AASHTO May Meeting 2016

[formulanone]

I think US 18 Temp in the Waukesha WI area was never addressed here. But I suspect it has been de-designated or de-signed, now that the permanent Waukesha US 18 bypass (which is in the HB) has opened.

I didn't notice any Temporary US 18 shields in Waukesha last summer.

I am unable to clarify on US 60 BUS (Rogersville, MO), but the signage seems iffy based on GSV imagery there.  The new routing definitely cannot be truly verified based on GSV.

This seems pretty clear. Also this.

The signs are clear, but that set of ramps is screwy. The EB exit to Business 60 has a frontage road for a significant length before hitting FR 253, which is where the WB ramp also goes.

I think what I am going to do is:

• Close/demote County Line Road, which does not intersect US 60 anymore.
• Put US60BusRog_W at the roundabout-filled exit at Route B/FR 253.
• Create a point for Jamestown Boulevard, approximately where US60BusRog_W presently is.
• Add a point for FR237 (EB off/WB on).
• Redo the business route such that it leaves US 60 at the 253/B bridge and turn at Center Street.

Travelers who don't want to count the loooong parallel EB exit and WB entrance ramp as traveled parts of 60 can use the JamBlvd point.

I think my changes have been done. Given the number of other items, I don't want to mark it solved without a second opinion.

[Markkos1992]

I did not see anything in the ARDOT news release about when I-555 signage will be added up to AR 91.  (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=23703.msg2684942#msg2684942)

[yakra]

Good to know this isn't forgotten about. I'll keep checking in to AARoads for reports of when signage is installed.

From my check earlier this year, all that is left is the extension of I-555.

[yakra]

Don't know about other people's states, but TX is still waiting on the US83/83Bus La Joya-Piñetas changes. May 2023?

I guess I was more concerned with other maintainers' states than yours at the end of the day.   

[yakra]

If you want to mark this solved for housekeeping purposes (forget whether you even were doing that with some of these topics), no need for outstanding items in only my states to be a factor in that. I'm tracking these items in the TX & AR Outlook threads, and can stay abreast of them regardless of whether this topic is "open" or not.

I guess, what's a more useful organizational scheme?
• some items, any items, still not implemented in the field yet
• collaborators actively using the thread to track to-do lists

Well I know of a US 219 ALT from 2009 that has never been signed in PA for what that is worth...

[yakra]

Wow, 2009. That beats the US377 Cresson TX bypass, finally under construction, that got approved in 2012.
For designation changes on existing facilities, NH relocated US302 onto I-93 in the CHM era, but it's still signed as just a truck route.

[Markkos1992]

Personally, I do not have a problem with these threads being solved as long as items are tracked elsewhere.  I am more concerned about these items being forgotten by other maintainers that are not as detailed into tracking things as myself and you (referring to yakra).

I just sent an email to District 9 on the US 219 ALT item.  I guess either the funding dried up for it, or they moved on to other more important items (which in the world of PennDOT means mostly replacing smaller bridges with poor ratings).

The response I got from District 9 is that US 219 ALT will not be designated any time soon due to lack of funds to upgrade SR 4013.

yakra, if you want to mark this as solved, and track it with your Outlook Threads, I am fine with that since your items seem to be the only ones left.

The other NC stuff (I-42 and I-87) is stuff that I am sure will be addressed in future AASHTO Submissions.  Note that we already have I-87Fut in the HB, and we do not plan to add more mileage to usaif.
