Ooh, a highway! My favorite has to be when the letter is mistaken for a directional suffix, e.g. "State Highway North". I even saw the letter O mistaken for a direction suffix in the TIGER import (what direction could that mean?)

Sometimes they're mistakenly referred to as county roads, too (e.g. "N Cl N Highway"), which I bet hearkens back to the Takeover Program. Dunno for sure, though. I wish I could know the rationale behind some of these names.

This name is provided by the county, not the state, and is the official name used in physical land addresses. The road is still designated as P by the state, and that's what goes in the ref tag(s) and route relation(s).

relation/17639284 is correct, but the way names were out of sync with it.

^ To clarify, a local community may refer to a road by whatever name is chooses. The directional affixes on MO supplemental state routes from TIGER, however, are poor quality. The TIGER import wrongly assumed, for example, the letters N, E, S, and W were directional indicators rather than highway designations.

155669788

Directional affixes are not part of the state designation, by the way. Counties may have their own locator systems, but those locators do not render as affixes on state designations.

155669788

This is a manual edit. Some varying renderings discovered:

Highway Af
State Route Af
State Highway Z
East State Highway HH
East Route HH
State Highway Y North

There is a possibility that this was a misnomer "Audrain Road E" in the same vein as "County Road E" as is seen frequently with supplemental state routes, and the E got expanded to East... In that case, there should be no name.

Correction: this impacted tag name="State Highway ZZ", not tiger:name=
