re: You know what pisses me off most about the Washington St. Exit?

I've been amazed my whole life that the US Government hasn't stepped in and said "BR and Louisiana you are inept, we are taking over and widening a choke point between two of our most populous states, and emergency evacuation route"

It's an rather astonishing failure on a City, State, and Federal level, that this storyline took so long to address properly.
