Interactive map showing all US route endpoints

What's the most recent change on this map? US 35's "northern" terminus, or US 301's northern terminus?

Those are both pretty recent, within the past year.  Also in 2019 TX changed US 62-85 in El Paso.  But the most recent change reflects something that hasn't quite opened to traffic yet: US 175's new terminus in Dallas.

Also in 2019 TX truncated US 85 in El Paso.

So now US 62 and US 85 end at each other at S El Paso St, instead of just heading south down a one-way street? Sounds good to me.

If you ask me, US 175 and US 75 are completely redundant highways. They should just be US 75.

Not exactly, it's complicated.  US 62-85 both still "touch" the border via Stanton St.  But, although Stanton runs both ways, it is used as a border crossing only for Mexico-bound traffic.  US-bound traffic crosses the border using El Paso St, which no longer carries a US route designation.  I went into it in more detail towards the bottom of this page.

Great work! How do you feel about adding the split routes in Kentucky and Tennessee? Something always bothered me about the northern terminus of 25E.

Welcome to the Forum.  There was a time in the late '90s or early '00s when the website did include endpoints of split routes, alternate routes, etc.  It's definitely an interesting topic, but when I started digging into historic split routes and historic alignments, it quickly began to seem like I was getting bogged down in an area that really wasn't my main interest.  So I decided to narrow the focus of the site by ignoring the endpoints of bannered routes, suffixed routes, etc.

I vaguely recall a time years ago when 25E was not routed on the four-lane between the 25/25E/25W intersection and I-75, but I don't remember if that route carried the KY 770 designation, or another state route number. I'm pretty sure the signage on I-75 always said 25 and 25E, but you actually didn't reach 25E until you got to the intersection. I don't think the KYTC route log shows the date that 25E was added to the connector route, but I'm wondering if there might be an online archive of the AASHTO requests showing when the extension was approved.

FWIW, the 1970 USGS topo shows the four-lane designated as KY 709.  US 25 was still on its old route, which split into 25E and 25W right in downtown Corbin.

I seem to remember some content regarding the historic US 30 split in ID/UT/WY lasting into the mid-2010s (as I hadn't found your site before then).

I'm sure that's correct.  Around 2000 I stopped adding new content about split routes, but if the content was already there, it just stayed until 2016 (which is when everything got overhauled during the transition to a mobile-friendly format).
