Can thank geniuses from the cookingham era for that idea as well as the genius idea to put the airport in Iowa. <br /><br />Thanks,<br />Radish Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-85719897947322593282019-01-27T03:21:49.403-06:002019-01-27T03:21:49.403-06:00The highway system through downtown was done in th...The highway system through downtown was done in the same spirit as 'urban renewal', remove as much 'blight' as possible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-37911738866268430962019-01-27T03:19:31.486-06:002019-01-27T03:19:31.486-06:00I would like to know how much traffic I-35 and i-7...I would like to know how much traffic I-35 and i-70 would have if you took out all the cars driving through the city aka the cars not originating in the city and not stopping in the city.

Cluster fuck of merges and exits. So do not say capping or just outright filling in of part of the loop is never going to happen. Boston spent way too much on the Big Dig, you do not even have to dig this. Whining that bridges fail, there are 'overpasses', all running across the loop, this is just making more overpasses, right next to each other. Shit I-35 is one big 'bridge' running over Southwest boulevard all the way to the convention center. You dumbshits talking smack just need to STFU.
