Abandoned highway

Post by piplnr65656 »

So anymore I only post pictures of abandoned stuff if it is something out of the ordinary. Well I found a 5 mile abandoned stretch of highway. They built it but could not finish it due to a lawsuit by some tree huggers over a wetland they wanted to fill in.

I saw these pictures a few years ago:

I thought it looked familiar. I only know it from the pictures, as I've never been to Vermont. I've never been northeast of Pittsburgh.

It would make a good dragstrip.
What's the point of making a point if the point you are trying to make is pointless? Do you get my point?

There's an abandoned stretch of I-44 northeast of Tulsa. I may be able to get some pics in the near future.
