Talk:North Carolina Highway 54

message: The cited source at  is incorrect.  While this source claims that Highway 54 terminates at the 440 beltline, this is not right.  I am currently standing at Hillsborough Street, observing signage indicating that this is still Highway 54.  I will obtain photographic documentation of this.  In the meantime, please accept this map from Google as evidence that 54 continues on under the beltline.  Nimur 19:06, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Isn't that odd. I've seen maps show both. I've been up and down Hillsborough Street many times, but I never bothered to look for signage. There IS however a project to relieve traffic on the street and divert it to Western Boulevard though. I have the newspaper article to prove that. --TinMan 19:29, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Indeed.  Both State-Ends and NC Roads list it as ending at the Beltline, and I have traveled Hillsboro Street inside the beltline MANY times.  I always assumed it ended at I-440 as well.  I would really appreciate documentation of the official end of this.  I will go looking for something on the state DOT website and see if I can find anything hard.  Mapsource software and the print NCDOT map (2003) edition seem to indicate its ending at the beltline.  Jayron32 20:12, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Just to let you know, Google Maps and Delorme have it extending thru the beltline. American map shows it ending at the beltline though. As you said, the big NC route websites have it ending at the beltline as well. Not that it means much, because this is not always true, but this picture:  shows the NC 54 shield without a directional indication, which sometimes implies that it continues thru the junction. I'm beginning to think that NC 54 was shortened back to the beltway sometime and they just didn't change the signing. Maybe not. --TinMan 21:12, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Well, I have conflicting information on the ground. I have some popular local maps showing diffrent cases. Plus there's the issue of signage. I'm assuming there's signage for NC 54 near the Capitol, but from there, I don't know if there is much. Plus, I don't think there are any signs directing both eastbound and westbound one-way streets. That's why I think there might be an error or an inconsistency. But we won't know until we get confirmation. Regardless, I agree with Srvora that we should assume that it goes much further beyond the beltline until it can be confirmed. It doesn't really matter that much though. --TinMan 20:34, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

text: Nevermind, I decided to take the long way home and drove along Hillsborough Street from 440 to the capitol and drove around the capitol. There are NO signs for NC 54 anywhere inside the beltway that I can find. In fact, at the Beltline, there is a NC 54 shield pointing straight right after you pass under the underpass, marking the beginning of NC 54. So, case closed, NC 54 terminates at US 1/I-440. --TinMan 03:57, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Why add it back on the list of major cities on 54? It's not a major city. All the other cities on the list have a population of at least 10,000 and are familiar to people all along the NC 54 corrider. Swepsonville has a population of 922 and doesn't share anywhere close the  the same reknown. Jonathan97X 20:55, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If that's the reason, then I'll agree. Your edit summary misled me: "del. Swepsonville from major cities list as it is nowhere close to being one on NC 54's route". I thought you were saying it wasn't close to being on the route. --TinMan 00:24, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
