Daily conversation: What is the worst possible answer?

[kphoger]

The junction of Main and Cimarron in Boise City (OK) should be converted to a cloverleaf instead of its current configuration.

[pderocco]

The junction of US-101 and CA-110 should be converted to a simple overpass with no ramps instead of its current configuration.

[LilianaUwU]

The junction of A-73, A-540 and QC 175 should be converted to a five-way stop instead of its current configuration.

[jlam]

The eastern junction of I-70 and I-435 should be converted to a nuclear weapon test site instead of its current configuration.

(No reason)

[kphoger]

The junction of A-73, A-540 and QC 175 should be converted to a five-way stop instead of its current configuration.

Will Chemin St-Louis remain grade-separated?

[kphoger]

simple overpass with no ramps

Bold move! 

[kphoger]

A-73, A-540 and QC 175 ... current configuration

By the way, the more I look at this interchange, the lower my jaw drops.  It's simply fascinating!

[Scott5114]

The junction of I-11 and I-15 should be converted to a casino instead of its current configuration.

(It would be like a toll booth, but with blackjack and hookers.)

[LilianaUwU]

Will Chemin St-Louis remain grade-separated?

Chemin Saint-Louis is its own exit on QC 175, so I didn't count it.

Yeah, it's a mess that would benefit from a reconfiguration that is not a five-way stop.

hookers

I think you mean graphing hooks.

Chemin Saint-Louis is its own exit on QC 175, so I didn't count it.

And also on A-73.  And also kinda sorta A-540.  So stop evading the question.

Fine. Both A-73 and QC 175 will get their own four-way stops at Chemin Saint-Louis.

[PNWRoadgeek]

The junction of I-5, CA 60, US 101, and I-10 should be converted into a Grand Alan shaped bell full of whistles and mechanical devices, also, no interchanges for these highways! All intersections!

The beauty of Nevada is that if you want to pay a graphing hook for an evening of companionship, that's your own business.

[kphoger]

Technically, it's the graphing pimp's business.

Why isn't it our business and why is it theirs though? I'm confused.

[Mapmikey]

At the I-95/395/495 interchange all the flyovers should be replaced with drawbridges to reduce the height of the interchange.

This is very much logical!

All ships must anchor 3 miles off shore and load or unload the cargo there.

[CoreySamson]

Install a massive pinball flipper underneath the water near the bridge. When a ship gets too close, the flipper can flip the ship over away from the bridge.

Require trained dolphins to drive all vehicles over the bridges.

On August 29, 2024, the Maryland Transportation Authority awarded a $73 million contract to Jacuzzi Inc., of Irvine, California, to install jets on the banks of the Patapsco River. When Jacuzzi's patented Ship-Tek™ technology detects a ship has left the shipping channel, the jets will activate to push the ship away from the bridge. Additionally, Baltimore residents will receive a notification on their phones that it is a great time to enjoy the Patapsco River, which will have been heated to a therapeutic 100°F.

Seems to me that this problem fixed itself.
