    Fun fact, Route 20 extends all the way across the US, ending at an intersection with highway 101 in Newport, Oregon.

      @@markmoore8399 well considering that some of the roads that became designated as route 20 in Eastern Mass predate the annexation of the Oregon territory, I think it's fair to say the origin is Boston

    I am Born & Raised in Worcester, Massachusetts now living in Alabama. It’s great to see Route 20. I’ve never been on 20 Past Marlboro. I always take the pike or Route 9 into Boston. It looks nice

    "Brighton Ave." is actually *Commonwealth Ave.* all the way to 8:40 Packard's Corner, and it doesn't become North Beacon Street until you get to Cambridge Street at 11:41

    Wow, I remember driving this route coming home from working in Boston when the MassPike and Route 9 were traffic nightmares. I have a friend who lives on Concord St in Marlborough and turning down her street to visit her from Route 20 coming back from work was a normal thing for me. And taking it all the way home to Worcester was easy because I’d turn off the southwest cut off come up Lake Ave and head home.

    US 20, at 3365 miles, is one of the two remaining Federal coast-to-coast highways still intact (US 30 is the other) Good thing you're not in a hurry; that's what the Mass Pike is for. Almost as many Dunkins here as Tim Hortons north of the border. There's already an Historic US 20; several roads originally part of US 20 have been realigned or abandoned over the years. If it had been a month earlier and the weather hadn't sucked, there would have been some great pictures.

    Just a small suggestion. Turn off auto-focus and set the focus on infinity if possible. That way it won't auto-focus on the raindrops on the windshield.

    I'm sure that the citizens of Shrewsbury might be shrewd, but the name of that town is not Shrewdsbury, starting at 1:19:10. Thank goodness you weren't on US 202 in Shutesbury; who knows what would have happened. :)

    US 20, MA 2 and MA 30 in Boston must have been changed recently. If so, Wikipedia needs to be updated on all three routes.

  • @edwardrasmussen3465
    @edwardrasmussen3465 ปีที่แล้ว

    US 20 / MA 30 is Commonwealth Ave. US 20 becomes North Beacon Street after MA 30 leaves the concurrency at Packards Corner.

      I noticed 2 of them, at 12:00 and 35:19. The Massachusetts portions of US 7, US 44 & US 202 also have erroneous MA highway shields in places. Additionally, MA 3A at Exit 20 has an erroneously signed US 3 at the southbound onramp.

      On your initial topic, neither AASHTO nor MassDOT will make MA 3 part of US 3, at least in our lifetimes. That would be way too simple.
