Enough is enough. Nothing is accessible between 1-7 PM. No left-turn lanes anywhere. It's just a massive cluster frick in this city with all of these shitty out-dated roads. I love this place and love to see it grow but the infrastructure is just so poor. I know, "tell us something we don't know." frick off. This city needs gentrification out of the arse, too.

Yeah I'm moving back to Texas in 2 years. Where the State actually puts money into improving roads.

Getting around town is ridiculous. I can't wait to get the hell out of here TBH.

if I had to pick one thing that pisses me off to no end about BR roads, its the fact that DOTD puts fricking red lights every block. I know, I know, the cross streets and the intersections. But my God, its like they try to make sure the driver goes only 100' and then he has to stop. I've never seen a city with more impediments to the free flow of traffic.



Second to that is the deplorable condition of the roads themselves. I don't think BR/LA ever does maintenance on a road unless its to put a coal patch that is more like a speed bump. Good thing you can only go 100' before the next signal, or you might get up to 40 MPH while youre bouncing over the streets.

The worse part about them is it seems that none of them are in sync. You sit at a red light an 50' in front of you its green. Yours turns green, the next one turns red.

You're better off getting around BR traffic on a bike during rush hour.

anywhere. they've got Airline Hwy so screwed up its not even funny. You used to be able to go from Industriplex to P'ville with maybe two stops. Now... its start/stop from the Old bridge to I10.
