Route description is mixed up
[edit]Concerning this passage: "SR 111 continues northwest as a major arterial road, four lanes or wider, through Indio, La Quinta, Indian Wells, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and Cathedral City. As it approaches this area, the northbound traffic is on Indian Canyon Drive, and the southbound is on Palm Canyon Drive. An alternate route runs on Gene Autry Trail while mainline SR 111 continues west on Vista Chino. Continuing west from Cathedral City, the highway enters Palm Springs, then swings north and then west to bypass downtown, while SR 111 Business passes through the congested downtown area. "
Looking at a map, this passage appears to describe things in the wrong order. The section where the northbound traffic is on Indian Canyon Drive and southbound on Palm Canyon Drive, is actually in Palm Springs, in the "congested downtown area". This used to be Route 111, as I recall, but I think it's now 111 Business, while Route 111 now runs along Gene Autry Trail and then west on Vista Chino. The text implies that Palm Canyon Drive, Indian Canyon Drive, Gene Autry Trail, and Vista Chino, are in the part of the highway before you get to Palm Springs (traveling northbound/westbound), but those are actually later, in Palm Springs. 2600:8802:D00:CA:0:0:0:3 (talk) 05:19, 31 August 2025 (UTC)
