Message: [QUOTE="FrancoPizza, post: 2949089, member: 5195"] Except if you’re coming from the south and want to head to western NY destinations it makes no sense to loop in the opposite direction just to get on the thruway. Not having a western bypass becomes a huge issue. It services one side of the metro area and screws another. Commuters who feel inconvenienced will flip the bird at 481 and go straight through the city anyway since the commute times cancel each other out! [B]If anything it will probably be [I]faster[/I] to avoid 481 if I just need to get through a few stoplights to reach 690->90.[/B] What a cluster that will be. Why not reroute 81 onto an upgraded west street loop? There are no historic buildings along this corridor. Has that even been considered? [/QUOTE]
