That's true.
Huntsville wants its damn Southern Bypass and for the Parkway to be completed.
Birmingham wants I-22 completed, the Northern Bypass, and a solution to the 280 issue.
Montgomery wants the I-85 extension and Montgomery Outer Loop.
Mobile wants a reliever route for the Tunnel and something to be done about the West side by the Airport be it Bypass or something that'll make Airport Blvd. less of a hell and give easier access to the Airport from I-10 and I-65.
The funny thing is that we all blame each other for the reason ALDOT can't get anything done fast. And that's not even factoring in Highway Projects on the table for The Shoals(Patton Island Bridge freeway from the Bridge to Florence Blvd.), Dothan(I-10 spur connector), and the proposed Anniston-Gadsden Freeway connector between I-59 and I-20.
I wish we had more State Senators that had the power that Roger Bedford and Lowell Barron have, only without the scumsucking lack of ethics.
