Notable changes:

  1. Recentered I-95 at the DE/PA line again.
  2. Added the PA portion of the Betsy Ross Bridge (connects to NJ 90) to usasf.
    http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=2706.0
  3. Readded PA43Cha as I had accidentally removed it as an alternate name.
  4. Fixed naming error for PA 66 ALT (East Vandergrift) by changing it to PA 66 ALT (Vandergrift). Note that I attempted to leave PA66 AltEva as an alternate label. I also recentered bits of PA 66, PA 56, and PA 356 in the area along with all of PA 66 ALT.
    http://forum.travelmapping.net/index.php?topic=2705.0
    Other changes include:
    a) PA 356: Lined up with PA 66, replaced TreDr (Treeline Dr) with Orr Ave, recentered Melwood Rd (MelRd), and added White Cloud Rd (WhiCloRd)
    b) PA 66: Lined up with PA 356, Added OrrAve, Logansport Rd (LogRd), and Crooked Creek Dam Rd (CCDamRd). Removed JefSt and PennAve (made regular shaping points).
    c) PA 66 ALT (Vandergrift): Replaced Community Park Rd(ComParkRd) shaping point with Orr Ave, added Garvers Ferry Rd (GarFerRd) and Spruce Hollow Rd (SprHolRd), and replaced Mansfield Grove Rd (ManGroRd) label with regular shaping point.
    d) PA 56: Added MelRd (Melwood Rd) and Hyde Park Rd. Made OakSt a regular shaping point due to that road seeming to be residential. Also changed LeeRd to Leechburg Hill Rd (LeeHillRd)
  5. PA 73: All new points connect PA 73 to I-95 (Exit 30) in some fashion. Also recentered at PA/NJ Line and changed TacSt_W to LevSt (Levick St).
  6. US 202: Removed Unused Alt Label (DekPk_S)

I may have accidentally broke two list files.
Replaced TreDr (Treeline Dr) with Orr Ave and recentered Melwood Rd (MelRd).
Recentered, replaced Community Park Rd(ComParkRd) with Orr Ave, added Garvers Ferry Rd (GarFerRd) and Spruce Hollow Rd (SprHolRd), and replaced Mansfield Grove Rd (ManGroRd) label with regular shaping point.
Added OrrAve and Logansport Rd(LogRd), Removed JefSt and PennAve (made regular shaping points)
Added MelRd (Melwood Rd) and Hyde Park Rd.  Made OakSt a regular shaping point due to that road seeming to be residential.  Also changed LeeRd to Leechburg Hill Rd (LeeHillRd)
Also recentered at PA/NJ Line and changed TacSt_W to LevSt (Levick St).  All new points connect PA 73 to I-95 (Exit 30) in some form.

Noted. I may ask to hold this pull request for a day or two if I do not get to look at them tonight. I did not see anything on the forum as of this post, and I have other things going on tonight and tomorrow.

PA56: OakSt should be left visible, as visible shaping points at an intersection are preferred to hidden ones.

PA66:
OrrAve is a bit too close to waypoints on either side, and density here is starting to get a bit overdense. Looks to be of marginal use.
+X1A and +X1B should be left visible, as discussed above.
If nixing DiaAve (presumably Tim only put it there for shaping) we could lose +X2A as well.
The conversion of +X2B to LogRd is good.

PA66AltVan:
+X1A should revert to GroSt. Or it could just be deleted; the route shape would still be within tolerance wthout it.
Are GarFerRd or SprHolRd really going to be used by all that many travelers?
+X2A should revert to ManGroRd.

PA73:
The new CotAve_E point looks appropriate.
However, the new MilSt and StaRd_W look, as Jason (who developed usact & usari) would say, "a bit rampy". Jason was the one who talked me out of having points on NH33 for I-95_S and I-95_N, on either side of a GraDr point IIRC. (NH33 is still arguably too dense overall, and could benefit from a trimdown. "If I were drafting it now...")

PA356: Utility of WhiCloRd?
CSV changes look good.
BetRossBri: Thanks for adding this. I may the first one to add it to my .list file. :D

I'll make a final comment on the forum when done as I get to these. The comment below will be edited as I have plans tonight.

PA 73: I removed all points in the vicinity except for the new CotAve_E point. The reasoning for adding the new point was because I felt that the way it was drafted presumed PA 73 having one-way segments there with NewStaRd_E and TorAve. IMO Cottman Ave is the centerpiece of the I-95/PA 73 interchange and is where PA 73 turns back towards the northwest from I-95. The NewStaRd_E point is now an alternate label to CotAve_E.

PA 356: WhiCloRd(White Cloud Rd) connects to PA 56 near the new MelRd (Melwood Rd) point via Hulton Rd and the BonShoRd (Bonfire Shortcut Rd) point.

PA 66:
I agree about OrrAve and SheRd being too close to each other. I have been trying to have points on parallel routes in areas leading to me placing OrrAve (see PA 66 ALT and PA 356); however, I removed OrrAve as who would just go from there to PA 819 or to SheRd. (probably no one)
I removed +X1A(JefSt) completely and replaced +X1B(PennAve) with PennRd. I am not a huge fan of having visible points at dead end roads or ones that do not go anywhere outside of residential areas, but I see that there should be a point to get into Riverview. This is all within tolerance. I will note that I have changed some visible points into shaping points in some areas (see PA 10 and PA 27 for instance before I just tweaked them slightly).

PA66AltVan: I added Walnut St in Vandergrift as it connects to PA 56 at Oak St/Longfellow St. I removed LowMonRd and GarFerRd. Points north of PA 56/PA 66 are now Airport Rd(AirRd), SprHolRd, and ManGroRd (changed back from +X2A). The original goal here was to have parallel points on roads intersecting both PA 66 and PA 66 ALT.

PA 56: Made Oak St Longfellow St (LonSt). I could have fully removed this one but it puts the line on the other side of the river even within tolerance. I added Walnut St to PA66AltVan due to this point being here.
