - these segments that are not state maintained are still officially part of the routes in question and (usually) signed as such to some degree.

It seems to me that California's relinquished segments are functionally the same thing, even if the legalese behind them is slightly different - a section of a state route which is maintained by a county of municipal government. That is what the legal obligation for the responsible entity to post signs entails. I would not go chopping up routes over this, it is both nonsensical from a network perspective and inconsistent with what we have previously done in other states.


As for Florida, whether chopping routes up is correct would depend on whether there is a legal obligation or expectation that the entity responsible for maintaining the non-state segment should post state route shields (I'm not familiar enough with the legal situation there to really say).

To be fair, the legislative definition of SR 91 begins at Vermont (just west of I-110) with no mention of the continuation to SR 1, now that it's all been relinquished. But signs have not been removed by the cities or Caltrans (on intersecting routes).

If we were going to get into the same level of officialness with I-80, we'd begin it at the former Embarcadero Freeway ramps, with SR 80 continuing west to US 101. The Central Skyway was removed from the Interstate system in 1965 or 1968 (http://cahighways.org/itypes.html) and remains that way according to FHWA (http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/nhs_maps/northern_california/sanfrancisco_ca.pdf).

Do we even have a consistent rule about this?
At the very least, my main gripe about Exit(Route) in its current iteration is that it's a bit vague because the route qualifier's omitted.
To use CA 99 as an example -- 6(50) and 522(5) -- are fairly obvious to us and to those who know California. But for less versed travelers, I think that's confusing, where the Route(Exit) format is more clear [US50(6) and I-5(522)], particularly in states or regions where number duplication aren't uncommon (127(69), to pull a number from the ether -- is that TX 69, US 69, or I-69... or CR/FM/RM 69?!). If the Exit(Route) format were adopted, the qualifiers should be there [6(US 50) and 522(I-5)]; however, that implies that the dominant route (I-5 and US 50) are 'subservient' to CA 99 in this case.
I think ultimately this highlights the strength of the Route(Exit) format -- the route qualifiers have been built in by default, and it shows the dominant route and its exit number on the particular tags.

Absolutely. Always done with single-letter ones (even Tim did it) in Europe.

No - the very opposite in fact! It's saying this is that route's exit numbering, not this route's.

Yes, but it makes it look as if the route is interchanging with the route it is concurrent with!

Route(Exit) is fine for distinguishing multiple intersections with a route with exit numbers. Route(Exit) is deeply confusing for intermediate exits on a concurrency as there's no intersection with 'Route' - the intersection is 'Exit', and the number happens to come from 'Route'.

Sometimes. CA 99 is exit-numbered south of Sacramento. North of the concurrence with I-5 in Sacramento, CA 99 is mostly non-freeway, so it has few numbered exits. The junction with I-5 at its south end south of Bakersfield is I-5(221), but on the concurrencies with I-5 and US 50 in Sacramento, exit number(route number) is the format.

For another example brought up earlier, CA 166 is freeway with exit numbers only on its concurrence with US 101. The exits are labeled US101(exit number). It has one interchange each at its east end with I-5 and CA 99, but no exit numbers needed.

The CHM Manual has the following (as people can't be bothered to look it up) - abridged to just the relevant bits.

Interchanges on exit-numbered highways

In multiplexes where the concurrency uses exit numbers from the other highway, put the highway number in parentheses. Drop the letter prefix of the concurrent highway if it is more than one character long: I-75 becomes (75). A5 can stay as (A5).

If the concurrent highway uses exit numbers but has a name instead of a number, use the truncated first word: Garden State Parkway is truncated as GarStaPkwy, and use the first part that is not the generic highway type: (Gar) for Garden State Parkway, (Bol) for Tangenziale di Bologna.


and

Waypoint labels for multiplexes:

For non-exit-numbered routes concurrent with a numbered, exit-numbered route, use the concurrent highway designation with the exit numbers in parentheses.

For non-exit-numbered routes concurrent with a named, exit-numbered route, use the first part of the truncated name followed by the exit numbers in parentheses.


Not that we have to go along with it, but the distinction was exit-numbered/not.

Of course, this was clouded as (IIRC) Tim stopped us using exit numbers on US highways for a long time.

Unhelpfully, GMSV doesn't show the correct exit number for 6th Ave in Beaumont at the eastern terminus. It shows it as 93, which is I-10's for both CA 60 and 6th Ave. It should be 76. CalTrans messed that one up.

For a route having two distinct exits on its own mainline, it's obnoxious that CalTrans opts to make CA 259 a hidden designation and sign it only as 'To CA 210' northbound, and more obnoxiously, as 'I-215' opposed to 'To I-215' from CA 210.
Considering that this is a major connector between two freeways with its own exits (E St northbound, unshared with CA 210; Base Line southbound, shared with I-215; and Highland Ave both directions), and we do have unsigned Interstates in the database, most notably I-305, which CalTrans doesn't even acknowledge, I'd argue that CA 259 fits the bill for a variance and should be included, the fact that all the online maps (Gmaps, MapQuest, OSM, Bing, RMN [Yahoo seems to be dead?]) all show 259 notwithstanding.

I'm not sure Caltrans "opt[ed]" one way or another. CA 259 has been signed in the not-too-distant past with at least one reassurance marker in each direction on the 259 mainline (https://www.aaroads.com/california/ca-259.html), but for whatever reason the markers aren't there any more.

If it was a deliberate decision rather than inadvertence, it might've been that 259 really is a set of glorified ramps between 210 and 215, covering the "missing movements" omitted from the 210/215 interchange. Enough pavement to assign it a separate route number, but not enough to possibly confuse the traveling public with route markers other than CA 210 NB and I-215 SB.

Removing CA 259 from the HB caused a little heartburn for me. But only a little.

Even if it be a mistake (which I think it isn't), not our job to invent CA60(76) to fix it. I-10(93) at least is a real exit number.

By the CHM rules, as CA60 is an exit-numbered route, they should be 16B(10) and 93(10). But it's really dealers choice between any of the labelling options.

For a route having two distinct exits on its own mainline, it's obnoxious that CalTrans opts to make CA 259 a hidden designation and sign it only as 'To CA 210' northbound, and more obnoxiously, as 'I-215' opposed to 'To I-215' from CA 210.
Shame it doesn't have a name for usasf.

Not quite: while it is an exit-numbered route, those are not exit-numbered points.
With no actual exit-numbers at these points, we instead fall back on "Intersections with visibly numbered highways" here.
Then, it's on to the rule about "If an exit numbered highway is a cross road twice, exit numbers in parentheses can be used to distinguish them."

But it's really dealers choice between any of the labelling options.
There's no "dealer's choice" here -- the manual (http://cmap.m-plex.com/tools/manual_wayptlabels.php) says to "Choose the first type that applies."

I don't think so. The San Bernadino Freeway runs west-east, in the San Bernadino area along part of I-10 which is well south of CA 259. As far as I can tell, 259 has no name (which fits into my "glorified ramps" theory above).

I think even if it had a name, we'd be really straining here to include in usasf a route that is a numbered state highway, which would be in usaca if it had route number markers.

If we were going to stretch anything here, it should be our unsigned routes rule, based on that the route had route number markers about a decade ago, and the route number is shown on callbox signs (assuming that any callboxes remain on that route, since nowadays almost everybody has a cellphone). But CA 259 is just a crummy one mile long, hardly worth the trouble.

IIRC, the SBD Freeway runs east-west mostly along I-10 from US 101 to I-215, then north-south along I-215 to at least CA 259. I'll need to verify if CA 259 is part of the SBD on cahighways.org.

Unless you have reason to think CA1(224) and CA60(76) are signed in the field (I don't recall seeing the latter when I was there last summer; my travels didn't take me to CA 1), since they aren't in CalNexus I see no reason to wait on my changes.

Wheeler Ave. point added to local copy of CA 66, to be pulled in once I've caught up with cansk peer review or I make some other pull request.

I'm doing nothing to synch with historic routes in CA. Someone else can synch them to usaca (and active routes in CA, which I was still working on when the historic routes were rolled out) once I'm finished with usaca. Besides, parts of CA 2 have been relinquished, and might get removed from the HB, so that's another reason not to try to synch with the corresponding historic route.

There are still a few CR___ waypoints, which I'm changing to CH___ or Rd___ when I find them.

Can you show me an example of a route marked "CH x"? "Road x" is not a normal county route system, rather one direction of a grid with "Avenue x" perpendicular.

Here is how one county signs its locally-designated county roads:

No routes are marked "CH x", just as it's rare for Interstate routes to be marked "I-x".  CH- and I- are just abbreviations for the relevant route system. The typical County Highway blue pentagon marker has only the number and the county name:

(https://www.aaroads.com/ca/s000/cr-s004_eb_after_i-015_01.jpg)

The county roads that have numbers (most do not, such as in the example you posted), but are not marked with blue pentagons like the ones in the County Signed Route program, don't follow any particular numbering scheme. Some of them are indeed called "Road X" or "Ave Y", as in this example from Madera County (which I photographed only because that county really loves its -half roads/avenues):

Zoom in on my photo; the numbers are posted.

"Road 30 1/2" is no more a county numbered route than "Half Street" is a DC numbered route. It's simply a named road designated by its place in the grid.

My general rule is that if it's a totally obvious fix or addition that I'm 99% sure won't be an issue, I'll make it and notify the maintainer with a mention in the commit message and/or a note in the forum.

In this specific case, I think it's best of Oscar makes the changes when he's back, as the system is just in preview and beginning its major peer review.  These requests should be addressed as part of that.

I'm not in favor of adding every point requested by a user. For example, I'd want to size up whether the proposed new points are too close to existing points (or could replace nearby points), or would re-clutter up route files I went to some trouble to streamline.

Anyway, we're talking about just a few weeks, and there's no urgency to small improvements in user maps or statistics, or for anybody to mess with files I'm still working on. Patience, please!

OTOH, I'm not maintaining the draft historic route files in California (nor the usanp files, though I contributed many of those files, and would be willing to make fixes with Si's concurrence). That part of neroute2's point request list could be covered by someone else without stepping on my toes.

Also, I've moved this topic from Updates into the "In-Progress Systems and Work" topic for usaca. neroute2, as I've reminded you before, point suggestions/requests for systems still in progress should be made in the topic(s) for those systems, not in Updates which is for changes in active systems.

The point at GraCrkRd is needed at the very least to reflect that people like you who didn't enter or leave CA 17 at exit 5 haven't clinched the entire business route (which includes part of GraCrkRd for northbound travelers, and a parallel ramp for southbound travelers). It also reflects that travelers need to make a 90-degree turn there to stay on the business route, and helps the business route display separately from the mainline except at the endpoints.

Did you see any signage for the business route? My recollection is that signage was sketchy at best.

Nope. Both requested points are less than a half mile from each other, and each less than 0.6 mile from existing points, so they'd be excessive even with the higher waypoint densities typical for urban areas. Also, the entire Knott's Berry Farm segment of CA 39 has been relinquished to the city of Buena Park (between the southern BP city limit and I-5), so both requested points might get glorked anyway once I settle on how to deal with such relinquishments.

Did you see any CA 39 signage in Buena Park south of I-5? (I could check GMSV, but it isn't always up to date so field observations are useful too). That's relevant to how I handle the Buena Park relinquishment. Buena Park is required by state law to maintain continuation signage, but such requirements are all too often completely ignored.

Why can't a requested point be added within a mile of another point?

I mean, I get that Tim wanted to keep the number of points down back in the CHM days because he was concerned about server resources. But we are no longer required to follow to Tim's rules, nor do we have those resource constraints anymore. So I see no reason to be stingy with adding points.

Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: oscar on July 26, 2018, 09:31:20 pm
Jim can speak to resource constraints, but now that our project is expanding internationally to at least five continents, the size of the database and associated processing burdens could still be issues. Even without Tim, there has certainly still been nudging to keep point density under control, including specifically for some of the largest route files in usaca.

