SH-33

[edit]

Unfortunately, signage doesn't tell the whole story on some routes, and SH-33 is one of those. The control section maps generally show ODOT's official interpretation of how highway designations are routed and where they end. If you look around the Tulsa metro on those, you can find multiple instances where signage does not accurately reflect the true nature of the route—US-75 Alternate follows SH-66 into Tulsa County, where it ends at I-44, for instance. You can also find examples of highways that are on the books but don't have any signs at all—SH-135 in Owasso, and of course, in downtown Tulsa, there's an entire interstate (I-444) which is unsigned. Oklahoma even has highways with no number, like the Duncan Bypass. Keep in mind, compared to most states, Oklahoma is pretty sloppy with its signage, so sometimes it's hard to even identify whether something like this is intentional or a careless mistake by ODOT. —Scott5114 [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 05:48, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
