than the one at Florida and S. Foster in terms of how beat up it is?

Hole E shite it would make the sturdiest off road rig/rock crawler driver think twice about crossing.

If there’s one worse I’d be stunned.

Until they finally fixed it, somewhat, if you ever crossed Florida from Oneal to get on the Thruway, while doing the speed limit, you would go airborne, or possibly disengage your front axel.

Try one block over at S. Foster and North Blvd.

well, according to DOTD, repaving bluebonnet is somehow a higher priority

Highland and Lee is pretty bad. Feels like I’m off-roading when I turn onto Lee

North on Lee, turn right on Highland.

But don’t do it in a sedan.

DOTD is state. Bluebonnet is city/parish.

DOTD has nothing to do with bluebonnet because it isn't a state highway.

The city/parish isn't responsible for Florida Blvd because that is a state highway.

Reminds me of S. Choctaw Extension and Florida. That one was awesome!

Came here to say the same thing. I don’t know if it’s the worst in BR but it’s up there.

Yep. Only 3-4 cars can make the light turning onto Florida because of how rough the road is. Everyone slows way down.

Wasn’t going to as I was going through.

I see you’ve been lucky enough to avoid Scenic Highway
