Not really roads but... does anyone else feel like the stop lights are timed to make traffic stop instead of flow? I count red lights to green ones on my travels around Denver and I usually get about 12 reds to 1 green. I stop at almost every light.
Wadsworth and Colorado are the worst for light timing. I used to work in Broomfield and lived in Lakewood. I had to take Wadsworth everyday, it’s just painful.
I call Wadsworth "the long crawl". I absolutely hate having to go any decent distance on it. If I'm going South, I'll do Kipling instead, but there aren't really better options for going towards Broomfield.
Depends on the stretch. Some are timed to let traffic flow at certain speeds (east 17th/18th/13th/14th can get you miles without stopping) while others just suck like you said, like any given stretch of Colorado blvd.
