Google Maps historical mix-ups

Another error; They actually think NY 210 still exists along Rockland CR 106 from the Palisades Interstate Parkway to US 9W-202:

Google Maps still shows several highways in western Kansas that have long since been decommissioned. I only notice these because I'm very familiar with the area, so the errors stand out.

This is not an exhaustive list, just some that I've noticed:

It shows a US-83 business route through downtown Oakley. This route does not exist and hasn't for a long time.

It shows an I-70 business loop through Colby. Again, this does not exist and hasn't for a long time.

It shows several decommissioned state routes such as K-257 in Gorham, which was decommissioned almost 20 years ago.

It still shows US-40 Business in Russell, which was decommissioned in 2013.

It shows the old US-281 bypass in Great Bend as a U.S. highway, complete with a U.S. highway shield. This even though the route was decommissioned as a highway sometime in the early 1980s.

I could go on, but I'll stop there. Update your data sets, Google!

Google Maps still displays US 99 on an old alignment in washington state

Fixed.

and it seems to have done the same with US 91 on an old alignment near Brady in Montana after it was decomissioned long ago

Still there.

Google and every other map site I know of still shows US-6 going through Provincetown MA all the way to the beach. For a couple years now, it has been truncated at the P'town Truro line. The green directional signs still show the US-6 shield, but the reassurance signs are now brown Historic Route signs. Oddly, there is a brown sign showing the distance to Bishop CA, and also referencing the old distance when it went to Long Beach, but that sign is located near Snail Road 3/4 of a mile from the town line. I wish the maps were right: P'town was a fairly famous endpoint for what was once the longest numbered route in the U.S., and it feels like they stole something from the town.

I believe that Lincoln Highway did not use the Lower Trenton Bridge  across the Delaware River.  It crossed on the Calhoun Street Bridge to the north.

Proof of this theory is shown on the Calhoun Street Bridge itself.

Both bridges have been part of the Lincoln Highway.  Calhoun St bridge is the original 1913 routing.

The route moved in 1920 - https://www.phillyburbs.com/story/opinion/columns/2014/10/31/replica-lincoln-highway-signs-put/18028820007/
