Now they’ve got to get the part between I-40 and Wickenburg, AZ finished. Lots of busy and dangerous two-lane stretches still remaining.
Hell they are still arguing over the interchange at I 40 and 93 at Kingman. WTH they cant simply take off from 93 east of Kingman and go right up to Dolan Springs and connect I dunno.
GD Kingman and their good ol boys club. I pointed out that any of the west bound traffic will go through Kingman anyway. Also, the interchange is nearly already there if the swing south along the Cerbat Hills on the Goldne Valley side and connect at the Old Rt 66 and I 40 section. All they’d need is about 5 to 6 miles of new road and one overpass and an upgrade at the Rt 66 and I 40 interchange. Instead, they wanna come down the hill and try and connect at the Clackman Canyon somewhere. All that rock cutting and two overpasses and hard to build new road.
Right now, if anyone is familiar with the present situation, nearly everyday traffic backs up over Coyote pass nearly to the 93 highway 68 interchange. What a friggan mess.
I was more thinking between vegas and Reno my own self. But it ain’t likely I’ll ever see that.
Make that Clacks Canyon. Geez.
Point is, they are intending to swing that to Kingman and add more miles to the system. Building a road straight off from 93 at the 93 and I 40 to Dolan Springs wouldnt be that hard. That road could go through Hackberry and up and connect at/near Dolan Springs.
Dont think the trucks stops/businesses at Kingman havent had anything to say about it?
Yes! Drove that last night. Almost the worst part of our Phoenix to Tahoe drive.
Yep. Undivided two lane traffic highways are head-on death traps.
Sure will be nice when we can avoid that idiotic roundabout north of Wickenburg. Who thought that was a good idea?
US 93 is a whole lot better than it was 30 years ago, but I still have to take to the shoulder about every 10 or 12 trips to avoid a head-on with some idiot trying to pass where there’s no room.
