If "Old Olive Street Rd" and "Old Olive St Rd" are one road, ie. connected and not and a corner. Then things that may explain it are different addresses where they intersect, or if they are in different jurisdictions. Like where two cities meet. But if the addressing continues between the different names, then it seem one sign is wrong. I personally think "Old Olive Street Rd" should be used, and only cardinal direction prefix and type suffix abbreviated. The rest being the core name.<br>
<br>That said, someone really liked to use Olive in the naming....<br><br>Dale<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, May 17, 2010 at 4:44 PM, Nathan Edgars II <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:neroute2@gmail.com">neroute2@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
So if "Old Olive Street Rd" and "Old Olive St Rd" are different, how<br>
do you distinguish them in speech? Or are they actually<br>
interchangeable names, as would seem logical (in other words, one or<br>
the other may be "official", but both are unambiguous and correct for<br>
all practical purposes)?<br>
