U.S. highways you've clinched in your state

I've only clinched two U.S. highways in Mississippi and that's U.S. 82 and 90. I've been on all of the undivided portions of U.S. 49 (Yazoo City southward and Tutwiler northward) and all of 49W. However, I haven't clinched all of 49E.

In Tennessee, I've clinched all of U.S. 51 and 61.

I've gotten at least one alignment of every current and former US route in California.  Getting every alignment is tricky, whether due to aquatic trouble (US-99 under Pyramid Lake or Shasta Lake), general inaccessibility (US-80 as cut into ribbons by I-8 through In-Ko-Pah Pass) or just the fact that they seem to have changed the routing every two years (anything in downtown Sacramento).

I've clinched all of the US routes in Washington. In Wyoming I've clinched US-18, 20, 26, 30, 89, 191, 287, and 310.

I still have US-14 and 16 east of Moorcroft, US-85 north of the US-18 split, US-87 in the extant from I-90 portion south of Sheridan, US-189 from north of Kemmerer to Big Piney, and the US-212 segment from South Dakota to Montana. I should have all those done by Labor Day (along with the rest of the state highway system) however.

Let's see...in other states I've clinched 730 in Oregon, 26, 30, and 195 in Idaho, 40 in Utah, 85 and 87 in Colorado (including the C-Springs weirdness), 138 in Colorado, 87 in New Mexico, 73 and 138 in Nebraska, 36 in Kansas, and 59 in Missouri.

In their entirety, I've only clinched US 138, US 195 and US 730. I should pick up US-16 over Labor Day as well.

I've been on all of I-80 in California, so combined with the surface street alignments from San Francisco to Roseville, I've at least done much of US 40 between SF's South of Market neighborhood and the state line.

Also have done at least some form of all of historic/current US 50 between San Francisco and Stateline, NV, albeit I haven't done the part in Stockton that used to be Route 4 (as opposed to its modern freeway routing that was never US 50), and much of the surface street routings in the East Bay.


Not sure exactly which roads were the 1920s US 48 between Stockton and San Jose - I may have clinched that by pure accident at some point.

I thought it followed 50 to 17.  If not, I may have also clinched it by accident, having done just about every mountain pass road (route 130, Patterson Pass, etc).

IIRC, it was something like 50 from 99 in Stockton (so along 4, 5, 205 west) to today's 238, then today's 238 (and part of the 1960s route that was supplanted by the 680 and 17 freeways) to 101.  I haven't seen a SJ map showing 48 though...

The only routes I have not clinched in Wisconsin are US 12 and US 63.  The first one I have yet to get from New Lisbon NW to Hudson (I have pockets of it in Tomah, Black River Falls and Eau Claire.)  I've been chipping away at it since it's almost on the way to my hometown, though i just go up north only 1 to 2 times a year. US 63 just concurrencies with other US and state highways I clinched.  That one requires an overnight in Ashland to clinch and is very low priority.

As I'm close to Illinois and Iowa I'll list them as well:

Illinois: US 12 (also in Indiana), 14, 20 and 41.
Iowa: US 52, 151

I've clenched most all of the US highways in Ohio, except for the northern ones where I still have some sections left. 

Here's the ones that I have fully completed: US 22, US 23, US 25 (hardly even counts), US 27, US 33, US 35, US 36, US 40, US 50, US 62, US 68, US 223, US 250

The partials: US 6, US6A, US 20, US 30, US 42, US 52 (almost completed!), US 127, US 224, US 322, US 422

Also, in Arkansas I've fully clenched US 49, US 62, US 64, US 65, US 70, US 71, US 271, and US 412 (and probably most of their "B" routes)

hbelkins

In my state (Kentucky) I have clinched all of them. Ditto for West Virginia.

I've clinched a number of US routes in other states as well, but won't bother listing them here.

In terms of nationally, I've clinched US 19E, US 19W, US 25E, US 25W, US 58, Alternate US 58, US 68, US 113, US 211 and US 460. There may be others but that's just off the top of my head.

Though I take mostly U.S. Highways for my solo trips, I've clinched relatively few of them since I'm usually trying to get somewhere within a certain amount of time.  Also, I take Bus. Routes more often than Bypass (or the mainline, as the case may be) through towns, so I have several where I've completed at least one alignment, albeit one fifty years out of date.

Mississippi:  U.S. 11, U.S. 45, U.S. 51, U.S. 78, U.S. 82, U.S. 84, U.S. 98, (hardly worth mentioning) U.S. 425
Louisiana:  U.S. 61, U.S. 190

A far lower total than the interstates.

Wisconsin: US-141, US-2(east)
Michigan: US-141, US-45

Usually I look for the fastest route, and US routes are only a part of it.

Not too many I've clinched.

IN: US 30 (alignment circa 1983)
NY: Current US 15 (LOL)


but believe it or not: NONE in my home state of PA or my current residence of TN.

California: US 50

Well, that's underwhelming. Let's see what else I've got:

none in CT, surprisingly... or much of anywhere else ... oh, here, we go:

Iowa: US 77

Sorry, that's it :-(

WA: US-197

I think I've got everyone beat in the underwhelming department. :sombrero:  Perhaps when I get done with pre-dissertation busywork, I'll see about rectifying that.

New Jersey: US 46, PROBABLY US 1 (I'm missing a mile or two at most...I probably should just go drive them to be sure).
...and that's it. I've done a lot of US 202 and US 206, but I don't think I've clinched them. Again, those are routes I should just go out and take care of, considering they're right in my backyard. We'll see.

The list of state segments of US highways I've clinched isn't very long...

1 (NJ)
1 (NY)
13 (MD)

Yeah, that's it. None in Connecticut, but I have lived in New York in the past, so I do have something for one of "my state"s!
The size of this list is looking to increase in the next 30 days. I will be finishing 7 for Connecticut (and Massachusetts) on a trip to Vermont at the end of the month, and I intend to finish 1 for Connecticut on the way home from the Providence meet.
If you always take the same road, you will never see anything new.

RustyK

I think the only one I've managed to clinch is 22 in NJ.  Maybe 1, I don't remember if I've managed to cover the whole thing.  Here in WA, I've done like 20% of US 2, but this state is too big and I have too little time.
