Northern Bypass construction?

[AU HSV]

looks like the long teased Southern Bypass on the left, which won't be built.
Keep in mind all of these projects are at least 20 years behind schedule, some arent even on the list (overpasses at Moores Mill/US 72). These other projects wouldn't even be happening if the city hadn't pushed and raised taxes.
Great plan aldot..hold cities hostage, prevent economic growth and force the citizens to pay for it if they want it bad enough.

For anyone else who didn't know what it all looked like.

Looks kind of like Montgomery's setup with the Boulevard's, except this will be limited access and above grade? Cool. Hopefully it gets built and won't take 40 years.

Yeah, cause I blurred it. You don't need to see that stuff.

That's weatherly's extension going to meet the bypass that doesn't exist.

Edited to add: Ah, I didn't realize there was another page of people figuring that out.
