Major State Touring Routes

|

I've noticed in driver's ed classes, they try to trick New York drivers by asking the question are Even Route numbers North-South or East-West? Always ask if you are asking about state or federal-designated touring routes.

Well, if you are talking about NYS Touring Routes, even route numbers are North-South. But if you are talking about US Highways and Interstate highways even routes are East-West.

NYSDOT Rest Areas Across NY

|

This helpful interactive map shows NYS DOT rest areas along the major interstates (excluding the New York Thruway) with bathrooms. A few of these rest areas are closed, but it will give you an idea which facilities are open. Tomorrow, I will do a map of Thruway Rest Stops. I was originally going to combine these into one map, but it turns out the DOT and Thruway Authority record information on their Rest Areas in a very different format.
