The most pointless highway in Indiana that I can think of is the Sam Jones Expressway on the southwest side of Indianapolis. It's a 1.8 mile divided, 4-lane, limited access highway. It used to serve a purpose. It used to connect I-70 with the Indianapolis International Airport. But a few years ago, Indy built a new terminal with direct access off of I-70 practically making the Sam Jones Expressway obsolete. Because of becoming obsolete, the interchange with I-465 right before the old airport terminal has been redone with stoplights along the expressway.
Naturally, for Seattle is flawless, as everyone knows.
Bwaaahahahahahahahahahahaha!
I literally laughed out loud when I read that! Trying to say Seattle is flawless is like trying to say Blanche Devereaux (Golden Girls) wasn't a sex crazed ****. Thanks for the good laugh!
Well, Arizona, its a wonder why we picked it off from Mexico in the First place, it has no natural resources, not obviously Phoenix is there, but not back then.

I'm just curious what four letter word you wanted to use to refer to Blache Devereaux...
But at the same time no one ever said Seattle was flawless in this thread or anything to that point--all they said was that Seattle doesn't have enough large freeways for one to be considered "pointless" --on the other hand there's sort of a scarcity of freeways through Seattle and ths system is fairly overatxed.
For Seattle, currently its actually HWY 99 (the Alaskan Viaduct). It used to be very vital as people would use that instead of i5 (the parallel freeway) and it has great access into Seattle DT. But now Seattle is in process of getting rid of the viaduct with plans of putting a by-pass tunnel replacement. Its a construction zone (in the southern part), with less lanes and rerouting traffic, causing bad backups. Once the by-pass tunnel is in, there will be no access into Seattle DT except just before and after the tunnel (which means there's already bad traffic coming up in the future).
I am actually dreading the day the existing viaduct is shutdown for good. I sincerely hope the new Alaskan Way surface street will provide the same north/south access between Elliott Ave and Marginal Way.
I absolutely hate how the turned southbound into a single lane at the west Seattle bridge. It may be for a short distance but during peak traffic it really really hurts. Why are they even tearing down that ramp anyway?

Some will argue that the grid-style freeway system in Minneapolis is highly efficient.....I'm one of those people.
