949793484 fixes a typo in this template that causes the shield on the right side of the infobox in U.S. Bicycle Route 50 to appear much larger than the shield on the left side of the infobox. It would be great if an administrator could copy this change from the sandbox to the live template. Thank you! – Minh Nguyễn ^💬 15:27, 8 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Can Colorado be added to the template? In articles discussing particular routes running throughout Colorado, such as Interstate 70 in Colorado or Interstate 25 in Colorado, the more specific shields (File:I-70 (CO).svg and File:I-25 (CO).svg, respectively) don't display in the infobox, rather the generic File:I-70.svg is displayed. It's not like this for articles concerning other states such as Utah, as shown in Interstate 70 in Utah, where the more specific shield is shown.

This request might be better suited for Template:Infobox road/shield/USA, I'm not exactly sure. I'm not very proficient in terms of these types of templates. -- Politicsfan4 (talk) 02:07, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Typically, we go by what a state's signing policy is and at present, CDOT does not mention using state-name shields. The infobox has never used the state-name shield for Colorado. Therefore

Not done. –Fredddie ™ 23:37, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Fredddie: at aaroads.com, there are plenty of Interstate 70 signs with "Colorado" letting above the 70. This CBS Article also has a photo of Interstate 70 markers with the lettering, so just because the CDOT doesn't mention it doesn't mean it shouldn't be included. Also, this photo from the "Advance Exit Guide Sign for Major Interchange", which I'm assuming was published by the CDOT, includes the Colorado lettering as well. -- Politicsfan4 (talk) 00:26, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Check the date for each Colorado photo - they are from decades ago. The current MUTCD permits the usage of the state name on interstate shields but it is up to the state's DOT for implementation. – The Grid (talk) 15:19, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
