Work Commute - Average speed

[Detroit Gearbox]

From what I read, mound is supposed to be completely shut down and redone in 2018.

It sure needs it..... along with another lane for volume

.....and a connection between m59 and 22 mile so commuters living north of 30 mile have alternative (without zig-zagging) instead of m53.......

That will likely never happen. The county would have to buy land from River Bend Park to put the road in between M-59 and 22 Mile.

Anything east of 75... It's all fucked up... Soo many spots were they have steel slabs covering potholes and sinkholes...

God forbid........it's interesting how other developments (freeways, stadiums, etc) in major population areas (where people are actually displaced) seem to get completed. Yet, something like this (IMHO, that is long overdue) won't ever happen because of a park.........not arguing with you but simply making an observation.

They could build the added lane in the median instead of towards the shoulder. They would have to figure out how to divert water but I never see the median flood when it rains.

I'm 9.9 miles 15 minutes during the day less if I go in or home in the middle of the night because all the traffic lights are blinking
But... Driving a charter bus I usually get 400 miles added to it

I drive a dedicated run now 365 miles in 9 hours including a lunch break making 14 stops to pick people up and drop off 40.55 mph
