I already disproved this to you. Mount Pleasant is an obvious example.

No you didnt disprove anything but thanks for trying. Ask any contractor what impact a highway dumping out into the suburbs has on his plans to build a development. It's a no brainer every time.

No need to argue whether a highway encourages growth. Johns Island is growing with development non stop. There, is no arguing this, if you don't like growth, and like the country, you can just move to the rural parts of Johns Island, outside the Urban growth boundary.

That sounds just like when people say more lanes equal more traffic. Both are not true

You mean the contractors busy building on John's Island? Yea I don't see a lack of an interstate slowing them down much at all. But hey, believe what you want... time will determine how right or wrong you are. Arguing on the internet doesn't seem to change it.

Indeed but Cane Bay is rather large already with a single 2 land road there.
