Special and supplemental

[edit]

Just to clarify, connector routes can be both "special" and "supplemental". Michigan has its CONN M-44, but it also has non-signposted connectors whose numbers are unrelated to the routes that they connect (see http://www.michiganhighways.org/other/unsigned.html#Connectors). Nebraska's are the same, just with a special numbering scheme. Ohio also has connectors, non-signposted routes with a suffix of "C" (see the straight-line diagrams or List of State Routes in Ohio). Therefore, they vary by state in their labels, but still perform the same function. Mapsax (talk) 23:55, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. I just removed the part that suggested that Nebraska's are special routes because I couldn't think of how best to phrase what you've just said. On that list of Nebraska link/etc routes, I didn't see any that were technically "special routes" because the numbering scheme is different. Ohio's connectors seem to actually be special routes since they add the "C" like an alternate route would add an "A", but since they are unsigned, I wouldn't imagine them being very important, though might be worth a mention or two. --Triadian (talk) 00:42, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
