Interstate 269

Interstate 269 was extended to I-40 in May. Please stop reverting my edits, as the current article you reverted is false. EBGamingWiki (talk) 00:01, 15 September 2016 (UTC)

Please provide references then and I will stop. --WashuOtaku (talk) 00:37, 15 September 2016 (UTC)

It was stated that in the May 2016 meeting, I-269 was extended to I-40. Interstates can be signed, but they can't be signed to their actual terminus. Take I-710 in California, for example. Your saying that I-269 ends at SR 385, but in AASHTO'S books, it ends at I-40. Stop reverting. It's false. EBGamingWiki (talk) 14:24, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

They approved it, but TDOT hasn't acted on it yet, there is a difference. If TDOT says its going to be a hidden designation, then fine, but that is very unlikely. Give evidence or the reverts will continue. --WashuOtaku (talk) 23:15, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Even TDOT has begun referring to it as I-269 now that work has begun to change the signage. For example https://www.tn.gov/tdot/news/2017/12/13/west-tn-lane-closure-report.html ("FAYETTE/SHELBY COUNTIES, I-269: Installation of signs on I-269 (redesignated SR-385)") SmartWay shows the construction zone in question as corresponding to the 21 mile project let on 5 October to update the signage.

To be honest, I didn't see this because when it flagged I was looking at the bottom of thread.

I am happy to hear that TDOT is replacing signs, this will surely become a mute issue. --WashuOtaku (talk) 19:31, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

This is ActivBowser9177. Looking at the length, Corridor C is basically 72.1 miles. Look at it by copying the link: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/39.8707515,-83.005309/Lucasville,+OH+45648/@39.8743278,-83.0045904,16z/data=!4m9!4m8!1m0!1m5!1m1!1s0x8846f07e40f560d9:0xf4668aefb931ebbf!2m2!1d-82.9968419!2d38.879518!3e0 Corridor L is 68.4 miles.

While the roads exist, they may not be at standards to what they are suppose to be with ADHS. For example, US 74 through North Carolina is an ADHS route, but the section through the Nantahala Gorge is not to standards and construction is being done to build a bypass around the gorge that will be to ADHS standards. What we need are not google map references here but ADHS references that those routes have met those standards; after all, this is the ADHS article. --WashuOtaku (talk) 03:06, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

And... Click List of Interstate Highways in Kentucky and scroll down to I-175. You will see that it is defunct. ActivBowser9177 (talk) 22:01, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

It also has a reference, use that next time you edit the ADHS page and use less colorful language. --WashuOtaku (talk) 00:40, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Alright. ActivBowser9177 (talk) 01:11, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Reversion

Hello. Curious why you made this reversion. Too much page clutter? --Porsche997SBS (talk) 04:21, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Clutter is one thing, but its not even in the list nor should it be with ASU already listed. --WashuOtaku (talk) 04:33, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Well, okay. I mean, it is a picture of the ASU campus, and that is in the list. Plus a lot of city articles include photos of their main stadiums.--Porsche997SBS (talk) 17:02, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

The stadium doesn't define Boone, the campus does; a picture showing the campus would work best. --WashuOtaku (talk) 22:02, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

Interstate 73 in North Carolina

An IP, probably the same one you reverted, has tried to revise the exit list again.

Also, I made some updates last week but I'm not sure I did them right.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 20:03, 22 May 2017 (UTC)

I'm not clear on whether this ribbon cutting represents the opening of the new section or just a ceremony. Whatever hasn't been done right, if anything, I would really appreciate someone making sure it is corrected.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 18:32, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

The ribbon cutting is for the road, but it's not open just yet, still end of July. --WashuOtaku (talk) 21:00, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

I thought this ribbon cutting was for the section the Wikipedia article said opened in May. I'm the one who added that information, if it turns out to be incorrect.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 21:26, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

So it is for the entire section of I-73 from the Airport to US 220, so it is also for the May opening; but they held it at the section of I-73 that is currently closed till end of July. So it's half-right. --WashuOtaku (talk) 21:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

The online article doesn't make it clear what opened, but this past week I saw the print newspaper which did seem to make it clear. But something else takes place July 2 and I'm not sure what it is or how it affects the article. And of course it is completely logical that the Greensboro newspaper's article on an event in Greensboro is written by someone at the Winston-Salem Journal.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 16:47, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Yes, after tomorrow's opening of the segment around the airport opens, hopefully that bit in the article could be explained better. Basically what happened is Bryan Boulevard is making the last modifications now to becoming I-73, it was opened till a few months ago and is now being realigned between exits 109 and 110. Back in May, the section was between exits 110 and 119, all new. After tomorrow's final opening, the small gap will be eliminated. --WashuOtaku (talk) 17:40, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

I'll leave that to you or someone else.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 17:17, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Re: U.S. Route 17 in North Carolina

As far as the History section of the route, I had nothing to do with writing anything in that section. Because Google has yet to show US 17 rerouted along its original route though Wilmington, I assumed that the rerouting mentioned in History had not yet officially taken place. So naturally, when I updated the Junction list, I kept the routing that was already listed there. As for adding the exit numbers, those are based on what is actually signed at those interchanges. Also, generally speaking, any road, highway, or marker that is on a BGS at an interchange (not an intersection) should always be listed as a junction, even if it's a minor, unnumbered, or "unofficial" road. Of course, FWIW, I am willing to tailor any edit that I make to regional or local tastes.

I-95 within the Ridgeland SC Town Limits

So, I take it that I-95 briefly leaves the Ridgeland Town Line at Exit 18? Because there's a sign for the town limits south of the former rest areas, and I don't remember any others in between. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 23:27, 9 August 2017 (UTC)

I doubled-check using both SCDOT county map and Google Maps, the city limits go down along US 17 and stop near exit 18; I-95 enters the city limits when it goes over Smiths Crossings further north. --WashuOtaku (talk) 23:35, 9 August 2017 (UTC)

Reversion to U.S. Route 17 in North Carolina

Curious as to why you made this reversion. NC 133 extends through Southport a few more miles until it terminates in Oak Island, and I think Oak Island is a significant enough town to merit inclusion. Parking god (talk) 21:15, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

Signage at location does not reflect that. Just because it is an end point doesn't make it significant; US 70 ends at Atlantic, NC, but no signs along its route identifies this till a few miles out from location. --WashuOtaku (talk) 21:21, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

Just east of where US 17 merges with US 74, the exit sign for NC 133 S refers to Southport and Oak Island (per Street View, image dated January 2017). Parking god (talk) 22:04, 5 November 2017 (UTC)

Okay, sign obviously changed from last check, I guess my edit should be reversed. --WashuOtaku (talk) 22:35, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
