NATIONAL HIGHWAY 23
Former Alignment: Brooks Creek
This former alignment of NH23 was bypassed in March 1990. It was a long section between Lake George and Sutton that had was narrow, winding with a horrible surface.There are no remnants of NH23 signage along this section, mainly because i dont think there ever was any signage, there are no major intersections.
