They could have upgrading the former 800-234-5678 to 800-0234-5678
Or, at LEAST, allow 000 to 199 as the middle three digits (N11 are allowed in toll frees number's middle digits)

And what is the advantage of that vs adding 888 and 877 toll free codes?

256 = 128 / .5 (US 30 WB .5 miles east of CR 128 in Nevada, OH) (https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10218935173770843&set=a.10218935337414934)

Has there at least been any movement on a Clayton bypass? Hell at this point I’d be happy with at least a two lane bypass that could be upgraded in the future.

In the 15 years I've lived in New Mexico, I have neither seen nor heard of any discussion of a bypass around Clayton.

Scant in the past?  If anything there is more information available regarding highways the further back in time you go.  The problem is that it often comes from primary sources like State Highway Departments or AASHO (which Wikipedia doesn’t like). 

Off the top of my head here is a list of State level publications on highways I’m familiar with which pre-date the Interstate system that I’m aware of:

-  California Highway Bulletin (1912-1916)
-  California Highways & Public Works (1924-1967)
-  Arizona Highways (1920-current) (note, the magazine isn’t really “road” centric anymore)
-  Florida Highways (1924-1950)

Well, before around 1900 there's a sharp drop-off and many of us do really stop caring.

I mean hey, transportation corridors are rarely fully developed in the vacuum of the post-1956 Federal Highway Aid Act era.  It does the reader a disservice to not hit on full history of a corridor if there is something tangible prior to the 20th century to address.  Digging for stuff that old is hard, but often not impossible.

I printed out 10 copies of the itinerary earlier today for tomorrow.

I'm sure some states didn't use span wire at all, or rarely.  California  and Illinois come to mind as states where I've never encountered span wire except in construction zones, though I could be mistaken.

There used to be a span wire signal at the intersection of Foothill Blvd and Voss Ave in Cupertino, CA but it was removed more than a decade ago and replaced with a modern mast arm.

As of May, Fresno had a permanent span wire signal at Broadway and Mono, just southeast of the baseball stadium. That remains the only permanent span wire signal I have seen in CA. Even 4-way flashers are often on mast arms in California.

Nevada has also been using mast arms forever. Similar to California, Nevada once used guy wire mast arms of the type still used in New York City. Most of these are gone at this point (having been replaced by more modern styles), but a handful still exist around the state. I will note that Nevada has nonzero 4-way flashers on span wire (even along state roads), with Virginia City and Battle Mountain each being home to examples. I have never seen a permanent 3-color signal on span wire in Nevada.

In the 1930's, Nevada was using span wire installation like these ones in ely, near the Hotel Nevada.

The AARoads Wiki made Slate: Why Wikipedia’s Highway Editors Took the Exit Ramp

Is this where I announce that the AARoads Wiki is a sham; we sent ourselves out here because we're trying to take over the Empire, but first we have to defeat the forces from Anacreon Wiki, the Thespis'wiki, and Korellian State Policipedia before starting out on the creation of a New Galactic Wikipedia (keep an eye out for a user called TheMule360, just a hunch).
