If you can scrounge up a 525 somewhere near you, you can jump into the game. and go straight to the top, overtaking me at 609. That will make Rothman (leader of the "get Oscar" brigade) very happy.

My own 525 is in Washington state, but maybe you can find something farther east.

The best way to find a route is by using https://travelmapping.net/hb/findroute.php



I think that it would help more "for the game" having links on https://travelmapping.net/user/routesbynumber.php to findroute.php for the "Missing Numbers".
You can easily filter the result, e.g. for continent. However, findroute (currently) outputs all routes containing the string, that means, also KY1525 and KY3525. And the url is (currenlty) not updated based on the filter.

I still hang at 144 but there is one quite close to me, just a 2.5 hour drive to get there. The missing 300s and 400s are in a similar distance up to 3.5 hours from home. I can catch a lot of these missing numbers with a simple one-day trip.
575, 576 and 581 are more challenging but doable with two-day-trips. Once done, 625 will be the next missing route which will be a little bit easier to catch - just like the remaining 600s around Dortmund, DEU-NW, or Strasbourg, FRA-GES.

Sounds like a nice little goal for 2022 :)


Edit: @oscar, you wrote that you are at 609 but I think you also miss "0 386 399 437 498 539 554 600 606", don't you?

If he's like me, many Mississippi highways are not yet out of development in TM which would count towards that number. There are also lots of Texas Farm-to-Market and Ranch-to-Market roads not included, as well as Virginia State Secondary Routes which are not in TM at all...though FM/RMs are a work in progress.

That puts me at 479; if we include shielded county-maintained roads (a bone of contention at AARoads), I'm up to 558 as my personal lowest.

My count includes two Virginia state routes not in TM (386 was decommissioned after I clinched it, 399 is unsigned); three signed county routes (437 in Alabama, 539 and 554 in New Jersey); one signed Mississippi state route not yet in TM (498); and two Virginia state secondary routes that aren't and never will be in TM (600 and 606).

Zero doesn't count under the rules of the AARoads game, which is limited to positive integers (no West Virginia fractional routes either).
