Freeway vs parkway

This used to be called Guadalupe Parkway, I guess because sections hadn't been upgraded to freeway quality (?). Was the name formally changed? -- John Fader (talk · contribs) 12:44, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I don't think so--I believe that the signs from 101 still say "Guadalupe Parkway", but it might be my brain messing with me. Elf | Talk 02:40, 9 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

taxobox wrong

The information in the box is wrong. Guadalupe Parkway does not intersect with CA-237. I'll remove that false intersection in a second. Gentgeen 08:40, 11 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Extension into the City?

Apparently, in 1955, there were plans for Ca-87 to run all the way into the City. 1955 Trafficways Map Any ideas on how to find out more about this? --MikZ (talk) 17:18, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Exit for Santa Clara Street in Downtown San Jose

I just noticed that my contribution was removed because it appeared to be incorrect to at least one other user. I believe that my contribution was correct, as there is a picture at the Google Street View site that clearly shows "Santa Clara Street" and "Downtown San Jose" on the same overhead sign; here is the link. This sign is located along the northbound CA-87 collector-distributor lanes in downtown San Jose. SoCalSuperEagle (talk) 20:13, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The sign I'm seeing on Google Maps Street View for Santa Clara Street is the same as this image: [1]. Where's the "Downtown San Jose"? Gill Giller Gillerger (talk) 22:38, 5 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
On the northbound side, there is a single exit for Auzerais, San Carlos, Santa Clara, and Julian - it is signed as exit 6 (also known as the Downtown Connector). The individual ramps don't have exit numbers.
This is a picture of the entrace to the connector (marked as exit 6) [2], here's the ramp to San Carlos/Auzerais (also marked as exit 6)[3], here's the exit to Santa Clara (no exit number) [4], and Julian St (no exit number) [5].
