I am looking for a way to automate consolidating project numbers and making descriptions match. Here is an example:

I have a very long road segment list (800+ segments) with the structure shown in the table below, which I want to consolidate into one row in a new tab with these columns: project, road, from, and to (in this example, 556, Main St, Anclote, Moog Rd).

How do I tell excel to give me the correct from and to for a project in my consolidated list? They aren't always in this order with Anclote in the top left and Moog in the bottom right.

770556Main StAnclote BlvdIrish Ave
770.1556Main StIrish AveGulf Trace
770.2556Main StGulf TraceMoog Rd
