So they've got plenty of incentive to get it done quickly.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9554986 Tue, 02 Mar 2004 07:47:17 EDT Re: help prove me correct http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9548685 T1 Rocky : Damn! They did that pretty fast. It took them literally 15 years to finish 75 south of 635 and I would think the High 5 was a lot more complex then that.

Remember those suicide onramps on 75 back then down by Fitzhugh and Knox-Henderson? They were 30 feet long and threw you into 2 lanes of traffic with concrete blocks for shoulders and everyone was going 70 miles per hour. If you had a 4 cylinder then you were road kill. Those were seriously dangerous and I don't know how there werent more wrecks. You would have to gun it and hope that the person coming up the highway was paying attention]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9548685 Mon, 01 Mar 2004 16:31:47 EDT Re: help prove me correct http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,9548191 OmenQ :

Unfortunately I do. :(
2006 can't come soon enough. That road is a mess when it's a good day out. Don't even ask about when it rains.
