Title: NYC Roads Malfunctions
Post by: D-Dey65 on January 28, 2011, 12:29:48 AM
Anybody else having trouble with Steve Anderson's "Roads of Metro New York" site lately? Far too often when I try to scroll down on an article, the scrolling bar on the side disappears.

:banghead:

I just went there, it worked fine for me.

Firefox 3.6.13 (32-bit) under Windows 7 Enterprise (64-bit)

It didn't work for me. I clicked on the pop-up blocker and the whole scroll bar disappeared again.

And I just went back again, and I can't even get the pop-up blocker or the scroll-bar.

It's broken again. I went to the North Shore Expressway page and I can't go below the line "The 1967 NYSDOT plan defined the route of the North Shore Expressway as follows:"
http://www.nycroads.com/roads/NY-347/

UPDATE: I was able to get to a version of the page that did let me, by going to another section, then going back to the homepage, and then going to where I knew the URL would be. I may not be so lucky next time.

I'm trying to prove that the Suffolk County Road 26 portion was intended to be called the "North Brookhaven Expressway."

Usually, I use Internet Explorer 8, but I found the same problem when I use Firefox.

This is a really old thread, but it still doesn't finish loading. I was an update a while back, but in recent days I haven't been able to read many of his articles, especially the ones in the Bronx and Hudson Valley. That map of the southern extension of the Bronx River Parkway is hidden there.

It's always been a shittily-coded site.

It's better for the site to malfunction than it is for the road to malfunction.

Most NYC roads are already in a chronic state of malfunction.

The site doesn't seem to have any problems for me. (Google Chrome 32-bit version 44).

And I agree alot of NYC roads have malfunction. They have alot of problems.
