Alright, you got me, I'm not an expert on the ATS/DLS. I just know I've been in some MDs where they do have township roads every mile, and ultimately the numbers at the end correspond to miles from the south edge of the township. I.e. from Twp Rd ##0, going north, Twp Rd ##1 (
if there is one) is in a mile, then ##2, ##3 (if there is one
), ##4, ##5, then the second digit increments up. E.g. Twp Rd 260, 261, 262, 263, 264, 265, 270, 271, 272, 273, 274, 275, 280, etc.
I do know, without a shadow of a doubt, it's RANGE roads though, not "Ridge" road!
