Driving over this is an absolute non-issue. Now walking, you can feel it move beneath your feet.

I285/I85 junction in Northeast Atlanta is a bit unnerving on some of the high overpasses.

The Marquette interchange in Milwaukee is around 120 feet high. You know you're up there going over it.

Check out the Pregerson Interchange in Watts at the junction of I-105 and I-110. One of the flyovers is over 130' tall.

I'm not afraid of heights, but when traffic was moving slowly or stopped during heavy traffic, I used to worry about there being an earthquake while I was sitting on the top of that fricker. I wasn't to excited about being under it either!

Don't think that one is more than the 117ft of the High 5 though.

Psh. The new bridge is 175 feet from the bottom of the structure to the water when the water's at it's mean high. It's even farther from the road deck to the water or when the water is low.

Pussies.
