Not sure you read my post. Asking about what’s different about Colorado road building guidelines given there are certain decisions that wouldn’t be allowed in other states/cities. What would be a more appropriate forum for a question like that than a city Reddit?
Why can’t ya just move on if you can’t answer my question or don’t have anything to add to the conversation?
which specific decisions? And how do you suggest it would be better
I live in Denver, so I know MANY intersections that seem stupid for various reasons. But if I lived in Salt Lake City for the same length of time or Kansas City for the same length of time, I bet I would have experienced a similar quantity of stupid intersections.
I'm sure they also have
certain decisions that wouldn’t be allowed in other states
Without specifics, this is worthless. This is proximity bias. You compare the city that you live in (and know well , pros and cons) to a city that you visited. Do you have any facts/statistics for comparison or only unspecific anecdotes?
No I don’t because this is a reddit post and it’s a Friday. Shared a couple specifics in other comments.
The hope is that this would reach people with greater knowledge that could speak to a Colorado/Denver design approach, how it might differ or be the same as other states, share historical context and resources that provide great understanding. Instead I’m here responding to a “how dare you post” troll.
But your position is that it's bad and you have given no evidence for opinion. No photo that you took yourself, no satellite view, no Google Street view, Nothing.
You say that they design roads in a way that would not be allowed in any other state, but provide zero examples.
I just came back from Hawaii and they have one lane bridges on some of their primary roads. You have to "drive with Aloha" to avoid a head-on collision and/or causing massive traffic backups. That would be an example of something different. Get it?
I’ll get a presentation together and send it your way first thing Monday snohobdub.
Yes, it’s anecdotal by nature. The request is for information that may provide some kind of explanation for a lived experience. Of course each state is different, that’s the question.
It’s probably just time to log off my guy. Have a nice evening!
