Again, perhaps I wasn't clear enough--improvements to that corridor were planned when I was a child--as in, there was next to no sprawl in the area, unless you consider the Drive-In Theater and the Gulf station that was on the corner at the time to be sprawl. People have been killed and maimed in accidents at the corner for years--as they were at the York Road crossing at the bottom of the cut--but again, those facts ought to be ignorned so that a square argument can be forced into a round reality and the anti-Flamborough, anti-suburb, anti-car purity of this thread can be maintained. Since the interchange will be controlled-access, REDUCING the ingress/egress points of most businesses in that area, I fail to see how it "serves" these stores--which were planned/built after the highway proposal was finalized.
