These photos are from my trip to the St. Louis roadgeek meeting. They are from Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky, and were taken on April 20, 2008.

Day 3's photos begin with a mileage reference marker for IND 62. These have been installed for all numbered routes in the Evansville area: state, US and interstate routes.

US 41 in Evansville.

Looking north on US 41. The truss bridge in the center of the photo carries southbound traffic while a newer bridge handles northbound traffic.

|
|
Turning around and heading south on US 41. There should be a "Business" designation for US 41 here.

The same truss bridge seen a few photos back.

A project to pour a new concrete roadbed along IND 66 westbound.

The New Harmony bridge linking IND 66 and IL 14 is closed.

This writing is on the back side of the sign that can be seen in the next photo. Presumably it stands for "White County Bridge Commission."

Indiana uses several treatments for the "cross traffic does not stop" sign, including this one.

This is the old routing of US 231, which came in on the left and joined IND 66 going straight.

This used to be US 231 as well as IND 66.
