 |
|
| In the highway browser US64, US70, and US79 are shown as continuing on to Danny Thomas Blvd after splitting from US61 at 3rd St and then taking that up to Union Ave. Signs on the streets though show that US64, US70, and US79 follow 3rd St to G.E. Patterson Ave, where the one-ways of 2nd St and 3rd St take the highways up to Union Ave. They then meet up with the routing in the highway browser. |

The original routes were mostly based off of the City/County maps that TDOT had on their website. Unfortunately, they are in the Memphis area dated from 2002, which show the route as it is in the HB. (This was the age before StreetView)
However, I have taken a look at StreetView for the routing of US-64/70/79 and I do see them turning @ where US-61 leaves to go South.
So, all three routes will be fixed in my next TN update. |

Ugh, then again, this 2012 map (found here) claims that the routing I have is the correct one.
WHY TDOT, WHY?!?!?!?!
This state is easily the worst state when it comes to their maps agreeing with what's on the ground.....

Especially in the Memphis area, what's on the ground barely has any bearing on what's on the maps, or what it's supposed to be. (These can be three different things.)
I was just there and the situation is still as bad as the end of 2001. I saw US 61 and 72 shields nowhere near their respective routes. |

| I've changed the routing to what it posted in the field for all three routes. Have submitted an update tonight. |

| All three routes now have this fix applied to them in the HB. |
