Talk:List of county routes in Suffolk County, New York

message: For many of the roads listed here, the termini are shown beyond both the limits of county maintenance and the limits of where the routes are signed.  Presumably, these town-maintained sections are on the county system, and sometimes appears on maps.  Is this the way we want to have this page?  Or do we want to modify it so that it only shows the limits of county maintenance and route signage?  Also, many of the routes that are listed have no county-maintained sections at all, and are not signed at all.  Should they be included?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.64.197 (talk) 03:56, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It's been over a year, and nobody responded.  I think that even if we want to include the entire county system, including the unsigned roads that are maintained by the county (I never understood how that works; can anyone explain?), we should include a column showing the limits (if any) that are county maintained.  The Suffolk County website shows all of that.  I have no idea what source was used for the entire county system.  I would edit it, but I don't know how to update tables.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.64.197 (talk) 02:29, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Still no response.  Maybe if I post the county maintained limits here (based on the county website), someone who knows how to edit tables can add it to the table?  Since I don't have a lot of time, I'll post them to here piecemeal, but only if someone agrees to update the tables. 24.184.64.197 (talk) 03:05, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

message: CR 6 is not Kings Highway.  It is Rabro Drive.  Kings Highway runs parallel to CR 6, and does not even intersect it.  Check out Google Maps, MSN Maps, or Mapquest.  All 3 show it correctly, although you have to zoom in closely to see it where they are closely parallel.  Kings Highway is clearly not part of CR 6.  I have seen maps that show that area incorrectly.  I live very close to that area, and I am very familiar with it, and I know for sure that Kings Highway is not CR 6.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.64.197 (talk) 04:23, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: They must've turned Kings Highway into a dead end where it once met Rabro Drive. ----DanTD (talk) 15:54, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: How exactly did Kings Highway previously meet Rabro Drive?  I've always known it only as a dead end.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.64.197 (talk) 21:20, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Before I answer that, I have to ask how old you are. Now, that I've got that out of the way, every Hagstrom's Map I've ever read has indicated that Kings Highway intersected with Rabro Drive, and that part of it was Suffolk CR 6. Maybe it isn't like this now, but I'm pretty sure it was like that at one time. ----DanTD (talk) 23:14, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I am 29 years old.  I agree that maps frequently show that road incorrectly for some reason.  How exactly did they connect?  Or do you not have firsthand knowledge of the area?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.184.64.197 (talk) 01:37, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm 43, but I admit, I haven't been to that part of Hauppauge as often. Nevertheless, every now and then you can tell just by looking at a road where they may've previously intersected. Patchogue-Holbrook Road near Broadway Avenue is a good example of what I'm talking about. Go look at the Google Map again, and take a look at Rabro Drive, where it says "300."  then take a look at the angle of Kings Highway. It should be pretty clear that section roughly west of the "300" was part of Kings Highway at one time. ----DanTD (talk) 02:30, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I looked where you said, and it is not obvious to me that the roads were ever connected.  I am not saying you are wrong, just that i don't see any evidence of it from that map.  There seem to be trees in the way of where they would have connected, and I don't see any obvious old road.  Also, that section of Kings Highway is all residential, while Rabro Drive is all industrial, so it seems unlikely that they were ever the same road.  On the other hand, I agree with you about Patchogue-Holbrook Road near Broadway Avenue; Main Street clearly used to extend past Broadway Ave and was part of Patchogue-Holbrook Road.  Something else I notice is that, at least according to Google, the address numbers on Kings Highway seem to be weird.  I don't know if Google is correct or not.  Also, Google and just about every other map seems to use several "strange" names for that road (such as Half Mile Road, Kings Road, Kings Court, Conklin's Half Mile Road, Conklin's Road, and Conquins Road), even though the road is signed only as Kings Highway.  There is clearly something strange about this road.24.184.64.197 (talk) 05:02, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: By the way, I looked again, and I think I might see what you were referring to.  The trees along the western end of Kings Highway (labeled as Kings Court on the map) appear to be smaller and newer than the trees along the rest of the street, and the pavement looks different too.  So I guess Kings Highway and Rabro Drive probably did connect at one time.  I wonder how long ago. 24.184.64.197 (talk) 23:23, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
