[edit] F routes

  • F1?
  • F2?
  • F3 Grand Isle Ferry (US 2 at Keeler Bay to US 2 south of Grand Isle via Gordon Landing) - now 314
  • F4? Burlington Ferry
  • F5 Essex Ferry (US 7 east of Charlotte to ferry)
  • F6?
  • F7 ? (US 7 in Vergennes to ferry?)
  • F8?
  • F9 (22A at Shoreham to 22A west of Orwell via Larrabees Point)
  • F10 (22A west of Orwell to Chipman Point)
Should these F route descriptions go into their own seperate pages? In other words, is there enough content to warrant a seperate page? Seicer (talk) (contribs) 18:28, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
I don't think there's enough to warrant a separate page (as they are only ferry routes), but perhaps someone from Vermont could shed more light on this issue. On a related note, VT 67A connector is no longer a current route; it was decommissioned in 20032004 and is now part of VT 279. --TMF T - C 19:13, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
They are/were approaches to ferries, not just the ferries. They could be covered in articles about the ferries. --SPUI (T - C) 17:14, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Reorganizing below:

"From" and "To" columns are the earliest known endpoints of the route. Later termini changes and renumberings are noted.

Route From To Formed Notes
Vermont Route F-1
Vermont Route F-2 Isle La Motte US 2, South Alburg by 1935 Renumbered to VT 129 by 1947
Vermont Route F-3 Gordon Landing US 2, Keeler Bay by 1935 Extended north to US 2 south of Grand Isle by 1947; renumbered to VT 314 between 1956[1] and 1964
Vermont Route F-4
Vermont Route F-5 Charlotte US 7, Charlotte by 1930 Active
Vermont Route F-6 Adams Ferry Rd, Panton VT 22A, Vergennes by 1930
Vermont Route F-7 Chimney Point VT 22A, Addison 1927 Renumbered to VT 17 by 1930
Vermont Route F-8 Bridport by 1930
Vermont Route F-9 Larrabees Point VT 30, Whiting by 1927
  • Extended south over VT F-10A in 1931
  • Rerouted east of Shoreham to follow VT F-9A by 1947
  • Extended east over VT F-10 (overlap) at least through Orwell and probably to Brandon in the late 1940s[2][3]
  • Entirely replaced VT F-10 east of Orwell by 1952
  • Renumbered to VT 74 (Larrabees Point-Cornwall) and VT 73 (Larrabees Point-Brandon) between 1952 and 1956
Vermont Route F-9A F-9/VT 22A, Shoreham VT 30, Cornwall by 1930 Became part of a rerouted VT F-9 by 1947
Vermont Route F-10 Chipmans Point US 7, Brandon by 1930 Truncated to Orwell by 1952; renumbered to VT 73A by 1964
Vermont Route F-10A Larrabees Point VT 22A/F-10, Orwell by 1930 Renumbered as an extension of F-9 in 1931
  • F-1: unclear - the only ferry north of F-2 in 1935 carried US 2 to Rouses Point
  • F-4: likely modern VT 127 (Burlington-Port Kent Ferry still active) - 127 was in place by 1947
  • F-6: possibly Panton and Basin Harbor Roads west of VT 22A in Vergennes (Westport-Vergennes ferry was active in 1935)
  • F-8: possibly Crown Point Road west of VT 22A in Brigport - the road opposite it on the NY side is named "Old Ferry Road" (no ferries shown in 1935)
  • F-9A: early designation for VT 73 between Larrabees Point and F-10? --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 09:15, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] VT F-5

The true route number of the ferry approach route in Charlotte is "Vermont Route F-5", not "Vermont Route F5". See [4]. More pictures proving this point can be found by typing in "vt f-5" into a Google image search. That said, I'll make the necessary changes on the list page. --TMF T - C 04:26, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