Besides, the one-mile "rule" is not hard and fast. If there are closely-spaced intersections with numbered routes, they both go in. Same if we need closely-spaced points for shaping. And point density in densely-populated urban areas tends to go up, as it was even under Tim's management. But if we don't add some intersection with an unnumbered road of non-obvious importance (not even for shaping, which is the reason for many otherwise totally unimportant waypoints), and there's a point within a mile, the user who would like that intersection added usually will lose a mile or less in the user stats and maps. No big deal, IMO. That happens to me all the time.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: Jim on July 26, 2018, 10:35:59 pm
No resource constraints at this point.  I think we just want to keep routes from getting too overly dense, so things are not too cluttered on the maps and tables.  That said, if there are a few points likely to be useful that happen to be close together, I'd be in favor of including all of them.

One way to solve the problem of too many unnecessary waypoints would be to replace some of the visible points with invisible ones, and reserve the visible points for truly useful junctions.

That runs counter to what I'd understood was the current SOP, to replace hidden waypoints with visible ones where possible (which I've done with some routes covered in neroute2's point requests). If we're going to have a waypoint anyway, such as for shaping purposes, making it visible would make it available to users with little extra cost, even if the potential benefit is uncertain at best.

OTOH, requested points for intersections with unnumbered routes, less than 0.1 mile from existing waypoints (there were two of them here), seem generally not to be worth the extra work. I think "not worth the extra work" would sometimes also apply to requested points not quite so close to existing points, though different team members might draw the line differently WRT the systems they maintain/develop.

I did add two points on CA 82 for connectors to nearby freeways, that were less than a half-mile from existing points. I've tried to include such points as a general rule, but didn't do so for that route when I initially edited the file.

AFAIK, that's been hinted at in the forum, but if there's ever been a clear directive to favor visible shaping points over hidden ones, I've not read it. It seems kind of pointless to clutter the files with named points at culs-de-sac and paper roads that no one will ever use.

How is this clutter, though? You are making a point either way. The total number of points in the file is not impacted by such a policy.

If there is a cross street of some sort at the approximate location you are making a point anyway, you may as well make it a visible point because even though the likelihood of it being used may be low, it takes no extra effort to make it visible and no extra bandwidth to allow it to be visible.

That said I would only apply this to actual intersections. So, cul-de-sacs would be fair game, and so would dirt roads... but "paper roads" would not be.


Meanwhile don't dismiss the usefulness of such points - maybe someone has only driven the route as far as that cul-de-sac because their second cousin they went to visit that one time lives on it. Maybe they turned around at the intersection with that dirt road because it happened to be right over the line of  a county they wanted to clinch, or because it was at that point that they realized that had missed a turn and needed to go back the other way.

I'm certainly in favor of having "make a point visible if there is a nearby intersection to use" be official guidance if it isn't already.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: oscar on July 30, 2018, 09:30:55 pm
^ I agree with the above. But the one kind of "clutter" from including minor visible waypoints, that would be reduced if they were hidden, is in the waypoint list shown in the HB.

In addition to people who used a minor intersection to go to their destinations, or to turn around, there will be people who go through that intersection, do a U-turn elsewhere (or break down, or go off-road, or turn around at another minor intersection), but they can use the labeled intersection to claim some more mileage in their list files.

In instances where I've U-turned right after passing a county line sign, while I can't ask for a county line point (unless there is a legitimate county line road intersection there), I have asked for a point at a nearby intersection that other users might find helpful too, so I could claim some of the mileage and my maps would hint at how I snagged that county.

Like Oscar said, every visible point makes the waypoint list showing in the HB longer, and adds a waypoint symbol to the map.

Of course it takes extra effort. I don't know what basemap you use in the editor, but I typically start with OSM Default. To add an invisible waypoint for shaping, you find the place where the point makes the shape conform to the limits and it's done. To add a visible point at a random unimportant road, you need to open GMSV at that location to check to see if (A) there is actually a road there and (B) if its name shows up on a street sign. If there is a road but no sign, you need to find some other way to confirm the name. Google's name for it isn't any more likely to be correct than OSM's. And then you need to see if you've already used that name somewhere else in the file, and if so, either modify one of them or move one to a different road that might the job. Which puts you right back to checking GMSV.

And anyone who has ever asked me to create one for them has gotten their wish, as far as I can recall. Although CHM guidelines specifically stated that we NOT locate a point at a place just because it's personally relevant (your second cousin's house), I don't have a problem with this. I added one at a county line just the other day for Oscar, in fact. It wasn't needed for any shaping purpose whatsoever, but since I knew it would be used, it deserves to be in the file.

Seems like a reasonable approach. I've occasionally requested an extra waypoint (usually with a reason why I thought it necessary) and always had it added. In cases where I might have driven partway between 2 existing waypoints, I usually go with the next one back (so I don't mistakenly clinch a segment which I've only partially driven).

Prefer an intersection to act as a shaping point location wherever possible. Shaping points that coincide with intersections should be added as normal, visible waypoints labeled in the usual way.

My takeaway from the manual is:
DON'T place a point just because it leads to your second cousin's house.
DO place a point if it's needed to keep the route's shape within tolerance.
• When doing so, prefer an intersection over a hidden point.
From here, it follows that these points may occasionally be of use by travelers, as Duke87 noted.

County lines:
It's safe to say our target audience is roadgeeks who like collecting stuff. There will be some natural overlap here with county collectors. Points at/near county lines thus may be a little more likely to be useful. If requested, I may add them in, but want to have some other justification as well; I still try to be conservative here. When Oscar recently requested two points in canabs, I added one, but not the other as it was rather close to an existing point.

WA cleanup:
I haven't looked at stuff in Washington in too great detail, but I'd say that,
If a route is "over-shaped", with more points than necessary to stay within tolerance, then trimming out unneeded shaping points may be advisable.
If points are necessary to keep within lateral tolerance, leave them in.

I'm inclined to add it to the HB, similar to the business loops from state routes already in the HB (as part of usaca, there is no separate system for the business loops). The San Andreas CA 49 historic route appears not to be state-maintained, but then in California neither are most of the signed business routes.

After I drove through San Andreas earlier today, to check out and clinch that route you spotted, I noticed (and think I clinched) a similarly-signed Historic CA 49 in Mokelumne Hill a few miles to the north. This one appears to consist of Main Street and Center Street.

Before I add this to the HB, worth poking around GMSV and cahighways.org for any other missing Historic CA 49s. I'm pretty sure there are no others on the part of CA 49 I drove today, between Coulterville and Jackson, but maybe there are others in or north of Jackson.

BTW, the town of San Andreas, in the Sierra Nevada foothills, is nowhere near the San Andreas Fault, and also is in the part of California that won't fall into the ocean. :)

I just got back home from northern California, where I did some field-checking while I think clinching all the state routes in northern California I hadn't already covered. The only ones I'm still missing are some in the four coastal counties from Los Angeles County to San Luis Obispo County.

I'll be shortly submitting the following changes to route files, which might affect your list files so watch your error logs:

-- Add CA 49 Historic (Mokelumne Hill), per preceding post, with conforming changes to the CA 49 route file

-- Delete CA 114 as unsigned

-- Truncate CA 87 north of US 101 (Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool says the route ends at US 101)

-- Truncate CA 82 east of I-880, removing mileage relinquished to the city of San Jose (some remnant old route signage, but not enough to guide travelers through several turns in downtown; plus this does not break the route in two), with conforming relabel of north endpoint in San Francisco

-- Adding a few more visible points for CA 61 (Oakland Airport), most notably for the turnoff for the Oakland airport's consolidated car rental facility, and also the winding CA 130 to the Lick Observatory atop Mt. Hamilton

-- Corrected some labels for CA 1 Business (Monterey) and CA 68.

The eastern segment of CA 146, to the east entrance to Pinnacles National Park, also appears to be unsigned. 2012 GMSV shows route signage within or just outside the park (junction markers on CA 25, End 146 marker at the old entrance station, postmiles between the old entrance station and CA 25), even after the park was expanded in 2006 to include all of CA 146's eastern segment. That route signage now has all disappeared. However, this may be temporary, pending decisions by the National Park Service on building a new east entrance station somewhere closer to CA 25, which might result in decommissioning all of eastern CA 146 or only part of it (Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool indicates none of it has yet been decommissioned). So I would hold off for now on removing the segment from the HB. The legislature has authorized the total relinquishment of CA 146, but that hasn't happened except the short stretch of the western segment within Soledad city limits, which has adequate continuation signage so I would leave that alone.

EDIT: I'm adding to today's pull request the removal of relinquished segments of CA 92, CA 185, and CA 238 in Hayward. This set of relinquishments was unusual, in that Hayward was not required to maintain signage pointing to the rest of each route, only to direct travelers to the rest of the state highway network. Sure enough, I saw no continuation signage on the relinquished segments. My changes will remove a few blocks from the east end of CA 92 and the south end of CA 185, and a few miles from the middle of CA 238 (splitting that route into the main Fremont segment, and a short stub in Castro Valley connecting to the I-238 and I-580 freeways).

cahighways.org indicates that in October 2017, the California Transportation Commission approved additional relinquishments for CA 92 east of Santa Clara St., CA 185 south of Rose St., and CA 238 between Industrial Pkwy and Hayward's southern city limit. However, the Postmile Query Tool indicates these latest relinquishments have not yet been implemented -- such delays are common, such as when the city in question wants the state to catch up on roadwork before taking the road off Caltrans' hands. I'll wait on these additional truncations before removing them from the HB.

Pull request submitted for above changes, and also to clean up unused usaca route files:

https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/2336

EDIT: In addition to removing CA 114 from the HB, I've made a follow-up pull request to rename the CA114 point in the CA 84 (Fremont) route file to WilRd.

Following up on mapmikey's note from his recent visit to San Diego (http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=397.msg12922#msg12922), I'm truncating the south end of CA 15 to waypoint 1A (Main St.), removing the waypoint for 32ndSt. All the official sources (CalNExUS exit number list, Caltrans Postmile Query Tool, old Caltrans route log) confirm that CA 15 extends south of the I-5 interchange, but ends at Main St. rather than 32nd St.

This has been changed in my local files, and will be pulled into the HB with my next update.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system

Copied over from the Florida State Highways topic, for later followup. See https://goo.gl/maps/V7GBBQZNjAUdgb1q7 (END CA 16 sign on Howe Ave. north of Folsom Blvd. before US50 interchange, which I didn't notice when I drove by there in 2017).

Reliquishment of part of CA 16 in Sacramento and Sacramento County has been authorized and agreed to by the local jurisdictions. However, the Postmile Query Tool still shows it as part of CA 16. The authorizing statute requires application to Caltrans to convert the relinquished CA 16 segments into a business route. Not clear what's happening with that, but in the meantime the local jurisdictions are required to maintain continuation signage.

usaca has no standard on implied multiplexes, other than that the implied route can follow only one signed route.
http://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?r=ca.ca016
http://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?r=ca.ca099
Do these need to be split?

Maybe 16, whose multiplex follows I-5 and US 50, and is poorly signed if at all.

99, IIRC that multiplex (also over shorter segments of I-5 and US 50) is reasonably well-signed.
Title: Re: usaca (California State Highways), preview system
Post by: oscar on September 06, 2019, 12:45:42 pm
I'll shortly split CA 16 into a main segment west of Woodland, and separate Willow Springs segment from Sacramento east. This will remove the supposed multiplex with I-5 and US 50. That multiplex is unsigned, and the END CA 16 sign mentioned in the preceding post seals the deal for me.

OTOH, CA 99 will be left as is. There is adequate signage to guide CA 99 travelers though the multiplex with I-5 and US 50.

I'm also truncating CA 14U. Caltrans' best efforts to remove the route entirely from the books have not yet been successful, but it has transferred some of the route to local governments, as shown in Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool (https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/PMQT/PostmileQueryTool.html).

EDIT: Above changes are now in the Highway Browser.

Does it matter?

preview allows lists to be broken without warning or update, but while we don't do updates, we don't have to break list files if we don't want to.

I've done it from time to time when I knew an route would be changing numbers sometime in the near future, but not exactly when it would happen.  So, decided to play it safe.

CA89MtS:
+x220 could be replaced with a point for Eagle Mountain Ln (http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=41.019942&lon=-121.621380), for access to the Dusty Campground.
Shaping points in that area are pretty thick as well, and could be thinned out a bit.
LasPeakHwy might be a more clear label for the S endpoint? Same for the same point on CA44?

