And I thought they couldn't do anything to make Memorial even more annoying than it already is.

Will this be the first time a US highway ends at a Death Diamond?

I don't know what US highway ends there, but it certainly isn't US 64.

A SPUI might work well here. Or failing that, maybe a loop ramp from WB OK-364 to southbound Memorial (carrying the route of US-64). Bugo would know the traffic flows in the area better than I, though. My one time using Memorial, I almost got in a wreck, so I don't have much higher of an opinion of it than he does.

US-169 ends at that interchange (US-64 exits and OK-364 continues west on the mainline). If it's not the first US route to end at a DDI, it's probably the first to end at one from the freeway side.

I guess I never noticed because it would just make a lot more sense for it to end at the Creek Turnpike.
