It is time for the first update of the year. This is a normal update to the naked eye; however, it is notably the first update after doing\u00a0a tech-refresh at home<\/a>. In other words, this update is being done with my new HP Envy 17 laptop, after years of updates done with my trusty Toshiba A665. The\u00a0intended remodeling<\/a>\u00a0is still planned, but I need time to (a) read my responsive design book, and (b) pick a design that I like. As I’ve noted before, I have no plans to change the content or my method of content generation. I have settled on my replacement editor for\u00a0HoTMetaL Pro<\/a>:\u00a0BlueGriffon<\/a>. as it seems to have a good tag manipulation mode. I also plan to use\u00a0Pinegrow<\/a>\u00a0to check the responsive design aspects. and plan to continue to use\u00a0Amaya<\/a>\u00a0as the main editor (even though Amaya seems to be abandonware). You can see\u00a0my thoughts on what I would like from the redesign here<\/a>; it also explains how the site is generated.<\/p>\n

Moving on to the updates: Updates were made to the following highways, based on my reading of the papers (which are posted to\u00a0the roadgeeking category at the “Observations Along The Road”<\/a>\u00a0and to the\u00a0California Highways Facebook group<\/a>) as well as any backed up email changes. I also reviewed the\u00a0the AAroads forum<\/a>. This resulted in changes on the following routes, with credit as indicated [my research(1)<\/sup>, contributions of information or leads (via direct mail) from Anneliese \u00c5gren(2)<\/sup>, Tom Fearer(3)<\/sup>, ClassicHasClass on AAroads(4)<\/sup>, DTComposer on AAroads(5)<\/sup>, Mark F on AARoads(6)<\/sup>, Kniwt on AAroads(7)<\/sup>, Plutonic Panda on AAroads(8)<\/sup>, richardwm15 on AAroads(9)<\/sup>, Sparker on AAroads(10)<\/sup>, Chris Sampang on AAroads(11)<\/sup>, Oscar Voss on AAroads(12)<\/sup>, Alex on AAroads(13)<\/sup>:\u00a0Route\u00a01<\/a>(1,2,3,9)<\/sup>, Route\u00a02<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a04<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-5<\/a>(1,6)<\/sup>, I-10<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a011<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a012<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a013<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a014<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-15<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a016<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a017<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a018<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a020<\/a>(1,13)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a021<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a022<\/a>(1,6)<\/sup>, Route\u00a024<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a025<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a029<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, LRN\u00a030<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a033<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a036<\/a>(10)<\/sup>, Route\u00a037<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, I-40<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0US\u00a040<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a041<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a045<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a046<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, US\u00a048<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a049<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,US\u00a050<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a057<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a059<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a060<\/a>(1,4)<\/sup>, Route\u00a061<\/a>(3,10)<\/sup>,\u00a0LRN\u00a069<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a070<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a071<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a074<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0LRN\u00a074<\/a>(10)<\/sup>, Route\u00a075<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a077<\/a>(3,11)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-80<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a082<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a084<\/a>(1,3,10)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a087<\/a>(5,10)<\/sup>, Route\u00a091<\/a>(1,6,8)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a092<\/a>(10)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a096<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a099<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>,\u00a0US\u00a0101<\/a>(1,3,8)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-105<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, LRN\u00a0105<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0108<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0110<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0111<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0112<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0113<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0117<\/a>(10)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0120<\/a>(1,3,7)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0123<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0126<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0128<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0134<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0141<\/a>(3,10)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0146<\/a>(12)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0149<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0154<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0162<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0166<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0179<\/a>(3,10)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0180<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,Route\u00a0185<\/a>(3,11)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0187<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0191<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0192<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, US\u00a0199<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, I-210<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0220<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0227<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0229<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0238<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0241<\/a>(1,6,8)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0242<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0243<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, Route\u00a0260<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0262<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0275<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, I-280<\/a>(1,3,10)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0282<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0Route\u00a0299<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, I-380<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>, I-405<\/a>(1,10)<\/sup>,US\u00a0466<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, Route 480(1,3)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-505<\/a>(3,10)<\/sup>, I-580<\/a>(1,3)<\/sup>, I-680<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-710<\/a>(1)<\/sup>, I-780<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, I-880<\/a>(1)<\/sup>,\u00a0I-980<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, County Sign Route\u00a0G9<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, County Sign Route\u00a0J2<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0County Sign Route\u00a0J4<\/a>(3)<\/sup>,\u00a0County Sign Route\u00a0J7<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, County Sign Route\u00a0J9<\/a>(3)<\/sup>, County Sign Route\u00a0S21<\/a>(7)<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Keilah Keiser, removed some broken links from the links page. Went through and updated all the regional links. If you identify any links that are bad, please let me know — they haven’t been checked in a long time. Kudos to those folks that kept their pages up or had redirects. Boos to those who took down their pages, abandoned their sites, or didn’t tell me when things moved. Surprisingly, all those Angelfire sites are still up. Tripod and Geocities, not all that much. I also went through and changed all the Sure Why Not? blog links to Gribblenation.org blog links. I also went through the Road Links on AAroads, which resulted in more changes and confirmations for all the links on the highway resources page, as well as updates to regional links.<\/p>\n

Added some additional map sources to\u00a0the maps page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reviewed\u00a0the Pending Legislation page<\/a>, based on the\u00a0new California\u00a0<\/a>Legislature site<\/a>. As usual, I recommend to\u00a0every\u00a0<\/em>Californian that they visit the legislative website regularly and see what their legis-critters are doing. Although numerous bills have been introduced, none have gone to the Governor for signature yet. As many people are unfamilair with how the legislature operates (and why there are so many “non-substantive changes” and “gut and amend” bills), I’ve added\u00a0the legislative calendar<\/a>\u00a0to the end of the Pending Legislation page.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I checked\u00a0the CTC Liaison page<\/a>\u00a0for the results of the CTC meetings from December 2018 through March 2019 (2018-12-05\/06<\/a>,\u00a02019-01-30\/31<\/a>,\u00a02019-03-13\/14<\/a>). Note that I tend not to track items that do not impact these pages — i.e., pavement rehabilitation or replacement, landscaping, drainage, culverts, roadside facilities, charging stations, or other things that do not impact the routing or history, unless they are really significant. As such, the following items were of interest (note: \u00b0 indicates items that were below the level of detail for updating the specific route pages;\u00a0♠\u00a0is an indicator used to keep track of what has been added to the pages) :<\/p>\n
