usafl: Florida State Highways

[rickmastfan67]

http://tm.teresco.org/hb/index.php?sys=usafl
Original thread: http://clinched.s2.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=399&mforum=clinched (only viewable if you were a collaborator on the old forums, sorry, can't fix that)

What will be included:
Only posted segments of state highways.  If the route is completely hidden under another highway, it will not be added (like FL-8 being entirely under I-10).

Toll Routes:
These routes carry State Route numbers, but they use a different type of shield, and normally, they aren't split into toll and non-toll route except a few (like FL-528/Toll FL-528). They are considered to be part of the main Florida State Highway system, and not a separate system.  However, we possibly might be looking at displaying both type of shields in the HB.  Otherwise, I would recommend to at least display the type of shield that has the longest segment of the two in the HB when the time comes to add the shield code for Florida.

There are also very few bannered State Highways compared to US Highways in FL. In fact, there are only two bannered routes that I know of via Wikipedia:
Truck FL-14 (Madison)
Business FL-44 (New Smyrna Beach)

There are also several suffixed state routes with "A", "B", & "E".  They will be included as 'normal' state highways, but will be treated like they were bannered, and have city abbreviations in the file name.

Sources:
OSM
Google StreetView (to verify if posted)
FDOT Shapfiles

=====

As of the time of this post, only the routes under 100 have been cleaned up and split apart and no longer have their 'hidden' segments included.  So, if you want to review any of the highways, I recommend starting there, as the ones above 100 are still in the process of being 'split' apart where needed and that process will take some time.

Isn't the correct spelling "Fluoride"?

Minor, but for FL 20, the Gainesville file is spelt Gainsville without the "e" for whatever reason.

I guess I have watched too much SEC football over the years to not miss that.

Fixing this one for the next update.  Will be in GitHub in a moment.  Thanks.

It was changed to Gainseville (it should be Gainesville).  I just checked to verify that.

Just submitted a pull request cleaning up routes FL-100 to FL-111.

From my draft TM entries for FL state routes:

FL 29 Truck (La Belle): not in HB, my notes show such a signed route but not where it goes, and neither online maps nor a quick peek at GMSV at Bridge St. south of FL 80 help either

FL 72: waypoint FL785 -> FL758

FL 84Nap: waypoint CR951 -> FL951 (951 signed as state route at least from FL 84 to I-75)

FL 267 extends north at least to US 90, and online maps indicate it reaches the FL/GA border.

FL 732 extends east to FLA1A, as shown in OSM

Do with these what you want. especially the last two can wait until we get into higher numbers.

I was just through there a couple weeks ago.  I believe there was a sign where Bridge St branches from NB FL 29, but no sign where FL 80 crosses Bridge St.  We drove up Main St, so I don't know if there was any indication of the route along Bridge St. itself.

GMSV shows it posted in both directions on FL 29:

And it looks like FL-80 might have a truck route there as well.  Will have to look into this more.

Ok, looks like the FL-80 is just a directional one.  FL-29 looks to be a legit route, as it has at least 1 shield along the route itself as of 2011 going SB per StreetView.  So, I'll at least be adding the FL-29 Truck route there.

Mentioned on another thread, but you missed FL 115 north of Jacksonville.

Mentioned on another thread, but you missed FL 115 north of Jacksonville.

For whenever whomever's working on this system (presumably James) gets back to it, there's a segment of FL 115 missing from the browser, running north of Jacksonville.  GMSV from 2015 shows it signed, and April 2016 FDOT shapefiles show it as a state highway route.

It's already there, and has been for awhile.

You're aware that FDOT shapefiles show it as a continuous route, right?  Presuming you split it because of an apparent lack of signage along I-95.

Yes, I'm very aware.  However, I've been splitting up routes that have 'unsigned' segments.  There's nothing on US-1 Alternate & I-95 to justify an "implied" multiplex between the two segments, thus, the route should stay split.  And yes, that means when I get to it, removing the segment I have on the 'main' file along US-1 Alternate.