US101: There's a point labeled CA1/271, but CA271Leg ends at CA1, not overlapping to US101.
CA254: Recommend dropping the "To" from ToUS101(663) and ToUS101(667A)
US101BusFor: Add a Newburg Rd point, for its connection to US101 exit 688?
CA255: Has US101_S and US101(713). There's no interchange & thus no exit number at the S jct, but maybe relabel the N one to be consistent?

I'd say there's a 99.9999% chance that you're right that since there isn't an interchange there will be no exit number, but US 20's 'exit' 7 at the eastern intersection with Bus US 20 (Toledo)  makes a double check warranted. (I still wonder why ODOT chose to slap an exit number there instead of on its non-numbered interchanges still floating around -- OR 126 in Springfield comes to mind).

Starting on a review:
1: GolLanSt should be moved north one block, since Del Prado is signed as SR 1 Alternate (northbound (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.4659374,-117.6908284,3a,25.7y,312.19h,92.22t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sci1GikHgEzNLjWgb8v94vA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192), southbound (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.4653804,-117.7076906,3a,37.2y,115.82h,91.39t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sEff_RXDlEYGo_r2JKOVRIQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)).

Just an initial response from the road -- I've included in many of my systems hiking trails where there are gates to block vehicle access, but they're still open to the public. I think some of the gated trails you mention fall into that category, though I'll get more specific when I'm back home.

19: SteAve -> SteSt, WilAve -> WilSt
19: hide TemCityLim?

This, and other routes in the Los Angeles area (like CA 2), have parts relinquished to local jurisdictions, as part of a Caltrans effort to dump urban surface routes as much as possible and focus on the freeways. There have been relinquishments all over the state, but I've field-checked everything outside Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties, and I think I've figured out how to deal with them. You can help with the ones in those four counties (including CA 2, part of which I've already removed from the HB but there's another one in Beverly Hills I haven't figured out).

Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool (https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/PMQT/PostmileQueryTool.html) is the best guide to what relinquishments have actually been carried out. The Streets and Highways Code will tell you what's been authorized, but some authorized relinquishments haven't been agreed to by the local governments, or they have been agreed to if Caltrans first fixes up the road before the local government will deign to take it off Caltrans' hands.

Most of CA 19 has been turned over to local governments, including the part including the SteAve and WilAve points. The PQT (make sure to turn on the "View County Boundaries, Routes, and Calibration Postmiles" option) indicates there are two disconnected fragments of CA 19 that haven't been relinquished. One is between Lakewood and Downey. The other is between Montebello and Temple City (at the TemCityLim point). To make things even more interesting, the second segment is technically unsigned CA 164, but is probably still signed as CA 19 (please check that out). Similar to CA 260 in Oakland, which is signed as part of CA 61 -- I put that in the HB as both CA 61 and CA 260.

My inclination is to remove everything from Lakewood south, and from Temple City north, since that wouldn't chop up CA 19 into little pieces. But is there enough old or continuation CA 19 signage (including on intersecting routes) to justify keeping the Downey-Montebello relinquished segment in the HB, for route continuity? There is a lot of reluctance on this forum to make mid-route relinquishment removals, such as the ones that would break CA 1 in four pieces. And unlike in Florida, state law generally treats relinquished route segments as to some extent still part of the route, and requires local jurisdictions to maintain continuation signage for their relinquished segments, though many local governments treat that requirement as a joke.

14: CA14Trk -> I-5Trk; ca.ca014trknew is an I-5 truck route

You're not the first on this forum to suggest that the dually-signed I-5/CA 14 truck route in Newhall be treated as an I-5 truck route. Caltrans logs it as route 5S, separate from (Interstate) route 5. I'm inclined to add it to the HB as I-5TrkNew (even though AASHTO has AFAIK never approved that addition to the system), and make the CA 14 label change you suggest.

It's a truck route *to* SR 14. There's nothing dual about the signage.
And since when does AASHTO approve truck lanes on a different alignment?

As for relinquishments, I'm the wrong person to ask. I think SR 91 still extends west (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.8722498,-118.3416137,3a,21.9y,341.04h,98.15t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sc29fhhynCAGAS4ryGld8Ag!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) to SR 1 (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.8740656,-118.3960557,3a,40.5y,157.07h,103.43t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s4eFyzg3OL8nF4Bq4T1H4Og!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) and have it in my list file as such.

Nope. Only signage is for CA 61, even though it isn't part of that route. Unless there are CA 260 postmiles I didn't notice on my field check, though postmiles tend to be scarce in high-density urban areas.

7: NinaLeeRd -> CarrRd

Leaving this alone. Carr Road seems to be discontinuous, thanks to the new port of entry, with Nina Lee a separate road helping to connect the two parts of Carr Rd., with signage at the interchange pointing travelers to Carr Rd. rather than identifying the bridge as part of Carr Rd. Anyway, NinaLeeRd is a point in use, would rather not disturb it.

11: CA125/905 -> 1A?

Exit numbering is confusing, with 1A used for CA 11 EB to CA 125, and for CA 11 WB bypass ramp to La Media Rd. (CA 905 exit 7), while 1B is used for both CA 11 EB to Enrico Fermi Rd. and CA 11 WB to CA 125. Leaving this alone for now, maybe the exit numbering will be cleaned up once CA 11 is extended to a planned new border crossing.

Quote
12: FreDr is just westbound 12, so these waypoints should be deleted

Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool disagrees, putting CA 12 on the routing shown in the HB at this iunctiion, and identifying the one-way Fremont Dr. connector as not state-maintained. This also comports with my field-check of this junction.

Quote
12: CA121 -> CA121_S
12: CA29 -> CA29_S

The CA29/121 waypoint makes it unnecessary to add directional suffixes to the other junctions of CA 12 with CA 29 and CA 121.

In my local copies of the CA 12 and I-80 files. The relocated point is only 0.06 mile from 40B. But the HB now treats them as separate interchanges (40A with Green Valley/Lopes, 40B only with I-680) -- they once were combined into a single interchange -- and I would keep that as is.

Quote
12: PotRd -> GlaRd; shift west to the overpass?

Point renamed, but not relocated.

Other CA 12 changes not otherwise discussed are in my local copy.

Quote
13: should 1B be added? it's not exactly the same interchange as 1A
13: I-80 -> I-80/580

1B really is part of the 1A interchange, connecting CA 13 to I-580 WB and from I-580 EB.

The other change will go into my local copy.

Going into my local copy. The new I-5TrkNew file will be added later.

12: FreDr is just westbound 12, so these waypoints should be deleted

Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool disagrees, putting CA 12 on the routing shown in the HB at this iunctiion, and identifying the one-way Fremont Dr. connector as not state-maintained. This also comports with my field-check of this junction.
Because it's a ramp. They also don't show 12 eastbound using the right-turn ramp onto 29 south. Or the ramps to/from 99. Should BecRd (just east of 99) get a waypoint?

I wasn't sure what you were getting at. I'm now inclined to remove FreDr_W and FreDr_E from the CA 12 file (and also the corresponding point from the CA 121 file) just because they're too close to the CA121 point, and nobody's using them.

TM once routed CA 12 over Fremont Dr. I kept the FreDr points to underscore that CA 12 follows the other two legs of the triangle. Not needed for that purpose anymore.

Fair enough. But we need a shaping point in that area, and unsigned, unpaved narrow roads are common in that part of rural California. Absent a better alternative (which you've identified in some of your other comments), or unless a waypoint isn't needed for shaping or other reasons, this seems to be a "better than nothing" situation. Unless a hidden shaping point would be better than a labeled point (however iffy) in this location.

I'm just picking out this one example to raise a general issue that seems to apply to many of your other comments.

I question whether an unmarked trail for which we don't have a reliable source for the name is really better than a hidden shaping point.

47: SeaFwy_E -> I-710

Not yet. That awaits replacement of the existing Gerald Desmond bridge, which is locally-maintained and definitely not Interstate-standard, with a new wider and higher bridge being built alongside it. The not-yet-opened new bridge and approaches have already been adopted into the state highway system as part of route 710, but that doesn't include the existing bridge and approaches. The project has been subject to numerous delays, but is expected to be finished early 2020, AIUI. That should resolve any questions about whether I-710 extends to CA 47, rather than ending where the HB now has it. Renaming the waypoint on CA 47 (and extending I-710 in the HB) can wait until then.

See a prior discussion of this issue (http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=2011.msg5941#msg5941), including conflicting information such as signage. See also the extensive discussion of this and other route 710 issues at the California Highways website (https://www.cahighways.org/466-740.html#710).

47 is consistently signed along Alameda Avenue to SR 91 (reassurance (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.7768452,-118.2408683,3a,75y,347.73h,78.75t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s5pDTGqkTssB2HGUMcDSAFA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192) examples (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.8704523,-118.2164844,3a,75y,175.94h,95.2t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1se60uNeMx5rQOCOXFcNRD9w!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)). This may not be state maintained, but it is part of the legal definition.

The legal definition allows, but does not require, Caltrans to designate a road in that corridor if it meets state highway standards. Many legislative route definitions include unbuilt segments, such as CA 190 which legislatively starts in the Central Valley and ends in Death Valley, but with an never-built segment in the middle where it would've crossed the Sierra Nevada mountain range; or route 710 which legislatively still passes through South Pasadena but the residents there have effectively killed off that proposed freeway.

cahighways.org (https://www.cahighways.org/041-048.html#047) indicates that there are plans to fill the gap between CA 103 and CA 91 with an improved highway as part of a harbor access improvement project, which will become a state highway (presumably an extension of CA 47) whenever it's completed.

And so is Caltrans, as indicated by its Postmile Query Tool.

I saw the signage you mention, when I field-checked CA 47 (and the Henry Ford/Alameda corridor). But I decided, after further research, to truncate CA 47 in the HB to the CA 103 split anyway. As I've previously noted, signage isn't everything.

I don't always catch this stuff, so keep pointing it out. But sometimes I've already addressed the issue, as I have here.

Caltrans's PQT only shows state-maintained highways. This part of SR 47 is not state-maintained.

But usaca is basically a system of state-maintained highways.

There are exceptions for certain toll roads and bridges (shown in the PQT even if not maintained by Caltrans); business routes (most are former segments of state-maintained highways, transferred to local maintenance after they were bypassed by new alignments, but designated as business routes under California Streets and Highways Code section 100.9); and some other locally-maintained segments in the middle of otherwise state-maintained highways, kept in the HB for route continuity so that a route isn't chopped into pieces. None of these apply to the route 47 corridor north of the CA 103 split, which is essentially an unbuilt future CA 47 extension.

But TM cares more about signage than maintenance. Being well signed applies to that part of SR 47.

They both matter, as well as whether a road is officially part of the relevant highway system.

In this case, that state maintenance in the CA 47 corridor ends at CA 103, reflects that the roads to the north aren't (yet) part of the state highway system. Caltrans is legislatively authorized to add those roads to the system, which might happen after improvements are made.

But until then, signage is not enough. Your own experience with remnant CA 91 markers, on part of Artesia Blvd. that the state legislature had unconditionally removed from the state highway system (with none of the strings attached to many relinquishments elsewhere in the system), underscores that point.

I know all this. I also know that Caltrans has installed signs continuing SR 47 north past SR 103.

But until then, signage is not enough.

Although these are addition apples vs. deletion oranges, my "own experience" is that SR 91 does extend west to SR 1.

CA 70 Bus (Oroville) connects to 48B, but not 48A. Splitting the interchange makes for more accurate mapping of the business route, with a proper graph connection to the mainline. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered.

Exit 75 is an endpoint of Lake Elsinore's other business loop (weird, but true last I checked). As for why the first business loop doesn't end at exit 77, or 78, or 81, when I drafted that file this End I-15BL sign assembly (http://www.alaskaroads.com/End-BL15LakeElsinoreCA_DSC7352.jpg) (photo taken March 2012) on Lakeshore Dr.@CA 74 got in the way. That signage seems to have disappeared, and I didn't find in GMSV any other I-15BL signage at the intersection.

I don't feel like revisiting Lake Elsinore's strange business loop setup anytime soon, with all the other stuff on my plate. But in the meantime, given the apparent lack of visible BL signage at that intersection, I agree with your LakDr label change.

98: DesRd is barely identifiable as a road (https://www.google.com/maps/@32.7126033,-115.2351609,3a,59.5y,347.6h,95.94t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sTbnEFjCWh5l300P8XZ7fyA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656); move east to Drop4 (https://www.google.com/maps/@32.7121617,-115.2180174,3a,15y,200.75h,87.81t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sE-_eVCtFuC3YC1teYMXvlw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656)?

