County Routes, or only State Routes?

[Avalanchez71]

Tennessee has county maintained roads including the one my house is on.

However, I've never seen any county route signs.

they are out there in select counties.  I cannot remember which one offhand has a bunch of very decaying 18x18 pentagons.  I know it's one that I-75 passes through, as I was driving some of those roads looking for state-named I-75 trailblazers.

That would be McMinn County.

I've also seen pentagons in Monroe County, but I've been told that they've been going away.

Also, back in the 90s when I was in college, I saw (2) county pentagons in opposite ends of Putnam County.  I recently found a photo I took of one of them, which was located just south of Algood and east of Cookeville on Dry Valley Rd at the intersection with Buck Mountain Rd.  (don't worry, the sign's already gone, so I'm not giving up any important info).  Alas, the photo is in storage now and I can't access it to say what the route number is.

The 4-digit county route numbers that are sometimes shown on TN state-issued county maps and are now showing up on Google maps, I believe, are merely TDOT inventory numbers of primarily county-maintained routes that may or may not have received some form of state aid over the years.  I've seen TDOT bridge inspection reports for county-owned bridges that list the county route numbers, and I think I've seen TDOT upcoming project lists that refer to county routes.  Those are pretty much the only official references I've seen to those numbers.

I remember seeing one way back around 91 around Baxter in Putnam County.  McMinn County and Polk had some but it has been some time since I was around the areas that had them to confirm.

Does anybody think that Connecticut should have county routes?

Connecticut lacks a county government system.  They are just now geographical lines on a map.  The last county official was the sheriff and they got rid of those a decade or so ago.

Total pork to keep reviving long dead threads.
