Took a couple of additional daytrips taking advantage of the continued lighter traffic across the state of Florida this past week. The first drive covered a number of urban state roads throughout Jacksonville and Duval County, while also updating some older coverage of I-95 and I-295. Coupled with photos taken in January and November 2019, finally updated pages covering Interstate 95 south from the Georgia state line to I-295 at [...]

Several major upgrades have been completed in the region and more are currently underway. The Dolphin Expressway is only under construction at the east end, where the elevated roadway leading into the Midtown Interchange with I-95/395 is being rebuilt as part of the overall Interstate 395 [...]
Had planned a roadtrip for New York City and the Upstate for next week, but with the ongoing COVID19 pandemic and associated travel restrictions, curfews, etc, threw that idea out last week. Nonetheless, was already working on revising the New York section of the site, starting with converting all remaining overview pages for Interstate and U.S. Highways still in old html. With those revisions, scan old maps for just about [...]
Went to Orlando over the weekend and realized that we never updated the page for Florida State Road 435 (Kirkman Road) south. The arterial joins I-4 with Universal Orlando, and the interchange joining the freeway with SR 435 was rebuilt as part of the I-4 Ultimate project. Although still not completed, the ramps have already been realigned and left exits from I-4 to SR 435 removed. Posted complete coverage [...]

Happy New Year! Spent part of the holidays going through a few thousand photos covering Illinois Interstates to fill in some page gaps for I-57 and I-80, plus finally make a page for Interstate 180. Interstate 57 north at the Tri State Tollway (I-294) at Markham, Illinois. The first of six ramps at the exchange opened in 2014. 06/20/15 Prior to 2014, Interstate 57 and the [...]
Due to ongoing construction of the new I-74 Mississippi River Bridge, the current mainline of westbound Interstate 74 through the Quad Cities utilizes several ramps and at-grade crossings on both ends of the Iowa-Illinois Memorial Bridge. Iowa-bound traffic utilizes a portion of the new bridge approach to the future eastbound off-ramp to River Drive in Moline. From there motorists connect with River Drive and the adjacent [...]
