DE-Comissioned Routes You've Clinched?

Local governments in Georgia can often get GDOT to widen a local road, when GDOT does this they assign a route number to the road while they widen it and then turn it back over to the local government when the project is completed. Counting this type of route, there are several decommissioned routes that I have clinched.
Center lane merges are the most unsafe thing ever, especially for unfamiliar drivers.

Control cities should be actual cities/places that travelers are trying to reach.

Travel Mapping - Most Traveled: I-40, 20, 10, 5, 95 - Longest Clinched: I-20, 85, 74, 24, 16
Champions - UGA FB '21 '22 - Atlanta Braves '95 '21 - Atlanta MLS '18

VA 44 as both commissioned and decommissioned.
FL 9A that is now I-295 in Jacksonville.
Every day is a winding road, you just got to get used to it.

It's still FL 9A, just not signed.  Florida is one of the states that had hidden internal designations for US and interstate highways.

(also, just like FL A1A, FL 9A has multiple segments)

If you ever feel useless, remember that CR 504 exists.

While it still existed:  PA 295, WIS 123, Route 95M (NJ) (now 295) at least

Should I count things like US 15 in New York on its old alignment (not the Rochester one, the early 2000s one) as I have also clinched it on the new?

Is the Dulles Access Rd still VA 90004?  Or is it now also SR 267?

What was the Corning NY bypass's designation when it only went to Exit 46?

There are a ton of decommissioned routes in the past I've likely completed, it would take a lot of research though.

I-181 in Tennessee.  North of I-81 before it became an extension of I-26; south of I-81 after.

Just a reminder that US 6, 49, 50, and 98 are superior to your fave routes :)


EXTEND 206 SO IT CAN MEET ITS PARENT.

I clinched FL SR ALT 824, SR 82, and I believe SR 9823 if it even ever exsisted.

FL 82 exists down by Fort Meyers, and "standard" 824 still hangs on as Sheridan Boulevard.

9823 is that mystery route, ain't it? I swore I saw a detour sign that designation once about 25 years ago, but never any real shields for it.

By the criteria of the OP, the now-bypassed alignments of US 66 in CA would count, since I've clinched all of the original US 66 in CA that still exists.

This as well.  Came north on US 23 and I-181 out of Asheville back in 1989; was going to simply turn NB on I-81, but my traveling companions wanted to hit a market for supplies, so we headed straight up 181/23 into Kingsport -- and actually got off at US 11W (where the "End I-181" shield assembly was located) and hit a Kroger's up the road a bit.  We ended up just heading up 11W back to I-81 south of Bristol.  That was part of a great cross-country trip that ended up in Maine a week or so later.

I've clinched the former NY 115 on Long Island and CT 10A in New Haven.  I've also clinched the routing of NY 1A at the point when it was entirely in the Bronx and Westchester.  Then, there's NY 878 and NY 895, which used to be I-878 and I-895, respectively.  The latter I've done both before and after the change, which was relatively recent.
