Covering a variety of roadtrips from 2016 onward, made a variety of updates to AARoads over the last two weeks. Added/updated content from the Southwestern U.S., Texas and the East Coast. Arizona Interstate 40 Arizona - revamped westbound coverage from Exit 311 / Petrified Forest National Park to Exit 148 / County Line Road. Added photos from April 2017 and reedited photos from November 2016. Arizona Route 24 [...]
Still working through the ever increasing backlog of road photos taken throughout the state of Florida. Spent the last two weeks posting content from recent trips, including a drive over to the Space Coast last week for the eventual scrubbed launch of the SpaceX Demo2 rocket. At least had the opportunity to see the mostly completed multi level systems interchange joining Interstate 4 with SR 408 (East-West Expressway) in [...]
Updated coverage of Clark County Road 215 (CC-215) on the north side of the Las Vegas area with photos from March 3, 2019. Phase 3D, the last of the long term upgrade of the Cenntennial Bowl Interchange where CC-215 meets U.S. 95, gets underway next year. This phase completes the systems interchange between the two freeways and expands the Bruce Woodbury Beltway to six overall lanes through the exchange. [...]
Spent the bulk of last week making changes to Interstate-Guide, with new photos covering several end points and updated information on several routes including I-24, I-43 and I-69. While looking at Interstate 69, resumed work with Thomas Decker's photos covering both directions of the freeway between Evansville and Bloomington, with new coverage of Section 5, which was substantially complete by October 2018. Ongoing work through [...]
Took 14 years to post pages for some of these routes, but finally added to the site are guides for U.S. 129 and U.S. 221 in Florida and Florida State Roads 81 and 83. Added coverage northbound along U.S. 19/98 from Citrus County to Perry, Florida and southbound from Perry to their split south of Homosassa Springs. County Road pages added for CR 359/359B/359C, [...]
Wrapping things up with site additions for Northwest Florida and the Big Bend Region, added several new guides or photo updates for roads in Franklin, Liberty and Gadsden Counties. State Road 12 - an original route in place by 1934 joining Bristol with Quincy and Havana. State Road 14 / County Roads 14 - SR 14 represents the eastern portion of a route from U.S. [...]
Recently tallied all the photos taken throughout the Sunshine State for the site over the last 15 plus years and ended up with over 45,000. That is not to say that every one will make the site, as there are many duplicates, several blurry photos, and ones that were taken with bad context -- but many will get posted in the coming weeks, [...]
With the extra time at home due to social distancing because of COVID-19, have taken the opportunity to really dive into a long standing back log of photos spanning the state of Florida from 2006 onward. Most of the work was in preparation to post new pages covering a variety of routes across the state. As photos get edited [...]
Took a couple of additional daytrips taking advantage of the continued lighter traffic across the state of Florida this past week. The first drive covered a number of urban state roads throughout Jacksonville and Duval County, while also updating some older coverage of I-95 and I-295. Coupled with photos taken in January and November 2019, finally updated pages covering Interstate 95 south from the Georgia state line to I-295 at [...]
Took advantage of the lighter traffic these days and drove 1,200 miles over the course of three days to South Florida and Miami. Several major upgrades have been completed in the region and more are currently underway. The Dolphin Expressway is only under construction at the east end, where the elevated roadway leading into the Midtown Interchange with I-95/395 is being rebuilt as part of the overall Interstate 395 [...]
