[edit] Roadway Referencing System
I didn't see it listed on the article page: INDOT has a Roadway Referencing System online, which gives mileage to the hundredths place (it's organized by district). Mapsax (talk) 18:15, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- Wow, this is pretty invaluable stuff. It'll help me a lot with LaPorte District work. Thanks! —Rob (talk) 18:41, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

- No problem. I neglected to mention that INDOT also has interchange diagrams to help decipher that data within complex interchanges (the collection is a bit out of date, and erroneously shows US-33 following US-20 and US-31 to the Michigan state line, but I'm sure it'd be useful).

[edit] Merging of articles
This is the first time I have seen discontinuous highways split into separate articles such as Indiana State Road 4. Is anyone opposed to merging these into one article? Also, if consensus is to keep them separate, I would suggest moving Indiana State Road 4 (middle) to Indiana State Road 4 (central), middle just doesn't sound right. --Holderca1 talk 20:45, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- I would support merging the articles. I gather that in cases like State Road 4, the sections were never continuous but always existed separately, whereas others were at one time continuous and were later split. There is a difference, and to some extent I can see the logic that was applied; but if two sections of highway have the same designation but different histories, the sections can easily be described separately within a single article. This is done on the Indiana Highway Ends pages, and it works; and it also works here on Wikipedia for highways like Indiana State Road 43, which has two sections.
