The interstate highway system cut neighborhoods in half and let people drive right through them. it didn't bring people to them -- better local infrastructure would do that and that's been systematically underfunded for decades.
- bin0 7y agoI get where you're coming from, but I'm not sure this was malicious. First, you could have driven around, which is probably what people did. More importantly, this happened all over with the interstate system; old railroad towns had their last gasp and newer highway towns replaced them. Finally, interstate is federal, so blame them if any one.
