Welcome to the Roadscapes Wednesday segment! Each week here on Geek Alabama, Roadscapes Wednesday will feature roads and infrastructure related topics. Geek Alabama Editor / Publisher Nathan Young is often called the “road geek” for a good reason, Nathan loves roads and loves talking about roads!
The US Interstate System has plenty of extremely important routes, but we know this comes with the other side of things, useless interstates. See, the way the interstate system was designed and built came with so much corruption, where every city or state wanted as many routes as possible to be built with federal dollars, and some states had more pull than others, so what came from this is some pretty awful routes that end up getting used by nobody. I mean, did there really need to be 2 routes through Wheeling, West Virginia? Or a spur route to Dyersburg, Tennessee? What I’m saying is there are some highways out there that are underused, so today we’re going to go state by state to check out the least used interstates in each states and if they have a story behind them.
