History

The State Route 556 designation was assigned in 1937. It has utilized the same alignment between Beallsville and Clarington through northern Monroe County since its designation. No major changes have taken place to State Route 556's routing since it was created. The only thing that has changed with respect to this route in its history is the route at its western terminus. What is now a part of State Route 145 was designated as State Route 9 when State Route 556 was established.[2][3]

Major intersections

The entire route is in Monroe County.

gollark: At least you can still probably get IRC on port 6697.
gollark: That seems worryingly plausible.
gollark: I'm pretty sure I remember there being some vulnerabilities in older Qualcomm wireless chips/drivers, patches for which will just never reach most of the affected stuff.
gollark: It would be especially great if, like phones now, your car just didn't get security patches after 5 months, and gained an ever-growing pile of remotely exploitable vulnerabilities.
gollark: They should probably just not have network access, except for a wired connection to upload maps and such. Unfortunately, someone will definitely do something stupid like... have a 4G connection in it for interweb browsing, make the entire thing run some accursed Android derivative and put the self-driving code on there too, and expose that to the user, and make it wildly insecure.
