I just noticed (thanks to a giant list of errors that suddenly cropped up) that Iowa's US 275 listing works north to south, including the labels for the end points. This would be a holdover from the original creator and may have happened because US 275 in Nebraska is labeled east-west.

Should I reorder the route and change the appropriate stateline points? Both the Iowa S->N and Nebraska W->E listings would then converge on the Missouri River.

Is the full highway from it's start outside of Iowa to it's end posted S > N or W > E?

Which ever is the full highway distance, it should be the same.

Just look at US-52. Even though it's posted as S > N in WV, VA, NC, since it's entire routing it's W > E, we use W > E in those three states.

ISTR from long ago that since most of US275 is in NE, the route is therefore "mostly W->E" and ordered as such consistently in all states.

This may have even been discussed back on the old Google group.
