1.45 Mile Drivable Tide Creek Fragment and smaller fragments on the north and south ends. (v.007)Google Earth Imagery Date: June 15, 2018
"An abandoned piece of the highway, including the Adams Creek Cattle Pass and the old Tide Creek Bridge, is accessible to automobile and foot traffic. This fragment... affords travelers the chance to view both the old and new routes as well as the incarnations of the Tide Creek Bridge while avoiding traffic on Highway 30."

Looking through the Lower Highway pages, I realized that I didn't have a specific page for this segment set up yet. I have photos and videos on the long AWOL hard drives, so it hasn't been a priority getting new material from this section of the old road. I'll try to grab a few shots in a couple weeks, the next time I am out that way. For now, I'll flesh it out with some Google Street View imagery.

The grassy patch on the east side of the modern highway is where the old fragment is subsumed by the modern highway. I have not checked to see if there is pavement under the grass here.

Old Route 2 hiding below the embankment for modern US 30, down where the utility pole is in this view. A reminder that the old roads usually follow the utility poles!

Culvert, Tide Creek Fragment. Not sure if this is the Adams Creek Cattle Pass or not.

Location of the culvert in the photo above. While I cannot verify that this is the Adams Creek Cattle pass until revisiting this fragment, the map evidence looks good and it is the only culvert visible in Street View, though that doesn't mean much since the old route is out of sight much of the time.

The southernmost tail of the Tide Creek Fragment is still drivable for a bit, but it becomes impassable for vehicles before merging back into the modern highway; westbound view.
