Mexico[edit]

What did US99 connect to in Mexico? 70.55.85.35 (talk) 05:05, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Highway 1, just like I-5 still does (at least loosely). --NE2 00:10, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You must be confusing it with US 101. I-5 jumps from old 99 to old 101 in downtown LA. US 99 ended at M5 in Calexico. --Foxyshadis (talk) 00:46, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Split[edit]

Should each state should have their own article about US 99's seperate history in the three states? — ComputerGuy890100^{Talk to me}_{What I've done to help Wikipedia} 16:15, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I have a test of U.S. Route 99 in Washington going on at User:ComputerGuy890100/Sandbox/US 99. You may comment on that talk page and here if you would like. — ComputerGuy890100^{Talk to me}_{What I've done to help Wikipedia} 16:15, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In Oregon, it's probably best covered as part of Oregon Route 99. In Washington, perhaps it could be merged with PSH 1. --NE2 20:07, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As all 3 states have an active State Route 99 that is a remnant of US 99 in that state. IMO there is no need to create state specific articles, just include the relevant material for SR 99 in the appropriate state. Dave (talk) 21:37, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Decommissioning US 99[edit]

I really do not know when if US 99 decommissioned in the late 1960s or early 1970s? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.52.96.15 (talk) 02:28, 24 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
