Minnesota examples of past and present:

- Old US 2 through East Grand Forks was designated MN 202 for a few years before becoming BUSINESS US 2.
- Old US 16 through Austin became MN 116.  It was dropped around 1980 and is now BL I-90.
- Old MN 23 through/east of Sandstone is now MN 123.
- MN 135 was originally MN 35.  It was renumbered to avoid duplication with I-35.
- MN 149 was originally part of MN 49.
- MN 156 was originally part of MN 56.
- A "reverse case":  old MN 165 originally existed between Faribault and Lakeville, and became part of a US 65 reroute in the late 1950s.
- MN 172 was originally part of MN 72.
- MN 190 was originally MN 90.  As with MN 35/135, it was renumbered to avoid duplication with an Interstate.
- MN 194 was originally MN 94.  Same deal as with MN 35 and MN 90.
- Old MN 101 through Elk River was briefly designated as MN 201 before being dropped in 1985.
- Another, and recent, "reverse case":  the new US 212 freeway through Eden Prairie was designated MN 312 as segments were completed.  Upon full completion to Chaska, it became the rerouted US 212.
- The north-south part of MN 361 was originally part of US 61.

Also, MnDOT uses a hidden MN 8xx designation for both former and "extended" segments of state highway that are still maintained by MnDOT and are part of the state highway system.  They also use a hidden MN 9xx designation for former highway segments that are either proposed to be or are in the process of being "turned back" (i.e. dropped from the state system).

3. It would not surprise me if part of WI 145 had been US 45 before the Zoo Freeway was built.

Nah, US 45 has always dropped south once entering Milwaukee County ever since US 45 was added to Wisconsin.  Before the freeways, US 45 stuck to Mayfair Rd/108th St/Lovers Lane Rd (depending on the municipality) through Milwaukee County to join US 41 at Appleton Ave.  WI 145 in it's current form has been sort of a "spur route" like WI 310 or WI.

The part of 145 I was talking about was actually in Waukesha and Washington Counties. I knew that 45 used to be on Mayfair Rd.

New Jersey has some examples.

The old alignment of U.S. 9 into Cape May is NJ 109.
The old alignment of U.S. 22 toward Phillipsburg is now NJ 122 (was Alt. U.S. 22)
The old alignment of NJ 24 between Morristown and Short Hills is now NJ 124.
What was Bus. U.S. 1&9 between Tonnele Circle and the Holland Tunnel is NJ 139 (a bit of a stretch . . .)
What was the eastern end of NJ 38 (the extension of I-195 east of the GSP) is now 138.
The portion of NJ 20 around the Meadowlands became NJ 120.

Those are the only ones that come to mind.

Louisiana: From Raceland to Lafayette, old U.S. 90 is La. 182. From Lafayette to Opelousas, La. 182 is the former U.S. 167.

[cjk374]

Louisiana:  LA 3062 is an old part of LA 2, when LA 2 was routed directly into the Homer town square to intersect with US 79 and LA 9 (many many moons ago). LA 2 now intersects US 79 about 2 miles to the north.

How about adding suffixes to old alignments? IIRC, old NH 16 in Ossipee is now NH 16B.

US 95 in California used to be Bear Route CA 195.

[agentsteel53]

[bulldog1979]

the current M-120 was once part of M-20
the current M-121 was once part of M-21
the current, unsigned M-143 was once part of M-43

Ohio has 8xx as old alignments of several US routes.  Until recently, there was a US-33 cutout on OH-833 coming in from West Virginia!

Oh 833 has been in existance for 7 years now since US 33 was rerouted.
Feel free to peruse the other 3XX, 4XX, 5XX, 7XX, and 8XX routes in Ohio back on page one of this thread

what was the number for what is now current 33?  that big green truss bridge has to be much more than 7 years old.

That bridge was completed in the early 80s. It just took Ohio 20 years to complete the highway from Pomeroy to the bridge.  As for it's number, I don't know offhand. It was not X33. Heck, it might have been a WVa number.

[hbelkins]

WV 338. Unsigned but so numbered to match up with OH 338 on the other side of the bridge, before US 33 was built and routed across the bridge.

The Superstition Freeway in Phoenix became US 60 in 1992. Before that it was AZ 360.
AZ 51, the Piestewa Freeway was planned to be I-510 until 1968.
I-110/CA 110- the Harbor Fwy, Pasadena Fwy & Arroyo Seco Pkwy used to be CA 11.
I-710-the Long Beach Fwy used to be CA 7.
I-705 in Tacoma WA is an extension of WA 7.

[kharvey10]

IL 242 is an old alignment of IL 142
IL 203 is an old alignment of IL 3
IL 54 used to be US 54

[ftballfan]

Some more in Michigan:
M-10 in Detroit was US-10
M-27 in the Cheboygan area was US-27
US-127 north of Lansing was US-27

[JCinSummerfield]

Also, parts of M-25 in the thumb used to be US-25. Isn't part of M-43 formerly US-16?
And, OH Route 25 in the Toledo area used to be part of US-25 as well.

[JCinSummerfield]

My bad...just read the thread title.  You're looking for 3di that replaced 2di routes.

[Avalanchez71]

I'm starting this as I mentioned in the Old alignments as multiples/divisor routes thread about TN 243 being an old alignment of US 43.

Please post any  1 or 2 digit routes like that have become a 3 digit "child" numbering.

I always wondered why SSR 243 is numbered as US 43A or US 43 Business.  TN like to use alternates and banners.

[US71]

For a time, there was Arkansas 471 in NW Arkansas, but it was changed to 71B

MO 266 in Missouri was once US 66 between Springfield and Halltown.

MO 366 is old 66 in the St Louis area.

MO 571 is old Alternate 71 in Carthage, MO
