Chicago: Why Bishop Ford Freeway?

[hobsini2]

And trucks aren't allowed to drive on "boulevards."

Wait, what?  Trucks aren't allowed on Austin Blvd, Sacramento Blvd, Jackson Blvd, Washington Blvd, Augusta Blvd, or Garfield Blvd?

Nope.

I've seen pickups on LSD within the last year, so that sounds like a very lightly enforced law

The semis can use Lake Shore Dr from I-55 going south but then are redirected to the Ryan via 31st and 57th St. They are strictly enforced north of I-55 to Hollywood Blvd.
