As a matter of fact, I do own the road.

Thru Traffic is twinned with the following places:

*  Autres Directions (France)

The NORTH (UK)

*  Alle Richtungen (Germany)

*  Todas Direcciones (Spain)

*  Tots Direccions (Catalonia, Spain)

*  All Other Routes (UK)

"The North" sounds like it would be a control city on I-95 in South Carolina or Georgia.

In Florida, it would be "Up North".

FTFY. Though I haven't seen that yet, only 'Altres direccions' (Other directions).
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Thanks for that.  I think I saw "All directions" eight years ago on a fingerpost near a railway crossing within walking distance of the city center of Figueres.  (There is no guarantee it still exists because this was the old Iberian gauge line which, I understand, has now been superseded by a LAV.)

Nah, it would be "Up Yonder" :bigass:

I'm not surprised that "Uptown" is used - NYC would though and I saw this on a local street in Manhattan - but mostly for the locals references here as NYC is aware that most visitors wouldn't understand - though one would need an instruction manual for the subway ;)