Looks like some of the roads I've driven in the Imperial Valley. :)

That said, Drop 4 (perhaps renamed AACDrop4) just barely works as a substitute shaping point, and unlike DesRd has a sign on CA 98 (for the public All-American Canal hydropower facility it serves) even if we can't otherwise tell what the road name is.

The other comments remain in my growing queue, this one just caught my eye.

Based on the Caltrans exit list (http://web.archive.org/web/20190602124439/http://www.dot.ca.gov/trafficops/exit/docs/91.pdf). It seems it hasn't been signed yet, but neither has 17 eastbound.

Right. 17B is the officially assigned exit number from WB 91 to I-605, and 17 is the officially assigned exit number from EB 91 to I-605, while 17A is both signed and assigned for the Studebaker Rd. ramp from WB 91. That makes 17 a reasonable waypoint label for the 91/605 interchange, and ISTM a better label than 17B to keep the interchange waypoints on 91 in sequence from west to east.

60: 1B is part of the same interchange as 1D, but maybe separating makes more sense
60: 74 -> 74A (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.9350629,-117.0361188,3a,26.9y,150.21h,92.04t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1siYsz6HqHakE0tzEQwgWxkw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192)

1B and 1D could be combined into a single 1B point, halfway between existing 1B and 1D. No need to preserve connections to other routes for either point.

As for 74, official exit numbering has it as unsigned 74 and signed 74A, but with a note that the sign needs to be corrected. There's no exit 74B, and apparently a new exit 75 is under construction that will leave no room for a new exit 74B. Leaving this alone.

103: signage continues south with 47 to I-710, and north to Willow Street as functionally a long ramp
103: CA47 -> 5(47)
103: ISt -> AnaSt (the only street the exit is signed for)

The segment north of CA 1 is mostly city-owned and not a state highway. The city of Long Beach has considered tearing up its part of the freeway (https://www.cahighways.org/097-104.html#103), though it hasn't bothered to remove the old route markers. However, the PQT and a 2002 paper route log indicate state route 103 continues about 0.2 mile north of CA 1, near ramps to and from E. 20th St. as well as CA 1. Legislatively, CA 103 ends at CA 1. Caltrans will sometimes fudge things to include short stubs past the legislative endpoint (such as here to at least include the entire CA 1 interchange), though it appears not to have fudged things enough to extend CA 103 to Willow St.

CA 103's official south ends is at CA 47, though it is co-signed with part of CA 47. I'll think about it, along with instances of co-signage elsewhere in the state.

ISt => AnaSt is fine with me.

108: CA99Bus_N and CA132/99Bus_S are the same intersection

Not quite. I think the separate points in the CA 108, CA 132, and CA 99 Business route files are clarifying, reflecting that EB CA 108 traffic needs to make a right turn at CA 132/99 Bus then a left turn onto half of a one-way couplet.

It's a one-way pair that uses a cross street to begin. Should IL 9 (http://travelmapping.net/hb/?r=il.il009) get a second point at Locust and Lee?

Has anyone been here since then?

Thanks for reminding me of this loose end -- the revamping of the Calexico West POE at CA 111 has been in the works for some time.

"End" is the point around the railroad crossing where, AIUI, the Federales took over the road from Caltrans, as part of its expansion of the port of entry.

A quick prowl of GMSV shows that Mexico-bound traffic is now directed west on 2nd St., then turns south at Cesar Chavez, where there are signs indicating there is no U-turn before the border. But no signs indicating that CA 111 makes that turn. You can drive south of 2nd St. on Imperial Ave., but near the End waypoint there are now "no public access" signs. On my last visit to Calexico, I drove past End to the last U-turn before the border, and saw only a lot of construction south of 2nd St. @ Cesar Chavez.

My inclination is to just truncate CA 111 at the 2ndSt waypoint, since it's unclear what happened to CA 111 south of that waypoint after the POE reconfiguration, other than that Imperial Ave. south of 2nd St. is a short dead-end at best.

This, and all your other changes to ca111.wpt and ca111pal.wpt, and label corrections to I-10 route file, in https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/3228

All the 120/120Lee changes look good. I'll put them in my queue, with the renamed AndSt tweaked a little.

The California Highways site has CRJ132 possibly co-designated as CRJ20, but only J132 is signed at CA 120 and CA 49, so it'll be changed to CRJ132 in both files.

Sorry to be skipping around like this, when I have more time I'll go back to address the others in a more orderly fashion.

When I was last there, it was posted as exit 7 in the other direction (https://goo.gl/maps/JgF2fzmC12Qz6v3E6), which is why I used no exit number at all. Now that's been "corrected" to 13 in both directions, perhaps by the same eejit. It's not on the CalNexus exit list (http://web.archive.org/web/20190602124519/http://www.dot.ca.gov/trafficops/exit/docs/126.pdf), but the nearby interchange with "Castaic Junction" (unfinished ramps connecting to historic US 99) and I-5 are officially (but poorly signed. if at all) 40A  and 40B-C respectively. Go fig.

I'll later change and recenter ComCenDr => 13, and I-5 to 40B, as daffy as it may seem. I've included some other officially-designated but unsigned interchange numbers, though those other ones made more sense than this one.

No blue pentagon markers at that intersection, and the California Highways site's list of routes in the County Sign Route program (https://www.cahighways.org/county.html) doesn't have it. I'm reserving the CR (formerly CH) abbreviation for CSR or other county routes with pentagon route markers visible from state routes. This would include some roads with newly-added blue pentagon route markers which haven't yet been added to the California Highways list or necessarily formally added to the CSR system, like CRS450 on CA 89 (https://www.google.com/maps/@39.5047148,-120.2625657,3a,15y,73.77h,90.12t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sTyEfscJ_8KR_Yb6BlHuelA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en) (you noted above this needs to be corrected to CR450),  CR103A on CA 139 in Tulelake (https://www.google.com/maps/@41.9415548,-121.4566637,3a,15y,335.39h,85.42t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s66zocQjItXlJ85XWIURDnQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656), and others (especially in northeastern California) (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=25606.0).

Other county roads marked only with street blades or other non-route marker sign (which often don't have "county" or "CO" in the sign, even if online maps mark them as "county road"), I have been using "Rd" as the abbreviation. I plan to keep that abbreviation, to distinguish County Sign Routes for which I had used the CH abbreviation, or other blue-pentagoned routes, from lesser county-maintained roads.

I've added or plan to add to the HB at some point, intersections with the new blue-pentagoned county routes identified over at the aaroads.com forum and/or the California Highways site or you stumble across them in your peer review, as I find out about them. Activation need not wait for that project to be completed, since even the routes in the County Sign Route program are not mandatory waypoints (as we've sometimes omitted some blue-pentagoned county roads in New Mexico and perhaps other states).

Quote
138: RidRouRd -> CRN2
138: add CRN6 http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=34.506448&lon=-117.896588

These intersecting roads are in the CSR program, as suggested by the N prefix used for CSRs in Los Angeles County. I'll add or rename them accordingly (perhaps after a crosscheck to confirm blue pentagon signage, though the California Highways site says at least N2 is signed from CA 138).

Quote
137: CHJ25 -> Rd68
137: CHJ15_N -> Rd140, CHJ15_S -> Rd152, CHJ23 -> Rd168

Sounds right. I've heard over on the AARoads forum (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=23784.msg2363156#msg2363156) that blue pentagons have been disappearing in Tulare County, even if the county routes remain on the books of the CSR program.

140: CA59_N and CA99(188) are the same interchange

Within the same interchange. But while CA99(188) is the correct point for the overall interchange, CA59_N is the point within the interchange where CA 59 and CA 140 split. This, IMO, warrants a fudge to the normal practice of "one point per interchange". It's somewhat similar to QC 104, where we have (and will keep. as discussed in the canqc peer review thread) separate A-30 and QC217 waypoints, even though the latter is within the footprint of the Autoroute 30/QC 104 interchange.

So you take SR 99 south into Merced, get off at exit 188, and turn right on SR 140. Your list file now has 99 north of 188, but the line for 140 doesn't start at CA99(188), because you haven't entered 140 until the CA59_N point. This makes less sense than Chewbacca.

The Quebec example is very different, since 217's centerline stays east of A-30.

260 is not signed

Your thoughts on what to do with this and somewhat similar situations?

260 - signed as, but officially isn't, part of CA 61; in the HB, concurrent with HB's CA 61 (Posey/Webster Tubes) segment
112 - co-signed with part of CA 61 (even though original plan was to extend 61 south to 238), but there is a little CA 112 signage; now concurrent with part of CA 61 in the HB; could remove the concurrence by truncating CA 61
164 - probably signed as, but officially isn't, part of CA 19, but no CA 164 signage; not in HB except as part of CA 19
51 - signed only as I-80BL (Sacramento); not in HB

Post by: neroute2 on October 22, 2019, 11:48:31 am
All four of these are listed as being signed as other routes in a 1998(?) document from Caltrans. Since nothing seems to have changed, except for the posting of one 112 sign (still outnumbered by 61 signs on that segment), we should probably follow that document.

On the other hand, I'd have no problem including unsigned routes like 260, 114, and 275 :)

Is CA 259 and 710 still unsigned?
710 I can reluctantly see omitting, but I still want 259.

76busoce: FouS4 -> FouRd
I see the signs for 76busoce on the I-5 ramps, but are there any others? If not, do we really have enough information to map the east end?

I grew up there, and often went back to visit family, so I have some familiarity with the situation.

The signs you spotted are the only ones, and probably never were any others. This went quickly to phase 2 of the life-cycle for California business routes, where the locality (city of Oceanside) taking over the old CA 76 alignment loses interest in signing the business route. Usually Caltrans takes the hint and (phase 3) removes its own business route signage. I don't know why that hasn't happened here.

I know the old alignment followed Mission Avenue all the way to its end, so that's how I mapped it. It does not connect back to CA 76 on its east end, since Mission got truncated at Frazee Rd. by a new shopping center. There is no signage telling travelers whether to turn left or right to connect with CA 76. I decided not to infer a connection, but rather left the east end at Mission@Frazee.

This is one of the flakier California business routes, though not necessarily the worst. I decided to leave them all in except the ones that lost all their Caltrans-maintained signage, in which case our normal practice regarding unsigned routes means I don't have to pester Caltrans about whether the route is still "official". Several business routes that once were official were omitted or removed from the HB for that reason.

Can someone explain how this makes sense? http://travelmapping.net/hb/?r=or.ca161&lat=41.999&lon=-121.6&zoom=17

Part of CA 161 is clearly in California, and part follows the state line more or less (with perhaps a slight dive or two into California). The latter is treated as a California route in Oregon, for simplicity and to avoid wasting time on where the border is (unsafe to assume it's where it's supposed to be, in this case at the 42nd parallel, as we've found in other jurisdictions) and whether the road is exactly on top of the border or is merely really close.

If we're not sure about the exact location of the border, why not assume it's on the road and put all of 161 in CA?

US 101: mileage is measured from a south end at the bridge that carries I-10 west over US 101. If we're not going to start the file there, we should probably do it where the freeways actually merge near Lorena Street. Then we get the following interchanges:
I-5 http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=34.025406&lon=-118.205638 (note: I-5 needs a point here)
EucAve http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=34.026977&lon=-118.209661

1A http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=34.034066&lon=-118.221227 (note: shouldn't line up with any other freeways)
In any case, there is no access between US 101 and I-10, so we shouldn't have a waypoint that includes I-10.
Then 1A -> 1B, 1B -> 1C. The separate northbound 1C (not currently included) is arguably part of 1E.

Can someone explain how this makes sense? http://travelmapping.net/hb/?r=or.ca161&lat=41.999&lon=-121.6&zoom=17

Part of CA 161 is clearly in California, and part follows the state line more or less (with perhaps a slight dive or two into California). The latter is treated as a California route in Oregon, for simplicity and to avoid wasting time on where the border is (unsafe to assume it's where it's supposed to be, in this case at the 42nd parallel, as we've found in other jurisdictions) and whether the road is exactly on top of the border or is merely really close.
So the road is along the state line (more or less), perhaps dipping fully into California, and so is put in Oregon?

