http://www.cqql.net/us-27 It may not have had the romance of famed Route 66 (that "winds from Chicago to L.A."), but it meant summer trips to the cottage and the Mackinac Bridge for millions of residents and visitors. Sadly, those days are now history. The entire US-27 corridor in Michigan is now GONE!

Well, OK... it's been renamed. It's now US-127.

 SHIELDS UP! Highway Shield Generator
cmap.m-plex.com/int/

The Highway Browser turns your web browser into an interchange/intersection/junction browser using the features of Google Maps:

  1. Browse maps and aerial imagery of junctions and interchanges of highways in the United States.
  2. Look up points along highways to make a list of clinched highway segments to be mapped.
    (Currently only Primary and Business Interstate highways are available for mapping.)
cmap.m-plex.com/

This site allows users to map which portions of interstate highways they have travelled, or "clinched," and calculates how many miles of the Interstate Highway System they have travelled.
