Does anybody know what's up with FL-883? It looks like it has been decommisioned. It's no longer in the GIS data (02-01-10). The last time it was in the GIS data was back in November. Anybody with info about this?
It can't be. District 3 stated, late last year, there were no plans to add or delete and roads on the SHS.
Well, it's gone completely from the most current GIS data.
I guess it has been deleted. It's not highlighted on the Federal Aid maps anymore.
From District 3, "This segment of roadway was given back to the city so it was taken off of the state road system. We will still inventory it as 60050000 off-system, but it is no longer SR 883. If you have any more questions, please let me know. Thanks."
Thanks for finding out. :)
No problem. They also deleted SR 2A in Campbellton (the old alignment of SR 2 in that area).
All of the 400 series county roads are removed from the GIS data in Escambia County with the exception of CR-453 (W Street) as well. CR 493 and 443 shields were still posted on US 90 the last time I drove through there however. Steffani Road's 400 series numbering is also gone.
Interestingly enough CR-298A is still shown along Jackson Street. There are no signs for it and the only indication that it is a county road are shields for CR-453 (W Street) on Jackson Street itself.
Have to check to see if the green text signs for Business 331 are still signed in Freeport.
I could never get any good mileage/termini for CR 443 and Escambia CR 493. Do either of you have archived GIS data from FDOT? If so, how far back?

I may have some files saved from 2007 in my archives...
Since it will be sunny here tomorrow (for a change), I will try and get over there to Freeport to see if they have already dismantled the Florida 883 shields.
Went over to Freeport this afternoon to check out the status of Florida 883. There are still shields posted along Florida 20 at its southern end and along US 331 on its northern end. But as far as any mainline Florida 883 shields, they are now gone; though it is beyond me why they would only remove the mainline shields and not the other shields...
Lame considering the remaining FL-883 shields on SR-20 are date stamped 2007!
I'm assuming you have pictures of them ;)
