The last of the burger joints, and as far as I got on Route 66. I was so burgered out by this point it wasnt even a joke.
They made a good milkshake though. I didn't get tired of those.
La U.S. 66, también conocida como U.S. Route 66, Route 66 (Ruta 66), The Main Street of America (La calle principal de América), The Mother Road (La carretera madre) y la Will Rogers Highway (Carretera de Will Rogers), formó parte de la Red de Carreteras Federales de Estados Unidos. Una de las rutas federales originales, la U.S. 66 se estableció el 11 de noviembre de 1926, aunque no se señalizó hasta el año siguiente (...). La Ruta 66 fue objeto de muchas mejoras y cambios de trazado, muchos de ellos afectaron bastante a la longitud de la carretera, uno de ellos fue el traslado del final de Los Ángeles a Santa Mónica. Contrariamente a la creencia generalizada, la Ruta 66 nunca llegó al océano; acababa en lo que era el inicio de la U.S. 101, lo que es hoy la intersección de Olympic Boulevard con Lincoln Boulevard. Nunca estuvo en la intersección de Ocean Boulevard con Santa Monica Boulevard, a pesar de que haya una placa dedicatoria de la Ruta 66 como la Will Rogers Highway (Carretera de Will Rogers) allí.
La Ruta 66 fue el principal itinerario de los emigrantes que iban al oeste, especialmente durante las tormentas de polvo de los años 30, y sostuvo la economía de las zonas que la carretera atravesaba. La gente que prosperó durante la creciente popularidad de la carretera fue la misma que años más tarde luchó por mantenerla viva cuando empezó a construirse la nueva Red de Autopistas Interestatales de Estados Unidos.
La U.S. 66 (Ruta 66) fue descatalogada (es decir, oficialmente retirada de la Red de Carreteras de Estados Unidos) el 27 de junio de 1985 después de decidirse que la carretera ya no era relevante y haber sido reemplazada por la Red de Autopistas Interestatales de Estados Unidos. Partes de la carretera que discurre a través de Illinois, Nuevo México y Arizona han sido señalizadas con letreros de "Historic Route 66" (Ruta Histórica 66) y ha vuelto a aparecer en los mapas de carreteras de esta forma.

U.S. Route 66 (also known as the Will Rogers Highway after the humorist, and colloquially known as the "Main Street of America" or the "Mother Road") was a highway within the U.S. Highway System. One of the original U.S. highways, Route 66 was established on November 11, 1926 -- with road signs erected the following year. The highway, which became one of the most famous roads in America, originally ran from Chicago, Illinois, through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before ending at Los Angeles, covering a total of 2,448 miles (3,940 km). It was recognized in popular culture by both a hit song (written by Bobby Troup, originally recorded by the Nat King Cole Trio in 1946, and later performed by such artists as Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, The Manhattan Transfer and Depeche Mode) and the Route 66 television show in the 1960s.
Route 66 underwent many improvements and realignments over its lifetime, changing its path and overall length. Many of the realignments gave travelers faster or safer routes, or detoured around city congestion. One realignment moved the western endpoint farther west from downtown Los Angeles to Santa Monica.
Route 66 served as a major path for those who migrated west, especially during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, and it supported the economies of the communities through which the road passed. People doing business along the route became prosperous due to the growing popularity of the highway, and those same people later fought to keep the highway alive in the face of the growing threat of being bypassed by the new Interstate Highway System.
U.S. 66 was officially removed from the United States Highway System on June 27, 1985 after it was decided the route was no longer relevant and had been replaced by the Interstate Highway System. Portions of the road that passed through Illinois, Missouri, New Mexico, and Arizona have been designated a National Scenic Byway of the name "Historic Route 66". It has begun to return to maps in this form. Some portions of the road in southern California have been redesignated "State Route 66", and others bear "Historic Route 66" signs and relevant historic information.

MTS' Route 25 has been reconfigured since the 1980s, when this phot was taken. It still serves Kearny Mesa, but now operates with a minibus through Serra Mesa, Linda Vista, Tierrasanta, and Fashion Valley.
When London had sensible buses Arriva’s M63 is departing Victoria for Seven Sisters in November 2006.
The arch at the Santa Monica Pier is an icon that often represents the western end of U.S. Route 66. The highway officially ended two blocks northwest of the arch at the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and Ocean Avenue. The arch is much more "scenic."

Finally got the micrometers mounted and got to play with the new flashes for the image. Looking forward to putting the new router base to use
I tend to call this type of road a hybrid highway; I do not know the exact term for them. This type of road has both intersections and interchanges but is otherwise built up to limited-access highway standards. Most roads with ground-level intersections in Ohio are 55 mph but these road are an exception generally with a 65 mph speed limit in the western half of the state and a 60 mph speed limit in the eastern half of the state. The speed limits were 65 or 50 on these roads even before the higher 70 mph speed limit for some rural interstates and limited access highways went into affect in 2013. Some other divided highways with houses, traffic signals, and businesses on them do have a 60 mph speed limit.

This Route 30, using a 2010 Orion VII-CNG is seen a block from the Santa Rosa Transit Mall. After going AROUND the long block, this bus will pull in and have a short layover before heading back out.

Route 45 is a critical east/west route and capacity is expected to increase substantially by the year 2030. MoDOT is widening this route to 4 lanes to accommodate development, and improve traffic safety.
An access road down the roadway slope has been built to facilitate the Route 2 reconstruction project in the Florida, Mass area.

London United DPS30701 on route 219. Seen in Hammersmith Bridge Road. This is a sort of checkpoint. Only one bus in each direction is allowed on Hammersmith bridge at one time as it has a 7.5T weight limit. The buses have to wait here until the one in front has cleared the bridge.
In the background is Hammersmith Flyover.
