NC: US 64 Asheboro Bypass

[Markkos1992]

It was just reported on AARoads that it will open Friday.

The article linked in the AARoads post is paywalled. I read the article with a temporary login, but it doesn't provide the details we need.

I drove I-73/74 through the construction zone Thursday evening. The partially-covered new signage suggests:

-- the exit numbers on I-73/74 for the new US 64 interchange will be 70A-B

-- the old route through Asheboro will be signed as Business US 64.

I might go back down there after the bypass opens, but not until after Christmas.

This post should help due to videos showing signage though the ends are a problem here.

You don't need an account.  All you need is 'NoScript' for Firefox.  Have that addon installed, go look at the link in a private window, and boom.  No 'temp login' needed.

US 64 Bus Asheboro file is created
US 64 rerouted onto the bypass (youtube had all exit numbers except the west end which I took an educated guess)
NC 159 rerouted onto Zoo Parkway segment from NC 159 Spur to the Zoo Connector

In my queue for submission...

There's a waypoint for exit 70 (to the new Asheboro bypass) from I-74Hig, but not from I-73. This breaks the concurrency between I-73 and I-74Hig.

corrected and in the queue

Based on the latest video linked to AARoads Forum, the exit numbers on US 64 are fully correct.

It looks like a point was added for the new exit 70 for the Asheboro Bypass on NC I-74Hig but not on NC I-73.  I had just made adjustments to our file to handle the new bypass and noticed our NC Interstate total jump up, but none of the individual interstates had increased.  So, I think there is some double counting happening now.

Looking forward to seeing the bypass, probably sometime in the next month.  I've also heard there is another segment of I-840 about to open in Greensboro, so waiting for that as well.

mapmikey said it's fixed and in the que.  Hopefully will be on the site in the next 48h.

Oops!  Guess I didn't scroll up enough.  So Oscar beat me to it.  :-)

Still a loose end -- the 70 waypoint on I-73 was synched to I-74hig's 70 waypoint, which is in High Point more than 20 miles northwest of Asheboro, and is nowhere near I-73. Should be synched instead to I-74hig's 70(73) waypoint, or the identical coordinates for US 220's 70(73) waypoint.
