Title: ND: I-194
Post by: Ib3kii on June 19, 2016, 07:51:28 pm
In Bismarck, the travel mapping site has I-194 end at the first exit, the site needs to extend I-194 down two more exits, across the river.

Thanks,

Evidence? (Other than online maps, which disagree.)

FHWA's latest Interstate route log (http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/interstate_highway_system/routefinder/table02.cfm) has North Dakota's I-194 at only 1.2 miles long. That indicates the south end is indeed at the first exit south of I-94, where we now have it.

There are other resources you can look up, if you want to research this further.

The Interstate Guide describes I-194 as being a 5.3 mile route.

I see it shown as a 1.20 mile route on that page.  The 5.3 miles is the combination of I-194 and ND 810.  Unless I'm missing something in my reading of that page.

Your reading is correct...a Mandan citizen "considers it" to be 5 miles.  The official figure is off to the right side...

Ah, thanks for letting me know.

Sounds right to me. Note that ND 810 is not in our HB, omitted because the route is unsigned.

Quidditch33, word of advice, don't trust Google Maps like it's the Holy Grail.  There are a lot of things that are wrong on it.

Ok, I'll keep that in mind.

To slightly change the subject (yes, I know this is an old thread), would it make sense to add the rest of the freeway portion of the Bismarck Expressway in the Select Named Freeways system (since ND 810 is unsigned)?

I would disagree on that based on length of highway (recalling something a collaborator had told me in the past (9 years ago)). Collaborators please correct me if I'm wrong but was the threshold 5 or 10 miles?.

I'm not sure it matters what it was. It's more a case of whether or not yakra wants to add it.

True, we've been given a bit more leeway with usasf routes over here. Routes shorter than 5 miles have been added in NY, OH, and IN (possibly others) already, but it's up to the collaborator's judgment.

Right, I don't know what the rationale was for the length limit in CHM, but I see no need for a lower limit for a road that otherwise makes sense to add.  I don't know about about this example to have much of an opinion on it.

The lion's share of Bismark Expy is non-freeway. Doesn't make sense to add it.

That's what I thought, thanks for confirming.

Since I plan on clinching I-194 on the way back from Rochester next month, though... ;)

(I'm not too worried about it)
