You can request maps on this page. Your request will then be handled by a participant of the '''maps department'''. Instructions and guidelines are provided below. Requests will typically be handled by a member of the maps department; however, they can be completed by anyone willing to take on the request.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
|<div><big>'''Guidelines'''</big></div>
[[File:Achtung.svg|25px|Important|alt=Important]] If you can create a KML file for the article, please do so, and note the existence of the KML in your request. KML files can be imported into GIS software, which may significantly expedite your request.
*''Please be respectful.''  There is a limit of one requested map per editor and 5 requested maps per state at any time. This is to give the map creators enough time to create the requested maps while working at their own pace and leisure.  Please do not request another map until previous requests have closed unless:
*# The additional requests are the result of a [[WP:GAN|GAN]], [[WP:FAC|FAC]], or [[WP:USRD/ACR|ACR]] reviewer holding or opposing an article in one of those venues over the lack of a map or
*# One month has passed since the request was filed.
*#Any additional requests that do not meet either of these criteria will be removed.
* We ask that articles be improved to the "B-Class" assessment level before requesting a map. You may request a map for any article, but articles that are B-Class or higher will have their request expedited.
*Requests for articles assessed as Stub-Class will be removed after three months if it has not been filled and the article has not been improved to at least Start-Class by that time.

*'''Class''': {{USRD class|C}} 
*'''Action required''': New map
*'''Status''': New request
*'''KML''': No
*'''Comments''': [[U.S. Route 99]] is in need of a KML file and a new interactive map, especially with [[U.S. Route 99 in California|its California article]] where it doesn't even have a map. ~ '''[[User:Sandy14156|<span style="color:red;">Sandy</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Sandy14156|<span style="color:blue;">14156</span>]] ''<small>([[User talk:Sandy14156|<span style="color:orange;">Talk ✉️</span>]])</small>''''' 19:10, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
*:It is decommissioned though, why is it necessary? --[[User:Washuotaku|WashuOtaku]] ([[User talk:Washuotaku|talk]]) 20:56, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
*::Plenty of decommissioned routes such as [[U.S. Route 66]], [[U.S. Route 111]], [[U.S. Route 410]], and [[U.S. Route 466]] have interactive maps while US 99 does not. Also, many of those routes also have KML files, and US 99 doesn't have any. I just find it odd I guess, but I understand that it's really difficult to make maps based on former routes. So if it's not possible to make one for US 99, it's fine. ~ '''[[User:Sandy14156|<span style="color:red;">Sandy</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Sandy14156|<span style="color:blue;">14156</span>]] ''<small>([[User talk:Sandy14156|<span style="color:orange;">Talk ✉️</span>]])</small>''''' 00:58, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
*:::That's fine, I was curious is all. I don't make the files either, but it probably be best to identify what version you are specifically asking for. Like are you asking what US 99 was before its decommission in 1972, at its start, or some sort of blend of all variations (would be very colorful)? --[[User:Washuotaku|WashuOtaku]] ([[User talk:Washuotaku|talk]]) 01:06, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
*::::I'd rather have a map before its decommission, since I'd imagine it's easier than trying to get all of its variations. ~ '''[[User:Sandy14156|<span style="color:red;">Sandy</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Sandy14156|<span style="color:blue;">14156</span>]] ''<small>([[User talk:Sandy14156|<span style="color:orange;">Talk ✉️</span>]])</small>''''' 00:22, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

*'''Action required''': New map
*'''Status''': New request
*'''KML''': No
*'''Comments''': Some of the roads listed in the article might've actually been part of [[Florida State Road G1A]] rather than SR A19A. I'll be patient if anyone needs more time to do research on this one. -------[[User:DanTD]] ([[User talk:DanTD|talk]])  15:10, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

*'''Class''': {{USRD class|GA}} 
*'''Action required''': Correction/edit of [[:Wikipedia:Map data/Wikipedia KML/Interstate 695 (Maryland)]]. Change the closed section of I-695 due to the [[Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse]] to a different color to denote closed/destroyed sections.

These segments are mentioned as part of the expressway in the article. [[User:BrianHagan|BrianHagan]] ([[User talk:BrianHagan|talk]]) 02:18, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

*'''KML''': No
*'''Comments''': I am '''not''' requesting an interactive map, but I am requesting a [[Keyhole Markup Language|KML]] map for the [[Monticello Crossroads Scenic Byway]]. Unlike [[WP:USRD/GA#Assessment|other highways in the state of Georgia]], this scenic byway does not a [[Keyhole Markup Language|KML file]]. The roundabout might look like the [[U.S. Route 25|US&nbsp;25]] split ass seen [[Template:Attached KML/U.S. Route 25|here]]. --[[Special:Contributions/2600:1700:6180:6290:94BF:42AB:5F9D:CD7F|2600:1700:6180:6290:94BF:42AB:5F9D:CD7F]] ([[User talk:2600:1700:6180:6290:94BF:42AB:5F9D:CD7F|talk]]) 21:04, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

*'''Comments''': [[U.S. Route 66 in Texas]] is in a desperate need of a new interactive map and a new KML file. I've also removed the Google Maps reference; please see [[Talk:U.S. Route 66 in Texas#Removal of GM reference|this comment]] on why I've decided to do so.
