The New I-40 (Construction Updates)

Now if only ODOT would build a Texas-style five-level stack at I-40 and I-44...

Those are nearly worthless in ice / snow.

I have read where they have installed a geothermal heat pump heating system on a hand full of northern bridges. I know this is expensive but is this anything we would ever consider doing?

The heat pump or the system; it looks like they set up the kilpatrick & lakeshore parkway may be that eventually use the texas style layers, but I doubt any of the interchanges in the city have the space to be converted.

It would be ridiculously expensive to alter the layout for something that only is a minor slowdown for a mile in any direction of it, plus it is not even the biggest problem on i44 withing 4 miles in either direction. It is not happening till i40 west and i44 south are at least 4 lanes each.
