Directions have been labeling it "I49Bus" for quite some time. The shields are new.

Most likely, its actually referring to a business loop of 49, probably correct.  Same case with the I-196B in Michigan.

Most likely, I didn't look at the Goog.
PS: they seem to have rolled out the new style as default.

Every single classified road in the UK is the wrong colour.

Though it's more that it is vomit-inducing, eye-hurting cartography.

And that's the least-worst New Maps change coming - at least it is still usable at the moment, even if your eyes hurt.

No, the whole lot. Plus the business loops.

You mean the correct color. No "u." Amerika uber alles!

The new style makes me want to throw up.  Worse, it's unusable.  Everything that isn't a freeway or a major arterial looks like a minor road.  The only good thing about it is they finally stopped calling every road in Mexico a freeway.

It is even worse in Spain, where expressways (autovĂ­as) are marked as regular roads :banghead:.
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Yep, neutered. Found another photo:

DE is DE; PA is PA.  But also, PA is DE, and DE is PA.  All four of these are true.  Clearly, the states have been annexed by Alanland.

The Seward Hwy and Minnesota Dr freeways south of Anchorage are still shown as regular arterials.

That's to imply, in my opinion, the original route as such, not as I-90 Business. A lot of Wallace residents do tend to call that Highway 10. Heck, Missoula does that, too, because West Broadway Street and Secondary 474 are known as Highway 10 West because US 10 ran through until 1986. I guess the Googs decided to put it there for "historic" purposes.

Oh, and get this, too. Google marks a stretch of I-90 in Missoula from Exits 96 to 104 as "E Railroad Ave" and why that is puzzles me.

Finally upgraded to Expressway after, what, seven or so years on this forum? Took a dadgum while, but, I made it!

You are correct.  The road in MapMaker is listed as "I-90 Business" Official/Obscure with "Old US 10" as Local/Primary.  I hate seeing it that way, but when I try to correct it, someone from the local area reverts it, so I don't fight it much anymore.
They said take a left at the fork in the road.  I didn't think they literally meant a fork, until plain as day, there was a fork sticking out of the road at a junction.

Not a highway, but according to google, the Scottish island of Jura sunk a good few weeks ago. They have formally apologised, but still haven't rectified it, despite the outline still being in their data.

It looks like if you follow SR 200 east from there it keeps the E Railroad Ave moniker.  Is that correct?

Roadgeek2500

^ And when you keep following SR-200 to US-89, it turns into E. Railroad Ave, And when you follow US-89 to I-15, That also turns into E. Railroad Ave.

There are now two I-580s in California. http://goo.gl/maps/bIYiv

Fixed.  Either an idiot remapped US 395, not knowing what they were doing, or a bot.  Either way, it is being fixed.
