Talk:Route 3A (Massachusetts)

Merge
I'd like to propose undoing the split that did back in April, namely by putting Route 3A (northeastern Massachusetts) and Route 3A (southeastern Massachusetts) back together here.

The reasoning is, fundamentally, that the current split implies that there are two highways named Route 3A in Massachusetts. This isn't true: there's only one Route 3A, and it runs 97 miles from Plymouth to Tyngsborough. As the EOT GIS data show, Route 3A in Burlington continues from milepost 75, picking up from Route 3 in Neponset (milepost 53) after being hidden by higher order highways for 20 miles. In fact, the example given for higher order highways hiding mileposts of lower order highways is the Southeast Expressway, which is I-93, US 1, Route 3, Route 1A and Route 3A.

No Merge
The two roads have no cultural or geographic connections with one another. They should remain as two separate articles. --AStanhope 23:28, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