I would suggest it's much more logical to not break the route, and ignore any possible slight dips into Oregon that might exist. And given that you think that perhaps the road slightly dips into California (not Oregon), I can't see why it would be put in Oregon.

Going along it in GMSV, it's very close to the 42nd parallel, but almost always slightly south of it. Driving west (so on the northern side of the road), it crosses the 42nd by MM12 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@42.0000027,-121.6590032,3a,75y,287.72h,81.71t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s1bN8TxTL9_hoXclhb0p2kg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en), and again at the obvious bend (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.9999681,-121.7170289,3a,75y,242.39h,76.78t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sEJD5tYaCTn7EhMjRpp03OQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en) when you've cut the route.

So you could have it as ~1.5 miles as an Oregon section. But it doesn't get more than about 220ft north of the 42nd, so perhaps it could be all treated as California, like how the ~350ft south of the 42nd on this route is currently treated as Oregon.

I'm now inclined to unsplit CA 161, and treat it all as being within California even if parts of at least the westbound lane might be in Oregon.

This all might be a leftover from when we were using Google Maps for our base maps. GM still puts much of the eastern part of CA 161 in Oregon (https://goo.gl/maps/xJtQ4S1vv32mXm6H6), even if not by much. But then, I am particularly distrustful of how GM handles borders, based on its misplacement of the Alberta/Northwest Territories border, which differed from the handheld GPS measurements I took on several intersections of NT 5 with the border.

@Bickendan, your thoughts? Your conversations with Oregon DOT had CA 139 turning into OR 139 exactly at State Line Rd., despite a "Welcome to California" sign north of State Line Rd.

Mormon Emigrant Trail is Forest Service, not a national park road. It also had, last I was there, clear US 50 Alt signage (WB near CA 88). On the state-maintained parts of US50altpol (CA 88 and CA 89), I've seen the US 50 Alt sign assemblies still standing, sometimes with the signs covered.

Caltrans is planning major repairs to the US 50 mainline that would require a complete temporary closure of part of the route (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=20567.msg2238127#msg2238127). That would have a similar impact on travelers as did the landslides that prompted creation of the alternate route. Wouldn't shock me if US50altpol becomes a detour route (Caltrans is looking at an even longer detour limited to state-maintained routes), though that might require Caltrans to provide snow removal for a road that normally is never plowed and sometimes is closed by snow as late as early July.

I agree the route is iffy (uncomfortably similar to Wisconsin's plethora of Alternate I-__ routes), but I'm not convinced it's toast.

Can someone explain how this makes sense? http://travelmapping.net/hb/?r=or.ca161&lat=41.999&lon=-121.6&zoom=17

Part of CA 161 is clearly in California, and part follows the state line more or less (with perhaps a slight dive or two into California). The latter is treated as a California route in Oregon, for simplicity and to avoid wasting time on where the border is (unsafe to assume it's where it's supposed to be, in this case at the 42nd parallel, as we've found in other jurisdictions) and whether the road is exactly on top of the border or is merely really close.
So the road is along the state line (more or less), perhaps dipping fully into California, and so is put in Oregon?

I would suggest it's much more logical to not break the route, and ignore any possible slight dips into Oregon that might exist. And given that you think that perhaps the road slightly dips into California (not Oregon), I can't see why it would be put in Oregon.

Going along it in GMSV, it's very close to the 42nd parallel, but almost always slightly south of it. Driving west (so on the northern side of the road), it crosses the 42nd by MM12 (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@42.0000027,-121.6590032,3a,75y,287.72h,81.71t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s1bN8TxTL9_hoXclhb0p2kg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en), and again at the obvious bend (https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@41.9999681,-121.7170289,3a,75y,242.39h,76.78t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sEJD5tYaCTn7EhMjRpp03OQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en) when you've cut the route.

So you could have it as ~1.5 miles as an Oregon section. But it doesn't get more than about 220ft north of the 42nd, so perhaps it could be all treated as California, like how the ~350ft south of the 42nd on this route is currently treated as Oregon.

I'm now inclined to unsplit CA 161, and treat it all as being within California even if parts of at least the westbound lane might be in Oregon.

This all might be a leftover from when we were using Google Maps for our base maps. GM still puts much of the eastern part of CA 161 in Oregon (https://goo.gl/maps/xJtQ4S1vv32mXm6H6), even if not by much. But then, I am particularly distrustful of how GM handles borders, based on its misplacement of the Alberta/Northwest Territories border, which differed from the handheld GPS measurements I took on several intersections of NT 5 with the border.

@Bickendan, your thoughts? Your conversations with Oregon DOT had CA 139 turning into OR 139 exactly at State Line Rd., despite a "Welcome to California" sign north of State Line Rd.
Yes, the transition from CA 139 to ORH 426/OR 39 is at State Line Rd/CA 161.
And, (paraphrasing from memory from a phone conversation with CalTrans), 161 does straddle the border on its eastern leg.
That's why I drafted the two files, the California portion representing the entire roadway from US 97 to CA 139/OR 39, and a east to west file from CA 139/OR 39 running west to the dive point for the westbound lane in Oregon.

Technically speaking, this means that OR 452 (http://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?units=miles&u=bickendan&r=or.or452) and 454 (http://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?units=miles&u=bickendan&r=or.or454) should have a similar setup; in 452's case I'm not sure it's even worth it, and either way, that's dealing with the unsigned routes/ORH debate.

Should we add 54bus in El Cajon? It's signed, though with the wrong shield.

I-5: 667 -> 667A
I-5: 698A and 698B are one interchange

I-10: 1 should probably be deleted; postmiles begin at 1A
I-10: 1B -> 1C (or split in two)
I-10: 2C -> 2B
I-10: move 6 west to Robertson Boulevard underpass
I-10: in both directions, 12A (Normandie) is signed to leave at the same place as 11 (Western), so 11 -> 11A, 12 -> 11B, 12B -> 12A, 12C -> 12B
I-10: 13 -> 13A, add 13B at Grand/Olive?
I-10: 134C(5) -> I-5_S (there's no I-5 exit number here)
I-10: 135C(5) -> 19B
I-10: add 19A at State Street?
I-10: move 20A west to Herbert Avenue
I-10: move 22 west to underpass
I-10: move 31C west to overpass
I-10: add 77A at Alabama Street and 77C at Tennessee Street, 77 -> 77B
I-10: move 139 east to new overpass
I-10: move 162 west to overpass
I-10: move 182 west to overpass
I-10: add 242

I-15: add HilDr between 15 and 16
I-15: add SabSprSta between 18 and 19
I-15: add GeoCooDr between 23 and 24
I-15: 117 -> 118

I-80: move 29C north to overpass
I-80: move 31A north to overpass

US 50altpol doesn't exist anymore. Maybe the center portion could be kept as MorEmiTr in usanp?

Mormon Emigrant Trail is Forest Service, not a national park road.
A bit moot if it's still signed as US50Alt, but, from the usanp thread:

I know this isn't a national park road, but one that could be considered - Woodlands Trace National Scenic Byway.  This (nor the land within) are managed by NPS - instead by US Forest Service, but it is a good park route that goes through the Land Btw The Lakes NRA in both Kentucky and Tennessee - also known (and marked as in OSM/Mapnick) as "The Trace".
I've added this as:
1) it's a decent route to have added (links state routes, etc)
2) NRAs are sometimes NPS-run, sometimes USFS (and one is someone else), so a road in a USFS-run NRA isn't too off-piste. It's not much different to where a city maintains a state route.
3) we're not doing a one route usafs system (maybe it might get moved into a usansb system) - though no doubt someone else will give another example of another one.
I would say the Mormon Emigration Trail fits the usanp criteria, even though the agency isn't the NPS, but the USFS.

I-5: make StoDr visible

My problem is that StoDr only has an on-ramp to NB I-5, but no exit from either direction of I-5. Caltrans accordingly has not posted or assigned an exit number. StoDr would be weird on a long all-freeway route where every waypoint label between the Mexico and Oregon borders is an exit number-based interchange number.

A shaping point is needed somewhere in the vicinity of StoDr, so I can't just remove the point. It also doesn't seem part of the CA 1 interchange (waypoint 79) or any other.

More to follow as I recover from my vacation.

Based on what rickmastfan67 did with I-4 (http://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?units=miles&u=markkos1992&r=fl.i004) and mapmikey did previously with I-495 (http://travelmapping.net/hb/index.php?units=miles&u=markkos1992&r=va.i495), I would go with StoDr.  I will note that I did not check to see if it was in the footprint of another interchange in which the one point per interchange rule may apply.

Only did it that way because of it being for the 'future' I-4 Express lanes (and what signage posted ATM lists no number), but was partially opened as a detour route for 75B ramps that were being re-configured.  Plus it will be a 'full' interchange with a road that's completely separate from 75B.

NJ I-80 also semi-recently went to named labels instead of "fake" numbers for a few points near its W end.

StoDr would be weird on a long all-freeway route where every waypoint label between the Mexico and Oregon borders is an exit number-based interchange number.
I definitely sympathize with this though. Made me grit my teeth a bit when I did it...

58busbor: the west end is at exit 196 (https://www.google.com/maps/@35.0066259,-117.7095777,3a,18.9y,97.38h,90.01t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sB1YLN8yqLOufH0ugj-dirQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192), so CA58(193) and GepRd get deleted and BorRd -> 20MuleRd_W

West end is clear enough, and will be changed. East end is more of a puzzle, now that CA 58 (including the part that connected with the business route) has been relocated as part of the just-opened Kramer Junction bypass project. The now-bypassed old connection was signed from what is now Old Highway 58, but May 2019 GMSV (before completion of the Kramer Junction bypass) doesn't show a new east end at CA58(199), or at US 395 in Kramer Junction. Or Caltrans could just effectively decommission the Boron business route by removing its signage at CA58(196).

I've posted a query at the AARoads forum, maybe someone has driven through Boron since the bypass opened and noticed a signage change at CA58(199). Otherwise, I'll leave the east end of the business route dangling at Old Highway 58 for now, until we find out more about how the Kramer Junction project collaterally affects the business route.

I'll make the above changes, as well as edits to the CA 58 and US 395 route files for the new Kramer Junction bypass.

https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/3535 includes various spot changes here and there in CA. These are just a start on catching up with peer review changes, as I recover from a prolonged low-level illness.

The most significant changes are in the Kramer Junction area. CA 58 was relocated there to a new freeway. Also, I had the west end of CA58 Business (Boron) at the wrong exit from CA 58, and that will be fixed. I've left alone the east end of that business route, at the old CA 58 alignment, until I find out more about how it's affected by the new Kramer Junction bypass.

Also some (not all) label fixes for CA 1, CA 2, CA 29, CA 49, CA 49 Historic (San Andreas -- all changes made for that short route), and I-5, and a typo fix for I-305.

Pull request submitted for changes to CA 161 and CA 260, as well as a few minor changes in Canada:

https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/3586

The main change is to merge or.ca161.wpt into ca.ca161.wpt, so that CA 161 is treated as a California-only route rather than part in California and part (technically, at least the westbound lane) in Oregon. ca.ca161.wpt now will also have the waypoints that were in or.ca161.wpt, which will be deleted.

This change will break any list file (including my own) with a line for OR CA161. Just edit your CA CA161 line to replace CA/OR with the east endpoint of your OR CA161 entry (for most of you, CA139/39; for at least one user, MerRd).

I also deleted CA 260 in Oakland, which was a duplicate of the CA 61 (Posey/Webster Tubes) segment. This treats CA 260 like CA 51 and CA 164 (those routes still exist on paper, but are signed as something else). This change should not break any list files (including my own), with your CA 260 mileage auto-credited to CA 61 (Posey/Webster),

I gotta play some major catch-up on this thread as well as a few others.

Is CA79 one of those routes with local relinquishments that have either already happened or are planned for the future, with a final decision on whether to split up or keep as one route TBD? (Is there any discussion on CA79 upthread?)

In any case, a few "Lim" labels with parentheses look suspicious (nonstandard use of parens or endpoint label styles, too many words)...
TemLim(ELim)
TemLim(NLim)
MenAve(SanJacSLim)
End(SanJacOldNLim)

If they're being kept around as notes for future reference, suggest hiding them.

