My office, is inside #3 (the West Loop between I-10 and Westheimer). Ironically, the picture in the article... is not. That is a different portion of 610. So much for accuracy :)
Something that weird, I would have thought it was in NJ.
Agreed . Of course Austin , no matter what time or day , is the worst .
Saw a report in Houston about bad traffic interviewing drivers stuck near the Galleria on Westheimer.
Money quote from one driver:
"I moved here from Chicago. This isn't bad."
Absolutely correct.
Quick correction, the Ike is I-90, not 94, 94 is the Kennedy.
I kept my job in Chicago at 93rd & Stoney Island after moving to Downers Grove. Because the job was astoundingly great. But the commute....35 miles each way on Dan Ryan & Stevenson was a pain. But I was young & healthy so handled it. With my 9 hour work day it was 12 hours away from our gorgeous condo in Lake in the Woods. After 17 years of this, jumped on a job offer from Argonne National Labs! Could go home for lunch with the 5=6 minute commute.
I always thought “Force Ale” would make for a great brewski name.
Fair point. Good luck with your move!
It took me a minute. LOL!!
The evidence points more precisely to 58:49
Indeed !
I-5 in Seattle was so worn that last time I drove it I didn’t need to steer. The tire grooves held you in the lane with no effort on your part.
As someone who is in the process of relocating to SA, I’d be thrilled to find another reasonable route.
A protective barrier. Much better than just oil. Too much water on the layer underneath is not good. That under layer will make or break a road. Ask the Romans...
...but may be worth it.
Probably will. That much traffic needs a thick concrete layer. Stop and measure it...you're helping to pay for it. Should be at least 10".
Good point, where is Ike when you need him?
