MILEPOST (M.P.) ADJUSTMENTS
Road realignments cause the distance
between two points to change.
Rather than renumbering the entire
road, a milepost equation is used.

Water line crossing at Station 307+07 is 7 feet from station 307+00 and 919′, or
0.17 miles, from Begin Project (307+07 minus 297+88 or 30,707′-29,788′=919′),
which places the crossing at reference marker 154.164.
Stationing is usually called
“Centerline Stationing”
because the station line is
usually drawn at the
centerline of the highway.
