I remember pictures of college students building roads in China.
One can only hope.
A whole bunch of nothing to connect.
It’s a shame Elon Musk is not in a healthy emotional state right now. And that leftist bureaucratic tentacles get in the way of innovation... Otherwise we’d be working on high-speed tunnel thingies or whatever.
We need more and wider interstates.
All you need to do is connect Hw 80 in Alabama with I-20 and you’re all set. Why Killeen, TX?
No it isn't, you idiot. There is little to no merit in this idea - just look at a map of the areas concerned. This interstate you are proposing is only about 50 miles from two other interstates (20 and 85) that do the same thing. Mr. Lumpkin, take an operations research class or two, pass them and get back to me afterwards.
An interstate from nowhere to nowhere, that’s the ticket. You can’t create a demand for traffic where there is none to begin with. Just build decent access highways to I20 if warranted
If they really wanted to attract business or commerce development....first, work on your state/local property taxes (since it’s Texas, you can skip that step). Second, you offer up 99-year leases on property for development at a dirt-cheap rate. Third, you gear up your local community college to offer technology or occupational skills and recruit high school kids to make this their path. Fourth, you ensure crime and corruption stay at a low level.
Once you do these things...then you go and recruit companies to make your area their base.
Draw a line 20 miles south of Atlanta from the Atlantic through Mississippi and use I-10 at the the bottom...there is nothing there except mosquito farms as far as the eye can see. They raise champion “no-see-ums” by the billions.
We need an 8-lane bay from Casper AT to Idaho Falls
And from Brattleboro BY to Manchester Nh
And Livingston TH to Huntsville AL
We must have had an era of 'parents hanging stupid names on their kids' of which I was totally unaware.
Half the fun of watching college football games these days is to LOL/shake head incredulously at what some of those young people are called.
That and the tens of billions of dollars it would take to fund it.
How about a wall along our Southern Border? I mean if they get some extra time.
If they’re going to go out and dig the road themselves with their own funds, then I’m all for it. Otherwise, lets finish the current construction that’s been ongoing for decades ad decades with no end in sight.
““This opens up for LaGrange the entire southern part of Georgia”
Traveled through LaGrange many times back when I was a teen. The one consistent thing about that town was that 9 times out of 10 you’d get stuck at a train crossing for 10 minutes.
Oh goody. Make it even easier for the illegals and drugs to get here.