^ Right now, I'm focused on getting canqc ready to activate (likely by the end of the month), before turning my attention to usaca.

Those Lim labels indeed reflect relinquishments that have already occurred. I think the one in Temecula should be ignored, since the original route is easy to follow, and there's signage for the relinquished segment on I-15. The one in San Jacinto will likely warrant a route split, since you have to take several unsigned turns to follow the original route, and I got thoroughly lost when trying to clinch the route there several years ago. That's similar to the situation in Sacramento with CA 160, though an End 160 sign at the south end of the relinquishment sealed the deal for me, so I made that route split already.

I need to catch up on possible plans for CA 79 to be completely rerouted to avoid the mess in San Jacinto.

EDIT: There is indeed a plan, which has cleared environmental approvals, that would have CA 79 bypass the downtowns of both San Jacinto and Hemet, and also might reroute part of CA 74. However, the plan remains stalled in the pre-construction phase pending funding for the non-local half of project costs.

Can confirm that as of this past week said sign is still there, albeit a bit beat up.

Truncating CA 203 to this point would also impact its continuity with MinSumRd in usanp, for which I see two practical options:
1) Extend MinSumRd down to the END CA 203 sign.
2) Delete MinSumRd

I favor option 2 given that it's not even in a national park.

Complicating things is that Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool shows CA 203 ending where the HB has it, at the Madera/Mono county line. The highway is often closed to most motorists between the ski area and the county line, by snow in the winter or reserved for Devil's Postpile shuttle buses in the summer. But I was able to drive out to the county line one autumn day (forget which year, but it was in the past few years).

I usually rely on the PQT to nail down route endpoints.

I don't have a strong opinion either way on whether it deserves inclusion, but on the OSM map tiles, it doesn't look like it enters the national monument, just a road to the national monument's access road and some nearby campgrounds.

You're right, my bad. The National Park Service website confirms. The route is entirely within Inyo National Forest.

There are other usanp routes including mileage outside national parks/other Park Service properties, that should be less of an issue. The most notable, of the ones in California I added to usanp, is the Generals Highway, which is a scenic shortcut between Kings Canyon and Sequoia national parks. The highway starts in Sequoia NP and ends in Kings Canyon NP, but passes through a significant gap between the parks that is within Forest Service jurisdiction.

CA CA73 18A 18B - Does this concurrency really exist?
Title: Re: usaca: California State Highways
Post by: oscar on January 03, 2021, 08:05:30 pm
The California Transportation Commission has approved the relocation of CA 58 between I-5 and CA 99, from the McKittrick and Rosedale Highways and part of CA 43, south to parts of the Stockdale Highway (county road) and the Westside Parkway (locally-maintained freeway, already in the usasf route set). See https://www.cahighways.org/ROUTE058.html for all the mind-numbing details.

Part of the Westside Parkway hasn't yet been adopted into the state highway system (apparently because Caltrans thinks the part east of Coffee Rd. needs improvements before it can be adopted at a later date), and the easternmost part completing the Parkway's connection to CA 99 and the rest of CA 58 is still under construction. I'll take some time to figure out how and when to implement the reroute in the HB. That might include a split of CA 58, a Buttonwillow segment between US 101 and Coffee Rd. in Bakersfield, and a Tehachapi segment between CA 99 and I-15, until the gap between those segments is filled.

I'm not surprised by the long-rumored CA 58 reroute. Indeed, I've already traveled the new route between I-5 and Coffee Rd. (plus the rest of the Westside Parkway that is open to traffic) on a recent visit to California.

My guess is not. But that depends on how and when the route relocation is fully implemented (this all was approved in December just before the holidays), which AFAIK hasn't yet happened. It might take a few months or more.

The only immediate action any of us should take is for travelers between I-5 and Bakersfield not to bother with clinching the old route, and instead focus on the new route (including the part of the Westside Parkway not yet added to the state highway system).

Going into my queue for usaca updates is removal of the eastern segment of CA 146 (ca146pin), connecting the eastern entrance of Pinnacles National Park to CA 25. That CA 146 segment once was signed to the former east entrance station for the park, about 2.3 miles from CA 25. Since then, the park has expanded, and the park's website shows the entrance station has been moved to within a quarter-mile of CA 25. A recent field report (https://www.facebook.com/72868503020/posts/10156790760968021/?d=n) (no GMSV confirmation, no camera car has been out that way since the early 2010s) confirms that all route markers and postmiles for ca146pin have been removed. The road may technically remain on Caltrans' books (per the Postmile Query Tool), but since it's unsigned we can go ahead and remove it from the HB.

We could move the deleted ca146pin segment into the usanp route set, but I don't see much point in that. There isn't a lot of pavement in Pinnacles NP, which is set up for hiking rather than driving tours. A network of hiking trails, off-limits to motor vehicles, has long been the only direct connection between the west and east sides of the park.

TM currently has the south end of CA 17 in Santa Cruz at the point where Santa Cruz Highway drops down and becomes Ocean Street. The south end of 17 should be moved further north, to the trumpet interchange (current waypoint 1B).

According to Caltrans's postmile query tool (https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/PMQT/PostmileQueryTool.html?), the freeway between Ocean Street and the point where 17 comes off is only CA 1. Postmile 0.0 on 17 is located at the north trumpet. Despite what OSM might say, that exit to Ocean Street appears to not be part of 17.

That's the routing we had for CA 14 Truck, which is exactly the same as we have for I-5 Truck. 

Truck traffic between CA 14 and I-5 follows the I-5 truck route, and its own set of ramps connecting it to CA 14. But those ramps don't constitute a separate route. Caltrans' logs identify the I-5 truck route as a route separate from I-5, route 5S following an old US 99 alignment bypassed by the I-5 mainline. There is no 14S, or other route 14 auxiliary route, in the logs.

There is CA 14U, which is signed as such (as well as part of Historic US 6) and has its own entry in the HB. But that's not a truck route, just an old CA 14 surface alignment through Santa Clarita. Caltrans would like to dump it on the city now that CA 14 bypasses the city on a newer freeway, but the city has been unusually balky about taking over maintenance, unlike what Los Angeles County did for the rest of old CA 14/Historic US 6 in the county.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I have some extensive comments from another forum member, which I'm working through and probably is the last step to making the usaca system "active". I found some of the transportation concept reports very helpful, including clarifying the route network in the Long Beach area (the state-owned replacement for the city-owned old Gerald Desmond Bridge really helps, too).

We're not covering old routings for state routes, except for some unusual CA 49 historic routes (explicitly signed as such, with "Historic" banners above green spade shields, and treated like similarly-signed business routes).

I think omitting CA 259 is defensible, but I welcome any excuse for putting it back in the HB. It helps that it once was signed.

Let's see if that new signage turns out to be more permanent than the temporary construction-zone CA 114 route marker, which soon disappeared and along with it the CA 114 entry in the HB.

As for the CA 710 stub in Pasadena, local officials seem to want it demolished, rather than just left unsigned and disconnected from I-710.

It looks like the I-710 spur in Pasadena should still be included.  It is still included in the California Streets and Highways Code.  (Article 3, section 622)

^ Our standard practice for state routes is not to include unsigned routes, or disconnected route segments, even if they're state-maintained and legislatively-defined. That's why the Pasadena stub of route 710 is omitted. Ditto routes 222, 225, 244, and 259 (that last might change, as discussed above, in view of new signage), and some others. Unsigned Interstates, like I-305 in Sacramento, are OK per the webmaster for the predecessor site to TM (who decided that unsigned Interstates should be on the site, but not unsigned state routes).

Our treatment of unsigned routes is a subject of much discussion on this forum, and some heartburn such as with the saga of CA 259.

BTW, the legislative definition of route 710 extends (S&H Code section 622.1) south past route 1 to route 47. Our site includes route 710 south of route 1, initially to Ocean Blvd. in Long Beach and later (upon opening of the state-maintained replacement for the being-demolished Gerald Desmond Bridge) to CA 47 on Terminal Island.

Surprised to see nothing on cahwys.org... Seemed to me that the 259's the northern(eastern)most reach of the San Bernadino Freeway, as the SBD swings north from the 10 onto the 215 through downtown SBD.
If it were included in usasf on the basis of being the SBD Freeway, doing the entire named route from the 101 out to the 210 would ensure the omitted 101-10 connector, but that's a bit extreme, both with the overlap over the 10 and 215, but also because it'd open up the can of worms of including the other named freeways.

cahighways.org is pretty thorough, and AFAIK it doesn't document the use of the San Bernardino Freeway name anywhere except on route 10 (including its short non-Interstate segment near downtown Los Angeles) (https://www.cahighways.org/names.html). It indicates that I-215 north of I-10 has only other names.

Even if I-215 were part of the SBD, where's the evidence that the minor CA 259 freeway is also part of the SBD?

Not in https://dot.ca.gov/-/media/dot-media/programs/research-innovation-system-information/documents/place-names/web-2019-named-freeways-final-a11y.pdf, which has the San Bernardino Freeway only on route 10, only other names on route 215, and none at all for route 259.

And there's still the issue of its short length, especially with concerns that the usasf system is not "select" enough (https://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=3480.0) and we should be more conservative about making additions to that system.

ISTM that CA 259 goes back into the HB as CA 259 in usaca, or not at all. At least we now have one current CA 259 sign reported in the field (even if perhaps a contractor "error") to work with.

I'd like to contribute some food for thought on SR-259.  As we all know, the green wayfinding signage on the SR-259 mainline is silent about which route you are on.  The few sign that there are say "TO SR-210" or "TO SR-330".  This does not indicate the route you are actually on.  However, there are other markings that indicate you are on SR-259. 
1. The callboxes are clearly labeled as being on 259. 
2. The white identification signage beside all (most?) of the over and under crossings are clearly labeled with the route, county, and postmile.
     -  Highland Ave. UC is 259, SBD, 00.49 (NB dir)
     - 27th Street UC is 259, SBD, 00.81 (NB dir)
     - H Street UC is 259, SBD, 01.00 (SB dir)
     - 259/210 Sep is 259, SBD, 1.19 (SB dir)
3. The exit numbers correspond with the SR-259 postmiles.
4. The Caltrans TASAS Sequence Listing is the official system of record for all Caltrans state highways.  The Sequence Listing lists SR-259 in its entire length from PM L0.0 to PM 1.515.  According to the Sequence Listing, SR-259 begins at I-215 just south of the SB offramp to Baseline. The NB direction ends at SR-210 and the SB direction ends at 30th Street. 

Hopefully this is helpful.

^ Our rule on unsigned routes focuses on whether there are conventional route markers, that the traveling public can readily use to confirm the route they are on and navigate the highway system. Callbox signs are too hard to read, at speed, to perform that function. The white identification signs, as well as standard postmiles, also aren't much better, usually too low to the ground and with small hard-to-read numbers to guide travelers. Better than nothing, but no consensus within our team that they are enough. They do help confirm the existence, extent, and number of a state route, but in California we have better resources for that function, such as the online Postmile Query Tool.

The new CA 259 route marker mentioned upthread is more encouraging. I'm waiting to see a photo, and also whether it lasts longer than temporary construction zone route signage we've seen (but not for long) for otherwise unsigned highways like CA 114 in the Bay Area.

Understood.  I wanted to add some other points to consider.  SR-259 is a quandary.  It is obviously a state highway (full freeway), but is has no wayfinding signage to identify it.  As a freeway, it also doesn't fall into the same classification as unsigned conventional highways, such as CA 114 and many others that function as, and are basically indistinguishable from city streets.  SR-259 may have to be an exception to the rule as nothing else seems to work with this particular highway.  We can look to the Bay Area of other exceptions to the rules.  Examples are the fact that we have a freeway named I-238, and the postmiles on I-580 run backward (east to west).

Anyway, as a newcomer to this discussion, just food for thought.

CA 271: We have it split into two segments, Piercy and Legget. As it's not marked as an overlap on US 101 between the two segments, it makes sense to have it as two distinct segments.
However, the Piercy segment's postmiles (17-23ish) suggest that it is overlapped on 101, even if unsigned on 101 as such. With this being the case, it may make sense to combine the two 271 segments into one.

CA162Oro: TehSt -> I-5BL

No BL signage at that intersection, and the BL's signage overall is weak (though not enough to deep-six the route). So I thought it made sense to name the label for the well-signed cross-street name.

