There is no team known as "the United," BTW.

He was probably referring to DC United...

Duh. But they're not "the United."

Yeah but how many are still under state maintenance?  That section of 39 is still part of the state highway system whereas that dirt section of CA 173 is not.  I took the meaning of this thread to be Highways still actually part of state highway logs. 

This is a good definition...

Virginia's winner is probably the eastern half of VA 346 in Fairy Stone State Park which has been closed to vehicular traffic since about 1966.

TX 87 from just west of Sabine Pass to High Island has literally been a washout for years.  Hurricanes and erosion have been the main causes.  Nothing has been done to replace it, or re-sign it along other nearby roads.  Building it further inland wouldn't be an option as there is a wildlife refuge north of TX 87's path.  With nothing done, this leaves TX 87 as one of the few discontinuous numbered roads in TX.

To be more clear, it is completely gone. It cannot be rebuilt where it used to be because the beach moved inland significantly

In Cleveland, OH, Puritas Avenue between Grayton Road and Rocky River Parkway was closed for 20-25 years due to a landslide. It was finally rebuilt with large retaining walls and reopened in the 1990s.

Why hasn't TXDOT renumbered one of the portions of 87?
