We have a few of these around Houston, too: I think the legal name of part of Texas Highway 6 is Alvin-Sugarland Road, and if I remember right there's also an Aldine-Westfield Road, Humble-Westfield Road, and the Katy Freeway (which, interestingly, doesn't become the Houston Freeway as you get close to Katy). However, here, the names are consistent and that name on the sign is usually how mail is addressed. I can only imagine the chaos that ensues when there's no one legal name for the road as they apparently do it in Indonesia. -- Shawn K.
