Delsea Drive (NJ 47) northbound at the Cape May Expressway (NJ 55):

This counts for 47 but not 55. 55 opens no earlier than 10:52:10 PM board time.

Seriously?  This is a nightmare to keep track of.  Can't we just say that it rolls over at midnight each day or something?

I agree. Simpler to just go with midnight (board time), rather than make us look through the current number's posts to find out when the first post was made, or to make jbnv announce when the next number can start. We still go through only one number a day, which keeps the game moving at a leisurely pace.

That font... my eyes :crazy:

Anyway, for my 57, I present a picture I just took about an hour ago: a Warren County R57 shield along IA-5. The shields themselves should be removed since the road is now a Des Moines city street.



Another picture I just took today to fill in one of the numbers I didn't have: Warren CR-G24 WB at US-65/69.

Rules FYI: Former and decommissioned routes ARE acceptable. Older pictures of routes that have since been decommissioned are allowed. Current photos of routes that have been decommissioned but are still signed in the wild are allowed.
