US 40 from St. Louis to Heber City, UT

Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Does US50 pass through Heber City?

No. US 40 and 189 do, and so does UT 113. UT 32 comes close, but I don't think it enters city limits.

So hbelkins' reply is invalid?

Jim

I'm guessing HB hit the same mistake I almost made: the St. Louis one was on the bottom of a page and I noticed at the last second that there was an additional reply on the next page.

So we are still in Heber City.

Interstate 70 over to Kansas City, Missouri



I-44 & I-70 (MO) by TheInstrumentalist, on Flickr
I take pictures of road signs, that's about it.

General rule of thumb: Just stay in the "Traffic Control" section of the forum and you'll be fine.

St. Louis is not a valid play here as it is not shown in the image.  You can play it for KC or Illinois if you'd like.

Oh I didn't see that, I'll change that to Kansas City.

Head way back east to US 6 in Northwest Indiana, with destinations all outside of Indiana...and the only one US 6 actually passes through is Chicago:

To Vallejo via I-80



NEITHER of these plays is valid--NEITHER US6 NOR I-80 passes through Chicago.  So I'm going to pretend you both said Ottawa, IL, or something like that.  :pan: :pan:

Jumping to Madison CT and taking I-95 to Baltimore.



I was tempted to use a photo from Philly and say taking I-95 to Trenton, just to open that can of worms.  :spin:

It would help if the Chicago Area's city boundaries weren't a complete mess. :-D

Reading the first post, it may be a little ambiguous as to whether a route must pass through the place or simply get you from there to the next place without taking any other road after leaving that place.  Using the most expansive definition of "any place you can get to from [previous place] by a single route", I hearby play QC 161 to Victoriaville.  Apologies for the blurry photo.

I modified the rules so they are more permissive across borders:

QuoteA "single route" can include a road which is clearly the same road when it crosses a state, national, or other kind of border, even if the number changes.  For example, I-87 in New York and A-15 in Quebec would be a "single route".

As long as you fix the typo.