Some more stuff about CA-125 I just noticed.

Seems we have a false multiplex with CA-94 as well ('current' points 15 to 17 in CA-125's file since NE2's corrections haven't been applied yet).  Pretty clear by imagery that they are both separate highways here and don't at any point share the same carriageways, and thus shouldn't have the 0.62 mile mulitplex.

The fix here should be the following:
1) Add a hidden shaping point between the two points on CA-125 (& fix the exit numbers of course) to break the mulitplex.
2) Add a hidden shaping point between the two points on CA-94 (9A/9C) to break the mulitplex.

Users with CA 125 waypoints 18A and 18B in their list files should, after the update is processed, make sure your travels are accurately shown in the HB, since exit number changes in the vicinity of I-8 may have broken your list files.

I noticed the two different exit numbers for the same interchange, not the first time Caltrans has done something like that. I went with the lower number 18C. No change needed, I think.

^ Thanks! I was concerned, from initial reports, that the CA 259 markers were part of temporary construction signs. But it looks like the markers are more permanent than that, unless the contractor or CalTrans goes out of its way to also remove the markers when it removes at year's end the orange overnight closure signs.

I plan to add CA 259 back to the HB later this month, once I recover from my latest road trip.

There is inconsistent signage on Mineral King, but on Noble signage seems to direct CA 63 traffic onto the 198 freeway.

I also checked Caltrans' online Postmile Query Tool. It indicates that southbound CA 63 follows Mineral King only for the short distances between Locust St. and the onramp onto the 198 freeway, and between the offramp from the freeway and Mooney Blvd. Between the onramp and the offramp, Mineral King is not part of CA 63. Similar situation for Noble and northbound CA 63. GMSV shows no CA 63 signage between those ramps on Mineral King, or Noble -- only, as noted above, on the 198 freeway.

TX158/191 is just a case I wasn't aware of. Certainly didn't check that 158 stayed on the frontage roads rather than a quick hop onto the mainlanes; probably glossed over this segment altogether. Much like the recently-broken MA US20 @ I-91. I'll break this (https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/5153) with an autoshape (https://github.com/yakra/tmtools/tree/master/autoshape) point.

based on Texas' frontage roads basically being part of the freeway (in my understanding,
For multiplex purposes, the frontage roads are not part of the freeway.
In terms of point placement, they "are and are not" -- points are mostly placed as they would be if frontage roads didn't exist.

which would keep TX Loop 250 clinched for me as the freeway gets extended.
Well, you do get to decide what counts for your .list. ;)
If I had that segment, I might be tempted to keep it as some form of "sight clinch" once the mainlanes were built out. Maybe. Or I might let the moral dilemma push me into a state of indecision. [Chidi Anagonye meme] Man. Glad I don't have any of TXLp250 clinched. :D
Though I think there was a place (a new bridge?) in Cleveland where I-90 shifted laterally onto a new alignment. I'm keeping it; I want my nationwide clinch, dammit!

My guess is that this is generally the case throughout Texas.)
SOP in Texas has been to break concurrencies between mainlanes & frontage roads when there are different designated routes on each. Canonical example is TX130 & US183.



Back on topic, I haven't checked out the usaca example that led to all this. Might do that soon.
Edit: Sounds like CA's different from TX, and keeping the multiplex is appropriate.

CA 99 Business routes. Ugh. I headed up the valley to have dinner with some family and tried to catch as many of the CA99 business routes as I could on the return trip. And I found a mess.

Note that this was southbound only, and it was already dark, so I may have missed a few signs.

Turlock: Did not see a sign on CA99 (however, I came at this one from the south). Did not see any signs along the route in the HB.
Atwater: Saw CA99 Business sign at Exit 196, but no signage along route in the HB.
Merced: Did not see a sign at the exit, but was decently signed.
Madera: Did not see a sign at the exit, but saw a couple of signs in town.
Fowler: Did not see a sign at the exit, nor in town. No signage at the turns, either.
Selma: Did not see a sign at the exit, nor in town. No signage at the turns, either.

Also, I believe the current rule regarding endpoints on bannered routes is to use the parent route with _N, _S, _E, or _W as appropriate (instead of the exit numbers, as these are).

Incidentally, there is a sign along CA198 westbound regarding a business route in Hanford (follow Lacey Ave), but I saw no signs along Lacey, nor any signs heading eastbound on 198.

^ Most California business routes are bypassed segments of state-maintained routes, turned over to local maintenance after the mainline was moved to a new freeway. (Notable exception is the state-maintained CA 51 freeway in Sacramento, which is officially signed as I-80 Business.) The only state maintenance of most business routes is of signage on the freeway pointing to the business route. When that completely disappears, I've treated that as a decommission and removed the route from the HB. The maintenance of other signage is, to say the least, uneven.

Also, a lot of business route signage is old and lost much of its reflectorization, so it might be hard to see in the dark.

I did a pretty thorough field check of the business routes, when I spent a lot of time in California in summer 2017. I pruned routes from the HB at that point, but was satisfied that there was at least barely adequate signage of those that remained.

Hi all, I just got back from a trip to Palm Springs and just noticed the following discrepancies between the state highways there and what is shown in the database.

CA74: the highway starts at the intersection of CA111, but the route in the database shows it starting at "PalmDesLim". I drove on this stretch from CA111 to Haystack Rd and it was signed as CA74.

CA111: The state highway is split across CA111(Calexico) and CA111(Palm Springs), but neither of those entries have a large stretch of CA111 between Palm Springs and the intersection of CA111 and CA86 (just north of the Salton Sea). For much of that stretch through Palm Desert and Indio the route is captured by US99HisInd, but the section between Cesar Chavez St and 66th Ave in Mecca isn't on any route. CA111 (Calexico) instead turns onto 66th Ave and ends at CA86. I drove much of the missing stretch of CA111 and it was certainly labeled as a state highway.

The state legislature removed that "missing stretch" from the state highway system, and turned it over to the relevant local jurisdictions. Per section 411(b) of the California Streets and Highway Code:

Quote
(b) The relinquished former portions of Route 111 within the unincorporated area of the County of Riverside and the Cities of Cathedral City, Coachella, Indian Wells, Indio, La Quinta, Palm Desert, and Rancho Mirage are not state highways and are not eligible for adoption under Section 81. For the relinquished former portions of Route 111, the County of Riverside and the Cities of Cathedral City, Coachella, Indian Wells, Indio, La Quinta, and Palm Desert, as applicable, shall maintain within their respective jurisdictions signs directing motorists to the continuation of Route 111 and shall ensure the continuity of traffic flow on the relinquished portions of Route 111, including any traffic signal progression.

That last sentence might justify un-breaking the two route 111 segments, as I've done elsewhere. However, last I was there, I saw no route 111 signage in the gap, and certainly no conventional green and white route markers, except in places some "Highway 111" overhead street blades (not identifying the road as part of a state route) that would be visible to motorists on intersecting streets but hard to see by motorists traveling former route 111.

CA74: the highway starts at the intersection of CA111, but the route in the database shows it starting at "PalmDesLim". I drove on this stretch from CA111 to Haystack Rd and it was signed as CA74.

Route 74 within Palm Desert was relinquished to the city, by Streets and Highway Code section 374, with similar language on the locality's obligations to direct travelers to the unrelinquished part of the route. Last I was there, there was zero route 74 signage within city limits.

Once I return from vacation (not in California), I'll have to take a look at whether the signage has improved for these route segments. If you took any photos, or can point me to images on Google Maps Street View, that would help.

I did not take any pictures, but I did find on google street view that there are street signs saying Highway 74 at the intersection of CA111 and CA74and at the intersection of Haystack and CA74 in Palm Desert.

Maybe the situations is similar with that other stretch of 111. I don't remember seeing any green/white sign markers but I sure remember the road being referred to as CA111 in that stretch.

The thing is a street sign blade saying "Highway 74" or "Highway 111" in plain text doesn't count - it just stipulates that is the legal name of the road, it's not a route sign.

I can note since I was just there that there is not signage for CA 74 within the limits of Palm Desert, though there also isn't an end sign. 111 meanwhile is properly and thoroughly signed as making the turn onto 66th Ave at Mecca to end at 86, and not continuing on its historical alignment (likewise, was just there).


Anyway while I'm here let me throw out an additional note: the "CA29" label on CA175 should probably be CA29_E

Most recently, before CA 111 was relinquished between Palm Springs and Mecca, CA 111 was routed along the CA 86 expressway and a small part of I-10, with Golf Center Parkway in Indio providing the connection to old 111. That CA 111 signage is gone, including in particular on the Golf Center connector needed for travelers to follow that version of the old alignment.

A more basic problem is that even if the overhead Highway 111 street blades (which can be hard for motorists to see anyway, if they're trying to follow old 111) were good enough, they don't cover the entire long gap between Palm Springs and Mecca. Highway 111 street blades exist in Palm Desert, Indian Wells, and Indio (but not Golf Center Parkway), but not in Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Coachella, or Thermal. With no signage continuity between the unrelinquished 111 segments in Palm Springs and from Mecca southward, or other ways for travelers to follow the connection on either of the old routings, ISTM most reasonable to break 111 in two, following the legal and clearly-signed definition of the route.

As for 74 in Palm Desert, if 111 were still adequately signed between Palm Springs and Mecca, we might stretch to use the Highway 74 signs to preserve the connection. But since we're not including in the HB the disconnected Palm Desert(/Indian Wells/Indio) segment of old 111, there's no connection to preserve.

175: why CA29_S but E/W for BotRockRd?

CA29_S is sub-optimal, should be CA29 (with existing CA29 point renamed to CA29_E). But CA29 is a label in use, so kept and hidden it where it was, with CA29_S left as is, to avoid breaking several list files.

I've been addressing the peer-review edits piecemeal as time permits, either as part of updates/cleanups of some of the longer state routes, or when I need to make other changes to a shorter route like CA 175 I'll also work in peer-review changes while I'm at it.

The biggest obstacle has been with dealing with partial relinquishments of state routes (for one example, see the recent discussion started by rmatley), which was a hot trend among state lawmakers but seems to have slowed down lately. I've settled on the general approach to handling relinquishments, as outlined here and there in this topic. I just need to catch up with any new relinquishments and details on old ones in southern California (some of which may also require tweaks to preview historic U.S. routes).

Activation of the less complicated canqc system (peer-reviewed at the same time as usaca) moved quickly, since I was stuck at home for several months due to the pandemic, so I just made that my "pandemic project". Then I got busy with other projects, including some more field checking and resulting updates for usaca as well as usanv.

I agree list files can be broken as needed for preview systems. But it's not really needed in this instance.

Several users have CA29 in their list file entries for CA 175. You are one of them. At least one of the others doesn't update list files nearly as often as you and I.

We (should) always try to avoid breaking list files (https://travelmapping.net/devel/manual/maintenance.php#break). If we have to break list files, changes to active routes are newsworthy, changes to preview route are not (some of us indicate it on the forum or Github though).

For users, the only difference between preview and active systems are update entries - which are very important IMO.
For highway data managers, active systems are usually peer-reviewed and thus deemed correct and complete to the best of our knowledge according to our TM rules.

CA 187 (Venice Blvd. in Los Angeles) has apparently been relinquished in its entirety to the city of Los Angeles, removing the route from the state highway system. This has been in the works for some time (authorized by the state legislature in 2015, agreement between Caltrans and the city in 2016), but it took awhile to carry out the agreement. CA 187 has disappeared from Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=31456.msg2733699#msg2733699), which indicates the relinquishment finally has taken effect.

I'll remove CA 187 from the HB, after checking whether I need to make other such changes.

UPDATE: Change now in HB.
Title: Re: usaca: California State Highways
Post by: oscar on May 08, 2022, 07:15:37 pm
The California Transportation Commission has approved the relocation of CA 58 between I-5 and CA 99, from the McKittrick and Rosedale Highways and part of CA 43, south to parts of the Stockdale Highway (county road) and the Westside Parkway (locally-maintained freeway, already in the usasf route set). See https://www.cahighways.org/ROUTE058.html for all the mind-numbing details.

