Did Alex or Andy give whoever wrote this permission to use it, or is it
another copyright violation?

I'm wondering how much of their research came from highway private
websites.
Notice the esoterica of there being an I-595 in Baltimore -
Spur Routes

Baltimore, Maryland - I-195, I-395, I-595, I-695, I-795, I-895

Too bad anything you add is instantly banned from the "editors" who are
nothing but bullshitters. I submitted information, added copyright
information with links to my site, and lo-and-behold, they ban that article
on copyright infrigment. I explained my situation and they said, "Sorry, you
are not the original author."

No, I have not been approached by anyone from Wikipedia.org to use any
AARoads material. I may have to send them an email to find out more
information on their page's sources.
Regards,
Andy

If you think it's a copyright violation, just rewrite it so that you think
it isn't.

100%?
Compare http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_91 and
http://www.ihoz.com/I91.html for Interstate 91. Wiki has lifted ZZYZX's
page nearly verbatim.
They deleted the "Thanks to" credit on ZZYZX's page, and added "From
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia."

Much of the "look and feel" of the Wiki site's Interstate data is
similar to that of the ZZYZX site.
They offered $300. However, I am mulling over that and coming up with my
own number.
