That said, a lot of these deck parks take advantage of redundant freeways. It's not safe to allow trucks carrying hazmat under a deck park or tunnel, so you have to provide an alternate route. If another freeway is not available, that means surface streets. I doubt Oak Parkers want hazmat trucks rolling past their homes...

Klyde Warren Park in Dallas, Hance Park/I-10 in Phoenix, I-696 outside Detroit, etc all ban hazmat. So do all mountain and underwater tunnels. Not sure how Hubbard's Cave is allowed, but IDOT has literally zero restrictions on hazmat in Illinois, except a few around Rockford.

They capped 93 in Boston. Trucks can always use 294 as a bypass
