Least traveled interstate ramps/connections

[Flint1979]

What's the AADT on the ramps at exit 2 and 2A on NB I-675? The first one is 5th and 6th Avenues and it leads to a pretty dead part of town for the most part and use to be the downtown exit before the Warren Avenue exit was built about 10 years ago. Exits 3 and 6 will be much higher and exit 1 probably a little busier but not much.

Exit #1 = AADT 272
Exit #2 = AADT 404
Exit #2A = AADT 722
Exit #3 = AADT 7508
Exit #6 = AADT 8833

It sure seems like exit 1 has more traffic than that. What about exit 153 off I-75?

AADT for Exit #1 is quite a bit larger on southbound I-675 than on northbound:  2282.
But, entering traffic from Lapeer/VetsMem onto southbound I-675 is really low:  79.

As for I-75 Exit #153...
NB = 1890
SB = 767

The area around exit 1 is pretty much light industrial along Vets and residential off of the side streets. For SB 675 off Vets its not a movement I take very often myself I live about 7 miles from there and I'm in that area pretty much every day. It'd be a quicker route to get to the Holland and Outer Drive area via I-75's exit 149 though.

Another one I wouldn't think is very busy but it would make sense if it was is I-675 SB to I-75 NB. The reason it could be busier and I use this ramp for this purpose is to get to exit 151 which is M-81 going towards the thumb area.

The M-46 interchange is currently under construction for the next two years so more people might be trying to avoid that interchange using M-81 as well. I have noticed the Michigan State Police patrolling this construction zone too.

I-675 SB to I-75 NB

AADT = 1223

But the reverse is 856.

But the reverse is 856.

There are some pretty low numbers on some of them. Exits 3 and 6 serve busier parts of the city/township as exit 3 leads to M-58 and larger populated areas and exit 6 is the mall area with everything that's usually around a mall area.

I wouldn't think EB Tittabawassee to NB I-675 would be too busy at exit 6.

In Arizona it has to be the ramp from I-10 W/B to I-17 S/B (very long and high flyover ramp that is completely redundant due to the freeway configuration of the area).

Major connection from I-10 from points east such as Albuquerque to I-17 South bound towards Phoenix.

Could theoretically be only 1 lane or a loop, but I wouldn’t imagine it’s an underused connection compared to a ramp such as I-10 East to I-17 South.

I could be wrong though, I don’t have the numbers.

There are faster ways to get from Albuquerque to Phoenix.

I misread the post, I was thinking I-40 and I-17, not I-10 and I-17. I-40 westbound to I-17 southbound has a flyover connection as well, though it's in Flagstaff, not Phoenix. I-10 runs through Phoenix.

But for the Phoenix to Albuquerque connection with I-40 and I-17, arterial routes may shave 5 or 10 minutes off for traffic bound to the central or east side, but the interstate is still the most efficient and likely preferred route for most.
