The Best of Road Signs

[PColumbus73]

Out of the few times I have driven Heavy Traffic Way, there hasn't been that much traffic honestly...

But were the few vehicles you saw sufficiently weighty?

Or maybe it's the road that leads you to where the heavy traffic actually is.

Is the road used to transport dairy products?

Is Heavy Trafficway a thoroughfare or a descriptive term?

And this is the first reference to "trafficway" I've ever seen outside of Missouri or the Kansas City KS/MO metro area.

No, you misunderstand.  The actual street name is [Heavy Traffic Way].

So, what's the story behind that street name?
