The traffic in Charlotte is insane. Even far outside the city. My dad lives there and over the decades I’ve watched trips that used to take 15-30 minutes take hours.
The problem: no planning before development. They are cutting down forests and putting up housing like mad. Yes, there is constant road construction, but it’s too little too late.
Are the other destinations suffering like this?
- rawgabbit 2y agoFor Texas, the entire state is one big traffic jam. It’s not just the DFW metro area. To go from Frisco to Houston for example, the direct route is to go through downtown Dallas and then interstate 45 to Houston. Instead I take this crazy route of driving south to Dallas, west to Arlington, south to Midlothian where they are building Google data centers, south to Waco, east to College Station, and then to Houston. All this extra driving actually saves me time.
