Then a break until July 1.

Thought I'd be shut out today, but thanks to the unusual concurrency between WA 108 and its own BUS route in McCleary, I have a play:



The photo's location is just after both routes start at WA 8 west of town. After the right turn ahead, both routes duplex into town, where WA 108 BUS breaks away to pass through downtown McCleary on its way back to WA 8, while WA 108 heads north to eventually meet US 101 at Kamilche.

Since the BUS 108 loop begins & ends on WA 8, it seems like it would've made more sense for it to be BUS 8. But I guess WSDOT knows better than me?

My only other plays would be a repeat of the Pennsylvania 58/Pennsylvania 358 pair that 74/171FAN played already today, and they'd all probably be reposts for me anyway, so that's it for today.
