Routing through downtown? edit

This article claims there's a concurrency along US 11/US 41/US 64/US 72/SR 17/SR 2 which I can't find on Google Maps, the only cited source. From there, as well as more primary sources such as TDOT and TIGER maps, the actual concurrency appears to run along Tennessee Ave, W 40th St, Alton Park Blvd, and Market St to 20th St. See sources such as TIGER web https://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/tigerweb/

I'm inclined to change this accordingly but wanted to put this out there in case someone has evidence of a route realignment that I'm missing. Tomservo (talk) 03:51, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Looking at the TDOT maps, I don't think SR 58 has a long concurrency at all. It looks like it ends at US 11/US 64/SR 2/SR 27 and then picks back up at the SR 153/SR 17 interchange. –Fredddie ™ 01:21, 25 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Yeah that segment is a bit weird. More recent TIGER maps (2017-2021) do show a connection between those points but indeed TDOT maps, and possibly older TIGER maps, do not. I haven't found actual signage for 58 anywhere along Amnicola Highway for example and even found a possibly covered up sign at the Dupont Highway exit toward downtown. It could still be an unsigned section but seems weird if they actually removed existing signage for a section with no other concurrency.

Since the TIGER mapping appears newer than the TDOT mapping I've aligned with this for now. It looks like most commercial mappers such as Google Maps, Apple Maps, and ESRI agree, though Bing does not. Tomservo (talk) 20:43, 25 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

SR 58 may have been along the Amnicola Highway at one point, but it's been at least since the Street View cameras came through in 2007 that it hasn't routed that way. –Fredddie ™ 23:59, 25 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've received a memo from TDOT explaining the proper alignment and I will be attempting to adjust the article accordingly:

"

Commissioner J. Bruce Saltsman Sr. has approved the following state highway revisions in Chattanooga. These revisions become effective November 1, 2001.

Deletion

State Route 58 from State Route 27/58 (Market Street) to the junction of State Route 319. This section or road will remain the Functional Classification of Urban Principal Arterial. (FCO-5395)

Re-numbering

State Route 58 from State Route 319 to State Route 153 will be re-numbered State Route 319. This section or road will remain the Functional Classification of Urban Principal Arterial

Run-along

State Route 58 from State Route 27/20th Street, will run along State Route 27, State Route 8, State Route 2, and State Route 17 to State Route 153.
