  • state: the postal abbreviation for the state this route lies in
  • type: the type prefix for the highway (e.g. US, SH, CR). All types that are accepted by {{jct}} for the selected state are accepted by this template.
  • route: the route number of the highway.
  • dab: disambiguation, if needed.
  • length_mi: the length of the highway in miles. Must contain a number value (passing a string will result in an error). Converts the given length to kilometers and fills in the "Length (km)" column.[1]
  • length_km: the length of the highway in kilometers. Must contain a number value (no strings). Converts the given length to miles and fills in the "Length (mi)" column.[1]
  • length_ref: reference for the length value.
  • terminus_a: west or south terminus.
  • terminus_b: north or east terminus.
  • beltway: if present, overrides terminus_a and terminus_b, displaying its argument in a single cell that spans both columns.
  • local: any local names the highway has. Usually restricted to lists of county-level scope (i.e. lists of highways by county, county routes, etc.). Any list which includes this column must call this template with {{routelist row|local|(parameters...) for each instance of the template in order to generate the column, or the local parameter will be ignored.
  • established: date that the highway designation was established. Must be a date value (passing a value that does not validate as a date will result in an error). Only the year will be displayed in the "Formed" column, though exact dates will be used for sortkey purposes. Inserting "proposed" here colors the row yellow and displays "—" in the "Removed" column. If omitted, "—" will be displayed in the "Formed" column.
  • decommissioned: takes either "yes" or the date that the highway designation was removed from service. Only the year will be displayed in the "Removed" column, though exact dates will be used for sortkey purposes. Past dates color the row gray. If omitted, "current" will be displayed in the Removed column (unless established=proposed). Inserting "yes" here colors the row gray and displays "—" in the "Removed" column.
  • established_ref, decommissioned_ref: reference for the established and decommissioned values.
  • circa_established, circa_decommissioned: if "yes", the corresponding column will be marked as an approximate (circa) date.
  • notes: content to be displayed in the "Notes" column. If omitted, no cell will be produced. If passed the value "none", a blank cell will be produced.
  • noshield: set to anything to disable the shield
