courses with holes playing over a road
« on: July 26, 2009, 08:10:47 PM »
I am looking for examples of courses that have hole(s) playing over a public road.  I know Shinnecock and The Old Course have roads but would like more examples.
Thanks in advance.

Valparaiso CC plays over a fairly busy road (Indiana)

#17 at Olympia Fields North plays over the entrance road.

I think its #9 at Long Cove where the back tee plays over a road.

Mid Ocean does indeed play over a lot of roads, on the tee shot to the 2nd, the tee shot to the 4th, the tee shot on the 13th, the tee shot on the 14th, the second shot on the 15th, and the tee shot on the 16th.  Four of those are playing over one of the main artery roads on Bermuda, and to make matters worse, half the traffic is people riding motor scooters.

Although I think it's just the driveway into the course you can add Ganton to the list.

Dellwood CC in New City, New York. Both the 1st and 17th holes both play over an active public road. The club actually does not allow drivers to be hit from the 17th tee or ANY club from the tee that might reach the roadway.

Tom Doak,

The 7th at Pine Valley also plays over the same road.

The 2nd at Fenway.

Several holes at Dellwood, an AWT course in New York.
# 1 and # 7.

I believe that one of the holes (7th ?) has a traffic light on the tee, for the golfers.
Red = don't hit, Green = tee off.
It's quite unique.

The 10th at GCGC ?

Winged Foot East #4 from at least one set of back tees plays over a road and over water!

Also, Gleneagles at the Equinox in VT plays over a road.
