Incorrect highways marked on Google Maps

Someone thought it was a good idea to route El Camino Real onto I-880 between Coleman Ave and US 101 and on US 101 from I-880 south to Gilroy!

Doing some minor research, it doesn't look like this is in any way inaccurate.  However, unlike how it is for SR 82, it's just an alternate (historical) name that doesn't need to be included on maps.

If you're too lazy to pick through all 26 pages, can you at least go back one page next time?

Well, excuuuuuuuuuuuse me!

I think that was a reasonable request.

[vdeane]

While 26 pages is naturally unreasonable, I think one is.  I knew we had that one posted before but I didn't remember it was that close!

Looks like I-6 exists in Maine now...
http://goo.gl/maps/nBlLH

Yup.  Runs all the way across the state from U.S. 201 (PQ 173) to Vanceboro (NB 4).

Must be part of the conspiracy to get that east-west toll road built across Maine.

It was a reasonable request in my eyes.

Now the NJ turnpike is now labeled in 3 ways.
1 NJTP
2 NJ Turnpike
3 New Jersey Turnpike

Lots of things wrong with this

1. Before I-83B meets George St. the expressway should be orange
2. I-83B should end at George St.
3. Does I-83B even exist?

[Kacie Jane]

3. Does I-83B even exist?

It's better than the alternative (signing it as just I-83, since Google can't figure out how to do banners).

[Roadgeek2500]

Oh does it mean Business I-83, I didn't think of that

Looks like I-70 found its way into NC http://goo.gl/maps/HzjiF

Also, while talking about NC, here's something that Google has that actually seems like a good thing: http://goo.gl/maps/zQ8Ac a lot of numbered routes are indicated here, in areas like PA, 4 digit or more numbered-routes are rarely given shields

So did I-465:

Zoom in towards the 465 shield. You'll start randomly seeing shields off to the left side of the road!

Actually, that's a visitor's center, I think. Still wrong, though.

It looks like Interstate 14 found its way onto some back roads in SC: http://goo.gl/maps/dKTRu

[NE2]

Somehow "State Road S-14-556" from TIGER became I-14...

[swbrotha100]

Google shows I-515 in Nevada extended to where US 95 splits from US 93 near Boulder City. If you didn't know any better, the map gives one the impression that the freeway portion of US 93 is longer than it currently is.

On a side note, I was hoping that the Boulder City bypass would have been at least started by now, if only to see how far south (east) the I-515 designation would go, and if it would make it across the Hoover Dam Bypass into Arizona.

Not necessarily an egregious error...it's only 2.5 miles longer than it should be, but it does carry the I-515 designation past a SB access road intersection and the signal at Railroad Pass Casino.

I was also hoping that the Boulder City Bypass would have started construction on phase 1 by now. I think that was NDOT's original goal to have something ready to go during this calendar year. However, the potential to toll the bypass (as being studied by NDOT & RTC) and/or make it part of future I-11 may have altered the timeline.

The Boulder City Bypass won't carry the I-515 designation past the future US 93/US 95 interchange. Future I-11 would fill the need to carry an interstate highway across the Hoover Dam bridge into Arizona (eventually supplanting I-515).

FL 404 shouldn't be colored orange here; it starts off at a signalized diamond interchange and has some signalized intersections before turning into a freeway at the interchange with US 1: http://goo.gl/maps/FipnN

I've seen these bad boys on US-101 south of Bernal Rd.  I'm not sure if Caltrans declared I-880 and US-101 between I-880 and Bernal Rd. to be part of the new historic route.

Technically, the historic road doesn't really follow any current highway.  If anything, it should take CA-17 south to Santa Cruz.

It seems to appear randomly along US-70 in NC. And at first glance the I-74 and US-74 thing looks like an error.

I-510 near New Orleans is drawn in yellow : http://goo.gl/maps/5XKVY

Edit: WTF??? I've found I-70 in OK and TX too!

[ftballfan]

US-10 (the Farwell Bypass) west of US-127 in MI is drawn as a divided highway despite being a fully access controlled freeway (and has been one since it was built in the 1970s) from US-127 to west of M-115.

Then, Kingery and Roosevelt are drawn as full freeways despite only being expressways.

[Roadsguy]

They probably are expressways. Google uses the same color for expressways and freeways, which is confusing.

Recently they've been "cracking down" on yellow expressways, and also short freeways, and even long but "disconnected" ones.

[Roadsguy]

Preserving old route alignments (such as PA 100, which, until 2003, went south of West Chester to connect to DE 100) is good, but the old PA 100 alignment is far from "historic."

Fictional cities.  They happen in Google too!

Wonder if this will ever make it into the main map.
