ON: ON-72 reroute in Sioux Lookout

[rickmastfan67]

Just happened to stumble upon this reroute of ON-72.  It seems sometime between 2012 & 2018 per StreetView, it was rerouted onto the Ed Ariano Bypass & out of downtown Sioux Lookout.  Instead of ending @ SH-642 in downtown, it now ends @ SH-642 & SH-516 to the east of Sioux Lookout.  SH-642 was also shortened to this same intersection, but that isn't an issue since it isn't on the site (yet).

If anybody can help me pin down a date for this reroute, I'd greatly appreciate it so I can properly add it to the update entry.

Thankfully, only one person has 'clinched' ON-72, and that's Ib3kii.  However, they only update via email.  Hopefully they'll see the error entry or update entry for this reroute, since I have to change the northern endpoint label anyways since it now ends at 2 different Secondary Highways.  Oscar also has some mileage on this route, but it's south of this issue.

This site (http://www.thekingshighway.ca/Highway72.htm) indicates that the reroute was technically done in 2006, but it was not signed until later as you indicated.

That's why I'm trying to figure out what year the reroute happened.  Sadly, StreetView was only there twice, and thus, only have the 2012-2018 range for it.

If we can narrow down the date later for the reroute, I'll update the update entry at that time.
