US 1 in the Bronx

[edit]

As the article states that US 1 in the Bronx heads north on Webster Ave and then turns right onto E. Fordham Eastbound. However, in the reverse direction, the left turn from E. Fordham Rd WB onto Webster Ave is banned.

From WB E. Fordham Rd, a left turn onto Washington Ave and then a right turn onto E. 189 St (which ends at Webster Ave, allowing traffic to turn left onto US 1 SB) is signed as To US 1 South. Since this is signed as "To US 1 South" rather than "US 1 South", does this mean that US 1 SB is effectively discontinuous in the Bronx, since you cannot make the left turn from E. Fordham Rd onto Webster Ave? Or, should we say that US 1 SB has been realigned to use Washington Ave and E. 189 St to get from E. Fordham Rd to Webster Ave?

It's probably an undesignated detour. Kind of like the ones made in Great River, New York and Oakdale, New York due to the Oakdale Interchange. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 15:44, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's not exactly the same. In Oakdale, NY 27 is continuous through the interchange. The signs that you are referring to are just to get in between NY 27 and NY 27A, and vice versa. In the Bronx, there is no legal way to follow US 1 South; you have to follow signs that say To US 1 South.Mitsguy2001 (talk) 14:35, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
