    It's taken MDOT long enough to rebuild I-75 through Detroit, and it looks like they're getting close. The one new flyover is for the Gordie Howe Bridge to Canada, which should be done in about (or aboot) a year.

      After the great white flight around 1968, the building started like crazy, north of Detroit. The farther out, the bigger the houses. I grew up off of 15 mile and there, the houses were 1000 to 1800 sq ft. Go about 10 miles north and they're $1 million plus with 2500-5000 sq ft and beyond.

    When did they widen out I-75 south of Downtown Detroit and in Oakland County?
    Last time I seen street views of I-75 in those parts, it was 6 lanes not 8 lanes.

      They have been reconstructing I-75 from Square Lake Rd to 8 Mile Rd for a few years now. Construction is just wrapping up. It included reconstructing several interchanges, including rebuilding the interchanges at Big Beaver Rd, 14 Mile Rd, and 12 Mile Rd into diverging diamond interchanges, rebuilding the interchange at Square Lake Rd from a Y interchange with left-hand exits and merges to a semi-directional T, and also the elimination of the weave between I-696 and 11 Mile Rd. The final part of the project is converting the left lane into an HOV lane, which appears to have just finished.
      Been a long time coming

    Amazing how lackluster and boring the northside of Detroits suburbs are off the interstate. It’s different then a lot of places no tall signs for gas stations and restaurants no like major travel center type gas stations or trucks stops period you drive like over 100 miles through very to pretty densely populated area with no truck stops from the Detroitier flying j to loves TA in birch run and most exits just don’t really have much of anything on them or tell you much as to what’s on them just very different feel then 90 percent of 75 from Florida to Michigan or really any interstate

    • @burtlewand5915
      @burtlewand5915 Рік тому +4

      Reading this as someone from this area, it truly made me laugh. I totally agree with you, there are not many signs, but this is Oakland county. For one thing, once you get off the freeway, the built-up area still goes on for tens of miles, it is not like there are just one or two businesses to list. Additionally, when you get to 16 mile/Big Beaver Rd on 75, 8 miles north of Detroit, that is the exit for nice city with a luxury mall that has the only Nieman Marcus location in Michigan. This county is the center of the white-collar population in metro Detroit, the wealthiest county in Michigan, and not too far down the list as far as being one of the wealthiest in the country. This are why you don't see them. But now, I have to tell you the reason I sincerely laughed. As someone from this area, when I get to part of the freeway with those signs like you're talking about, I assume there is nothing going on there EXCEPT those businesses. I know it is not, but to me, that is the sign of being in some backwater area. If you told people we were missing that on the highway, they would give a look of shock. We are NOT a backwater.