Part of the Westside Parkway hasn't yet been adopted into the state highway system (apparently because Caltrans thinks the part east of Coffee Rd. needs improvements before it can be adopted at a later date), and the easternmost part completing the Parkway's connection to CA 99 and the rest of CA 58 is still under construction. I'll take some time to figure out how and when to implement the reroute in the HB. That might include a split of CA 58, a Buttonwillow segment between US 101 and Coffee Rd. in Bakersfield, and a Tehachapi segment between CA 99 and I-15, until the gap between those segments is filled.

Is there a chance it could be like other routes that despite having non-Caltrans gaps, are still signed by a local jurisdiction & this included as one piece?

Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool now shows CA 58 following the two-lane Stockdale Highway from I-5 to the Westside Parkway, and most of the Westside Parkway (previously a county freeway) to the Coffee Rd. interchange. However, multiple freeway entrance signs shown in March 2022 GMSV indicates CA 58 not only includes the Parkway to Coffee Rd., but continues one more interchange east, to Mohawk St.

The PQT is consistent with Caltrans' formal adoption of the Westside Parkway into the state highway system only to Coffee Rd., as well as the Stockdale Hwy. from I-5 to the Westside Parkway. But while the PQT shows the Stockdale Hwy. as part of route 58, March 2022 GMSV imagery shows no CA 58 signs on the Stockdale Hwy., or on I-5 at or north of the Stockdale junction. This might be that the existing Stockdale Hwy. is planned to be just a temporary CA 58 alignment, to be replaced someday with a new alignment between I-5 and the Westside Pkwy.

Most of the existing CA 58 (Hageman Rd. and Rosedale Hwy.) between I-5 and CA 99 has been relinquished to the city of Bakersfield or Kern County, except the short section between Mohawk St. and CA 99, and the shorter section concurrent with CA 43. This confirmed by the PQT. State law includes the usual requirement that the local government maintain continuation signage to the rest of route 58. Some CA 58 signage has been removed, but some remains on the concurrency with CA 43 about midway between I-5 and CA 99. There also are no End signs confirming that the relinquished segments are no longer part of CA 58, like the one on CA 160 at the southern Sacramento city limit (http://www.alaskaroads.com/EndCA160+SacramentoCA+elev25ft-DSC_9404.jpg).

There remains an unbuilt gap between the east end of Westside Parkway and the southern CA 58/99 junction. This segment, called the Centennial Corridor, is being built for Caltrans, with expected completion in mid-2023.

For more, see Daniel Faigin's California Highways page on route 58 (https://cahighways.org/ROUTE058.htm).

My suggested fixes:

-- In keeping with yakra's suggestion, leave the existing CA 58 route file as is, to maintain route continuity while the Centennial Corridor is under construction.

-- Add a separate new CA 58 segment (ca.ca058wes), including the part of the Westside Parkway west of Coffee Rd., but not the Stockdale Hwy. between I-5 and the Westside Pkwy.

-- Leave the Westside Pkwy. in the HB as an active route in the U.S. Select Named Freeways (usasf) route set, partly concurrent with the new CA 58 segment.

All this will change (hopefully next year) with the completion of the Centennial Corridor, linking the Westside Pkwy. to CA 99 and points east on existing CA 58. This would create a continuous state-maintained CA 58 from US 101 to I-15, bypassing CA 58's old Rosedale Hwy. alignment.

^ The main rub is nailing down whether we need to break up routes that have been partially relinquished to local jurisdictions. We try to avoid that (especially for CA 1, to not break up that route into multiple pieces), but in some cases we couldn't. My approach to that differs from that in other similar jurisdictions like Florida, which also does route relinquishments but handles them differently from California.

On my to-do list is GMSV tour of routes (all in southern California) which I haven't recently field-checked, as well as updates on any new relinquishments authorized by the state legislature. Thankfully, the pace of new relinquishments seems to have slowed to a crawl.

Very recent GMSV imagery (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=11312.msg2759102#msg2759102) confirms that CA 58 signage now continues on Stockdale Highway all the way to the I-5 junction, with one sign on westbound Stockdale stating that CA 58 follows I-5 north to the rest of CA 58.

I'll add the Stockdale Highway from I-5 to the Westside Pkwy. to CA 58's Westside Pkwy. segment. That won't connect to CA 58 east of CA 99 until next year at the earliest, so it's not yet time to completely reroute CA 58 to the Stockdale/Westside/future Centennial Corridor alignment.

Mid-route relinquishments do come with legal mandates for the local jurisdiction to continue signing the route. Said jurisdictions aren't always good at complying with these mandates but... nonetheless, it's functionally no different than the existence of locally maintained sections of route in any other state. CA just has an oddball way of handling it administratively.

Anything in particular that needs to be field checked?

I'd need to compile a list of the mid-route relinquishments in Los Angeles and Ventura counties, and maybe some adjacent counties, I haven't already field-checked in my recent travels covering most of the rest of California. (Whole-route and end-of-route relinquishments are easier, I'm presumptively treating them as decommissions/truncations). That means a review of the legislative route definitions in the state Streets and Highways Code (the California Highways website quotes the key provisions). Also, using Caltrans' Postmile Query Tool to help determine which relinquishments have been carried out (like CA 187, already removed from the HB), and which might never be carried out much as the legislature might want them to happen.

The California Highways site can help narrow what needs a GMSV review, but I know what to look for. Once that's done, the  GMSV review is tedious but easier to hand off.

Quebec does relinquishments too, but normally leaves locally-maintained segments in the provincial highway route system. That made my life easier when I finalized and activated canqc.

CA just has an oddball way of handling it administratively.

Except where Caltrans posts an END sign at one or both ends of the relinquishment, as with the End CA 160 sign assembly at Sacramento's southern city limit. Or where the local government not only fails to maintain route signage, but that makes it difficult for motorists to follow the (former) route winding through a maze of city streets (like CA 160 in downtown Sacramento -- though some of the former route there has excellent Historic US 40 signage -- or CA 79 in San Jacinto). Or where the state has non-standard continuation signage mandates, like in Hayward which had several surface routes passing through the city, but now looks to motorists like a big hole in the non-freeway part of the state highway system.

I don't know whether or not will be similar issues in the Los Angeles metro area, but I think I've addressed them in most of the rest of California.

My opinion is that preview status in most cases should reserved for a short time (ideally no more than a few months) to allow a good peer review.  If something's still not perfect, so be it, we fix and provide an updates entry.

This could be an anomaly, but I see something weird with CA 20 and US 101 south of Willits. I saw that I got a log error with CA 20 because MuirCanRd was changed to MuirMillRd; I've decided to drop the small segment between there and US 101 from my log as I'm not even sure I really drove it. But for some reason, even though I have US 101 clinched, I'm not credited with CA 20 between exit 557 and Black Bart Drive (BlaBartDr) even though they're consecutive waypoints on both roadways and acknowledged as concurrent (and have the same lat/long data). Usually that seems to work, but not in this case for some reason. I don't want that segment to be double-counted in total mileage when usaca goes active. (And I'm all for having it go active, by the way.) Thanks.

^ Thanks for pointing this out. I've edited both US 101 and CA 20, as part of getting usaca ready to activate and also I cleaned up the 101 route file together with changes needed in downtown Los Angeles.

Your problem seems to be with a hidden shaping point between the 557 and BlaBartDr waypoints in the 101 route file, that is missing from the 20 route file. That point breaks the concurrency between the two routes.

I've added the missing shaping point, and also MuirCanRd as an alternate label for MuirMillRd, to my local copy of the CA 20 route file. These should fix your issues tonight, when I pull the updated route file into the master copy on TM's server.

Looking at your latest pull request oscar, it looked like you included everything, but the new CA 132 alignment.  (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=23234.msg2770857#msg2770857)

I assumed that you already knew about it, but I guess I have again fallen back into the answer to the question of "What happens when you assume?".

Actually, I've temporarily held back that change (the revised route file is already drafted), and a few other changes that in active systems would go into the Updates table, for now. I'll soon post separately about how best to handle them, since this is not yet an active system.

My latest usaca pull request completes most of the work needed on that preview system. This included changes recommended in neroute2's thorough and helpful peer review, that I hadn't already implemented. I'll have to go back and check for any "near-miss points"/broken graph connections and broken concurrencies I might have created, as well as Datacheck errors that need to be fixed or marked as false positives. My quick read there aren't many NMPs or Datacheck errors, just some stray NMPs for preview usaush routes fallen out of synch with usaca and active CA routes, and sharp angle errors typical in mountain areas (plus unavoidable visible distance errors, that would be "washed away" when usaca is activated), though I need to prowl through Mapview to check for broken concurrencies I've missed.

All the changes made in my recent pulls are non-"newsworthy" changes that should not break any list files. But there are a few that I've held back for now:

-- route truncations (such as from relinquishments at route ends) and extensions, non-trivial but none more than a few miles long

-- routes moved onto new alignments, including the one Markkos1992 mentioned which was opened last Thursday

-- a route split needed in San Jacinto, where part of CA 79 was relinquished to local control, and there is almost no signage to help travelers follow the old route's several turns through the city to the unrelinquished parts of the route both north and south of the city (other mid-route relinquishments that don't require route splits don't have turns and/or continuation signage is better)

-- an exit number correction that couldn't be fixed with alternate labels, so whoever is using that number would need to amend their list files

We could notify affected users of these changes by one or more posts in this thread. But there's some been some frustration with that kind of notification, rather than the usual and more effective system for active systems of posting changes in Updates to Highway Data, and then in our Highway Data Updates table. Activating usaca, then quickly pulling in the changes noted above with Updates table entries, might be one approach.

Also, additional relinquishment changes might be needed to other routes, mostly in southern California, including at least CA 19, a long urban surface route that has been mostly relinquished to local maintenance, shrinking from about 27 miles to less than 4 miles. That's a moving target, and a headache I still need to work through, though I've already pulled some annoying possible route splits off my to-do list. I would be comfortable with making any additional relinquishment changes post-activation, with notice to our users through the Highway Data Updates table, etc.

I support this.

BTW that lack of signage on CA 79 in San Jacinto caught me off guard a few weeks ago.

Agreed, we normally wouldn't worry about preview updates but it's a nice service to the many users who have usaca travels tracked already to let them know what changes they might want to be aware of.

Checking over my travels in CA, I noticed that CA1 between exits 66B and 68 of US101 near Ventura is missing a shaping point that US101 has, breaking the concurrency.

Also, OSM and GM have a different routing for CA1 at Oxnard (along Rice Ave bypassing the city, rather than Oxnard Blvd through it). Streetview doesn't have any CA1 signs along Rice (even July 2022 imagery southbound), and there's a few on Oxnard (though the imagery is older) albeit not at the ends, so you are more likely to be right than the maps, but there might have been a recent relocation.

That and another shaping point was just added to US 101, to separate that route on Mapview from the nearby US 101 Business in Ventura, and also improve shaping on US 101 which was just barely within tolerance. But I forgot to add the new shaping points to CA 1. Pull request to fix this: https://github.com/TravelMapping/HighwayData/pull/6033

This has long been a source of consternation on the AARoads forum. Basically, Caltrans has long been planning to reroute CA 1 over Rice Ave., but is unwilling to adopt Rice into the state highway system until a new bridge is built to take Rice over a busy rail crossing. Some progress has been made on getting the bridge built. But until it is open and Rice is added to the system, there is no link signed on US 101 to take travelers to CA 1 along the coast to Malibu. The HB's CA 1 routing includes Oxnard Blvd., which has been turned over to local maintenance. That's like other CA 1 segments in Santa Monica, Newport Beach, and Dana Point, which remain in the HB for continuity, since travelers can easily follow the former route (with some help from locally-maintained route signage) through those cities to continue on CA 1.

Looks like Danno722 (https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/80452118#map=12/34.1929/-119.1543) needs a reversion.

And I have that segment marked clinched even though I drove Rice.

The reality as I see it is that CA 1 essentially has a gap in existence through Oxnard with no single correct routing since it was relinquished and there aren't signs. Super pedantically, one could argue CA 1 should be cut in two for the time being on account of this, but eh, not worth it given there are plans to put the route back together again which do appear to be something more than vaporware.

usaca is now an active system.

As noted above, I deferred some changes affecting users' list files (such as last Thursday's reroute of part of CA 132 in Modesto) until activation, so that users could be notified of those changes in Updates to Highway Data, followed by entries in the Highway Data Updates table. Several such changes will be posted in Updates to Highway Data in the next few days.
