Horse people in general have issues with roads.  We have video of Horse Eye's thought process while pondering initiating the latest purge of road related articles on Wikipedia.

I think NYSDOT's rural highways tend to be better landscaped than others - but some of those efforts were because of budget cuts to grass cuttings. I can't find the article that supports that, but NYSDOT found a benefit in reducing mowings of its wide right-of-ways in allowing natural grasses and wildflowers to flourish.

Does anybody know anything about the feud between "AAARoads" and "Horse Eye's Back" on Wikipedia? Because "Horse Eye's Back" is tagging a lot of articles as not meeting the General Notability Guidelines, even lists of roads.

What does the third A stand for?

Mountain West / Re: US 93 In Arizona Progress

The design for an interchange was completed four years ago for Pierce Ferry Road

https://azdot.gov/planning/transportation-studies/us-93-pierce-ferry-road-feasibility-study

May have mentioned this before, but quite bizarre.  The idea to build a "half interchange", instead on building the whole thing at once.  Is that what "T1" stands for, a half assed attempt?  Seems stupid to get a contract let again, spend more later, get a contractor out to the remote site again, later, to build the rest of the interchange when they feel like it.  Almost seems as if Pete Rahn has his grimy hands into the design.   At least no skewing or shifting of mainllines appears present.

the Mexico to Canada thing was more of a gimmick to get it built at all. A lot of us have already said on here that it will likely never be built in anyone's lifetimes
