http://travelmapping.net/hb/?r=tx.sp0097 should probably be moved to usasf as IntPkwy. Most of it is not Spur 97, and I don't think it's signed.
http://travelmapping.net/hb/?r=in.samjonexpy has a hanging west end.

Markkos1992:
I am not sure about PA Highland Park Bridge (HigParkBri) offhand.  A quick glance of length using Google Maps shows that it is only 0.7 miles and acts more like a short connector road between PA 28 and PA 8. (though longer than the connecting road between I-76 and I-79 at Cranberry that has an interchange with US 19 in the middle....  However, that is obviously not in the HB.)

I will think about this one for a while.  PA CenScrExp (Central Scranton Expressway) and PA HarTayBri (Harvey Taylor Bridge) do connect to downtown areas of Scranton and Harrisburg respectively.

The Sam Jones Expy's controlled access section ends at a traffic light, so I chose not to continue it on to I-465.

Not much--maybe a mile?--of Mound Road is a freeway.

I think the reason I left Plough Blvd out is because it doesn't connect to another route. Airways Blvd intersects I-240. These don't have to make a connection, of course, but it's pretty rare that they don't.

There are a couple on the list I could get behind but most of these seem unimportant.

I personally would not consider the Highland Park Bridge as a freeway.  Acts like the 10th Street Bypass downtown IMO.

However, if we ever decide to add the 'Belt Highways' of Allegheny County, we could gain the Highland Park Bridge that way.

Some quick reactions for CA and NV:

-- I don't like the idea of adding to usasf routes that would belong in usaca (CA 259) or usanv (NV 171) if their route numbers were signed. EDIT: But then there's Florida's Turnpike, which has two unsigned route numbers, but is also one of the main reasons why we need usasf in the first place -- so let's not get carried away with this as a possible guideline.

-- For CA 259, there's the added complication that the highway not only doesn't have a signed route number, but also AFAIK doesn't even have a name (signed or otherwise) by which we could call it in usasf.

-- The Pacific Highway in San Diego, including its short freeway portion, is in the HB already as part of US101HisSan.

-- Some of the shorter routes in CA (Pasadena stub of unsigned CA 710, Colorado Fwy) are less than a mile long. and are otherwise unimportant. The San Bernadino Freeway stub between I-5 and US 101 is more important, but still is only about 0.6 mile long.

-- Is Golden State Blvd. in Fresno even a freeway (except perhaps a tiny < 1 mi. bit at its north end)?
