Talk:U.S. Route 95 in Arizona

US 95 North/US 95 Truck Concurrency and Related Issues
While it is true the concurrency was not present in previous years, Northbound US 95 and US 95 Truck are on the same routing. ADOT retired Main Street between D Street and Urtuzuastegui Street in San Luis to the City of San Luis and moved Northbound US 95 onto US 95 Truck/William Brooks Avenue, while shifting southbound US 95 to Archibald Street. This is shown to be clear and present in Street View photographs as well as ADOT GIS shapefile data. The change happened after ADOT stopped printing Highway Logs. Sources backing up US 95 does not go down Main Street and that northbound US 95 is concurrent with US 95 Truck: As for the mileposts, I'm only trying to display the visible mileposts along every Arizona highway. I felt that would make more sense to peole driving the routes looking at visible MP signs or looking for junctions on ADOT maps, which usually show the posted mileposts instead of the exact mileage. Even ADOT documents have the mileposts as the dominant form of stationing/measurement. US 95 is subordinate to I-10 between Ehrenberg and Quartzsite and further subordinate to I-10 BL in Quartzsite. &mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 05:57, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
 * ADOT GIS Data and Official State Highway System Map
 * William Brooks Avenue at Urtuzuastegui Street showing a "BEGIN NORTH US 95" sign assembly.
 * US 95 Northbound traffic and US 95 Truck traffic is directed onto D Street from Archibald Street
 * US 95 Northbound traffic being directed from D Street onto Main Street
 * It did seem strange to me when ADOT stopped printing new Highway Logs after 2013. I had no idea that they had subsequently set up a website showing the latest official routings of various Arizona highways. Thanks, MatthewAnderson707. This will definitely come in handy.


 * As for the various technicalities of the US 95 routing, you can find my take on that and other related issues here. Greggens (talk) 03:24, 10 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the response. Also, you can toggle the settings to make it possible for you to view the route data for each route shapefile (the colored lines on the map representing the different highways) on the ADOT map. I don't know how to get three-digit mileposts or distances out of this sucker yet, so I'll keep experimenting around with that. Anyway, back to what I was saying earlier about getting the route info off the route files on the map, you go to the upper right-hand corner of the webpage one the map is open, then click on the fourth icon from the right. The Layer List should pop open. Next, you click on the arrow pointing left next to the checkbox on the "MP" option. Next, you click on the three dots next to the "State Highway System" option. Click the Enable Pop Up option that appears on the drop-down menu. After that, you should be able to view the attached data to every highway shapefile. When I clicked the routes showing up on Archibald Street and William Brooks Avenue, the data showed both routes as being "U 095" with no suffix. That would suggest both routes are mainline US 95. Neither one of the shapefiles showed "UT095", which is the ATIS designation for US 95 Truck. These shapefiles were last updated on September 2, 2015. I'm interested to know your interpretation on that. &mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 04:33, 10 October 2019 (UTC)


 * UPDATE: I was looking through the SHS Logs and Mileage summary booklets on the ADOT website. The 2015 mileage summaries booklet doesn't list US 95 Truck, which is listed by ADOT in most documents as UT095 as per the ATIS code. At the bottom of the last page of the booklet, it specifically states as shown:


 * 2015 Notes:


 * 1. The reduction of cardinal centerline mileage compared to Cy2014 is largely due to the removal of the temporary U 089 (UX089) now that the U 089 landslide repair is complete, and the disappearance of UT095 due to the reconfiguration of U 095 at the San Luis point of entry.


 * The GIS Data shows the same. US 95 Truck was retired in 2015 and is no longer an active highway. US 95 is a one way pair through downtown San Luis that bypasses Main Street. Figured I should show you this to clear up the mystery once and for all.&mdash; MatthewAnderson707 (talk|sandbox) 01:31, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
