Been there, done that. I-95 in western Connecticut on a summer Saturday is a friggin’ parkiung lot.
Pinging the usual suspects to the article, also.
I -95 doesn’t go through western Connecticut. It runs North/South along the coast from New York state to Rhode Island. I - 684 runs north/south along the edge of the NY/CT border. It connects with I - 84 in eastern NY that will take you through CT into Massachusetts, connecting with the Mass Pike. Just FYI.
It’s been a long time since I’ve driven I-95 through South Carolina. I don’t know what the best solution might be. But I do know that we are still running a defacto open borders policy, with catch and release, sanctuary cities, chain migration, birthright citizenship, and a farcical asylum system custom-built for abuse. As long as that remains the case, we will continue to double the population every 50 years or so. And I am quite confident that we will not/cannot double our road net every 50 years. On our current course, we are going to have dense urban sprawl from Maine to Florida and from the piedmont to the coast. If we don’t control the borders, our children will have to fundamentally change the way they get around. It’s not a matter of adding a lane here and there to I-95. It’s a matter of doubling highway capacity every generation, and that’s not going to happen.
