AASHTO approvals Spring 2019

[yakra]

I pulled a KS US40 and undid the relocation of TX US90 around Beaumont. Included an updates entry, as the changes have been in place for > 2 years.
•  One AltLabel retained, to preserve chaddean's travels.
•  A line in codyg1985.list was broken, but he's still fine due to an I-10 concurrency.
Also removed US175BusPoy. Here, I just deleted the updates entry, and modified the one for US175 proper, as the changes have only been here a couple weeks, with only Duke87 claiming travels so far. It never existed!

I'll watch out for signage, and re-add the route when I confirm.
I'll be more cautious about similar edits in the future.

Highway63 sent me a substantial batch of changes related to this.  Any volunteers to take his files and get them into GitHub with proper CSV changes and updates entries?  I can email you his zip file.  Thanks.

I'm taking care of these today, and just committed and pushed.  I wouldn't mind someone checking out the diffs of my commit as a sanity check.

Stanton St, two-way? Uhh, no!

I've just checked out every block of Stanton in GMSV, in every year available, and it's clearly a two-way.
Why in tarnation did I say that? Yet...

In 2017, ... Stanton St. was definitely one-way southbound

Mandela Effect?

Anyway... I did some more looking around and found several signs I missed before, though not all that much has changed in years; these signs have been around a long time. None of this convinces me to move the routes yet. Most critically, there no shields directing SB traffic onto Stanton, or for traffic on NB Stanton at Paisano.

The Monticello Bypass in AR was done via this thread.

I-55BL (Springfield, IL), US 30 (IA), US 52(IA), I-94BL (Kalamazoo, MI), US 131 BUS (Kalamazoo, MI), US 61 (MO), US 61 BUS (Kelso, MO), the deletions of US 65 BUS (Carrollton and Trenton, MO), and US 67 BUS (Cherokee Pass, MO) have been done as well.  So all IL, IA, MI, and MO changes are in the HB.

I do not understand why I-49 has not been fully signed along I-20 and I-220.  Right now it is all just "TO I-49" shields both NB and SB.

I've never understood why they requested it in the first place given that they're building a new urban freeway in Shreveport for that connection.  Maybe they realized they would just have to re-route it later when they finished building I-49 proper and decided not to sign it.

They probably requested it because of the funding issues that they are having with the project.  I did find a news article from June 11, 2020, on it (behind a paywall).

The US 63 and US 63 BUS (Jonesboro) changes in AR have been done.

[yakra]

Signage (albeit a bit lacking) has been confirmed for US175Bus (Poynor). Back in it goes!

In the process, I discovered that US175 & its children are consistently signed east-west, so I flipped point order and adjusted _N & _S suffixes to _W & _E on intersecting/concurrent routes. This includes TxLp60, which has no signed cardinal directions of its own. Treating it as a notional child route of US175, and keeping its direction consistent. It's more of an east-west route anyway.

TX US 79 Business (Taylor) deleted
I should hold off on this one until confirming that field signage has changed. The relocation of the south end of the route was approved by AASHTO in Spring 2011, but this sign was still there in Nov 2016 (gone by Feb 2019), and this one is still there as of Mar 2019.

Thru town, [BUS]{79} signage has been placed by vanilla {79} signage. I'm going to treat this as missing-TO trailblazer signage.
The only place left to potentially have any signage (other than one BUS I still saw in town) is the split on the east side o town, but GMSV isn't updated there yet.
Think maybe I've seen enough to remove this now?

One way to potentially handle the El Paso mess...
There's no signage directing traffic for either 62 or 85 south from Paisano.
So just acknowledge these routes are unsigned, and don't include the unsigned portion. 62 & 85 can end at one another.
Officially, the changeover is at Stanton St; signage in the field has it at El Paso St.
