Greenville LRTP, CTP and STIP are all on the Greenville MPO site. Can't link right now. That'll give you the most recent plans for any loop/primary or secondary road network plans. LRTP is very conceptual, CTP is a bit more committed, STIP is what we want to have done in the next ten years. LRTP changes every time it's revised.

They also screwed up. If you zoom in on the 264 interchange, I-587 is labeled on the southbound side of the bypass. The bypass isn't even part of I-587.

Looks like NCDOT is planning to sign I-587 as a North/South route instead of East/West. Can anyone please explain to me why this makes any sense?

Because I-87 is a N/S interstate. They won't do an E/W spur on a N/S route.

It's doable. I-195 in MD and I-195 in NJ are two examples.

Unfortunately, it looks like you're right.

I looked on FHWA's website and this is all I found:

Quote:
Officials of AASHTO developed the procedure for numbering the routes. Major Interstate routes are designated by one- or two-digit numbers. Routes with odd numbers run north and south, while even numbered run east and west. For north-south routes, the lowest numbers begin in the west, while the lowest numbered east-west routes are in the south. By this method, Interstate Route 5 (I-5) runs north-south along the west coast, while I-10 lies east-west along the southern border.

Connecting Interstate routes and full or partial circumferential beltways around or within urban areas carry a three-digit number. These routes are designated with the number of the main route and an even-numbered prefix. Supplemental radial and spur routes, connecting with the main route at one end, also carry a three-digit number, using the number of the main route with an odd-number prefix.
There's nothing specifying directions for 3-digit interstates and as noted earlier, there are examples of odd-numbered spur interstates signed E/W.
