Long Straight but Unnumbered Roads

[hotdogPi]

Golden Rd. in Maine: 95.7 miles

(plus one mile in Canada)

1. Has anyone been on this road?

2. Can someone find a longer one? Remember it has to have no turns in it, and continuing straight will always keep you on the road. Loops (roundabouts, beltways, etc.) do not count. This can be anywhere in the world, not just the United States.

Trans-Taiga highway at 662 km (411 miles) : https://www.google.es/maps/dir/53.3232109,-77.4448618/54.8343326,-69.8685645/@54.1598458,-73.2452095,7z

If we include the James Bay highway down to the Northern end of QC 109 it's over 1200 km (almost 750 miles) of unnumbered roads: https://www.google.es/maps/dir/49.7612424,-77.6491003/54.8343326,-69.8685645/@52.3994694,-74.8668994,6z/data=!4m2!4m1!3e0?

Oh, and the planned route of Chinese G7 expressway also involves paralleling over 600 miles of unnumbered, dirt roads.

If we take your title more literally, Ustick Rd in Boise/Meridian/Caldwell/etc., ID goes for about 35 miles in a straight line. It curves a bit at the east and west ends, but everything in between is completely straight.

Does it count if some parts have a route number and other parts don't?  If so, then Merrick Boulevard/Merrick Road/Montauk Highway on Long Island is one contiguous stretch from Jamaica in Queens to Southampton where you have to turn a couple of times to stay on it, a distance of 83.2 miles.

Doesn't count because of the part in bold.

Alaska has plenty of highways without numbers. Not sure which is the longest; the Nome-Council Highway is 72 miles of un-numbered gravel. Too lazy to research further.

No, he's saying that it's not until Southampton that you have to turn a couple of times to stay on it. Prior to that there are 83.2 miles where you don't.

Rumor has it that it starts with a 79¢ can of beans...

I would like to say Card Sound Road between Florida City and Key Largo in Miami-Dade County, but I believe that it has a County Route number assigned to it.

Only in Monroe County.

I've been to the start of the Golden Road, where the large, ominous sign warns you there is no gas, food, pavement, or right of way (for you) until you're in Québec, that you will have to wait indefinitely if logging crews are staging on the road, and more or less that you have to be a special breed of nuts to continue any further.  I can't remember if you have to register with the owner (one or more of the paper companies that are left).

Having just finished ruining my Honda for 50 miles along the K-I Road and another logging road in the area, I took the hint and headed east instead, learning that Millinocket at 11:00 at night is only slightly less barren than the Golden Road.

I thought of a couple that are mostly numbered, but not totally.

1. Starting at Long Wharf in New Haven, Church St > Whitney Ave into Hamden.  CT 10 joins in Hamden Center.  CT 10 through the north end of Hamden, Cheshire.  CT 10 leaves just south of CT 322.  Straight becomes Southington's Old Turnpike Rd.  Old Turnpike Rd rejoins CT 10 just south of the center of Southington.  Road remains CT 10 until US 44 in Avon, then continues as Nod Rd up to CT 185 in Simsbury. 

2.  This one has a couple of bear rights, but can generally be completed without having to turn off, and some roads are unnumbered.   I-678 out of JFK, Hutch Parkway, Merritt and Wilbur Cross Parkways, Berlin Turnpike (including CT 314 and extreme north unnumbered portion), Maple Ave and Main St in Hartford, US 44 West to Canton, US 202 West to Torrington, CT 4 West to Sharon, CT/NY 343 West to Amenia, US 44 West again across the Mid-Hudson Bridge, ending at US 9W.  Well over a 200 mile loop without turning.

Looks like 44 is the through route at the Canton split. Just as well, since 202 to 4 in Torrington is definitely not straight, and then 202 jogs a bit at old 8. The straight road ends abruptly at NY 22 in Millerton.

But this does not seem to be in the spirit of the original question.
