@Kevbox2008: Hey, thank you! How's the progress along US 95 coming along?

[Cozybop]

That is probably the widest highway of all of Nevada.

[FreewayBrent]

@Cozybop: It sure is, although the recent widening of I-15 thru Vegas has turned I-15 into a pretty wide freeway as well.

it might be an extension of future I 11 but if its extended to canada, it might be 95 to carson city then 395 till it reaches us 20 then follows it east to us 95 then us95 till a future bypass in the boise area then it will go east to ID 69 then follow it to I 84 then west to a future freeway corridor 4 miles east then follows that to ID 52 then to ID 55 then back to us 95 then to us195 till spokane then 3 miles east to a future freeway corridor being built then follows us395 to canada

@FreewayBrent I live in Henderson so I haven't been out there in a while but the last time I was out, they were making GOOD progress.

[FreewayBrent]

@NHRHS2010: Yeah, unfortunately so. Before its reconstruction, US 95 thru Vegas was one of the busiest freeways in North America on a lane-by-lane basis.

I-95 in the Bronx is pretty awful, too! And the congestion levels along the George Washington Bridge are no joke, either. I remember back in 2009, when it took me almost 1 hour, just to transfer from I-87 North to I-95 West in the Bronx; not a fun experience.

@FreewayBrent

"A narrow 6 lanes, and congestion that lasted from about 6 a.m., all the way until as late as 10 p.m. during the weekdays."

Seriously? There was traffic for 16 hours straight on that road? Reminds me of INTERSTATE 95 in Bronx. I live in New Jersey myself and I have to deal with highway traffic all the time. Route 17 not only has problems with traffic congestion, the speed limit is too low for a highway.

@cubsrule2040 I haven't driven myself on US 95 but the last time I was on US 95 was as a passenger as a kid, long before I got my drivers license. But looking at Google Street View I do recall seeing "Speed limit 60" sign near Lewiston, Idaho.

@FreewayBrent I've never been on I-95 in Florida but the section between Washington, DC and Boston is a disaster, especially in the Bronx, New York (there's traffic even on Sundays and during the weekdays there's nothing but trucks, hardly any cars on that road). Also, I've never been anywhere near Miami but I have been to Orlando and Cocoa Beach before.

[FreewayBrent]

@NHRHS2010: Ha, true. I-95 has some very interesting sections, though. My favorite is probably thru Dade County, FL, and thru the DC/Baltimore region.
