Upshur County/Buckhannon, WV and Corridor H
|
| |
As a faithful longtime follower of MTR and all things roadgeek, my time is long past due to start participating in MTR discussions, as I have only very infrequently in the past. To start, I would like to give my own opinions on Corridor H, from a local perspective. I am orginially from, and live in New Jersey, but grew up in Upshur... more »

"Official" west end of US 66 designated
|
| |
Wednesday night, NBC had a 30-second piece on the US highway system. Brian Williams said, "You'd be forgiven for not knowing it, but today marks the 83rd anniversary of this nation's system of numbered highways." (That would be November 11, 1926, which is a date I believe I've seen elsewhere. Roadgeeks at NBC, out yourselves here!) The point... more »

What can I expect, generally? Gonna take a massive dump all over the midwest in less than 4 weeks. Chicago->Toledo, Toledo-> STL, STL -> Dallas, Dallas -> Omalol, Omaha - ...the listed cities.

This past weekend's Vegas trip.
|
| |
Went to Vegas this past weekend for a wedding. Some observations: ** The I-15 northbound Zzyzx Road exit is mis-signed as Exit 23. (It's Exit 239.) ** Major WTF: All of the exits on I-15 between Ontario and the state line have exit numbers now. The odd thing is that both of I-15's rest areas between Barstow and Vegas are ALSO signed with exit numbers!... more »

Google Maps Signs TN-385 as I-269
|
| |
Recently Google Maps was updated to show TN-385 marked as I-269. Has TDOT started signing TN-385 as I-269 or is Google jumping the gun on labeling the outer loop as I-269? 73 Dan W1VXA [link]

Corridor H field check/update
|
| |
After some hiking in Maryland on Sunday (to the highest point in Maryland, amongst other places), I headed home via the Corridor H area. Posted an update on the blog, but in a nutshell, there's more grading/bridgework being done between Scherr and Forman, the interchange at CR 5 in Forman will be a folded diamond, and paving... more »
