Happy new year! Have you seen Road Guy Rob's video on Arizona freeways? It paints a picture of the story of Phoenix's network, how late it is, how it could've just, like, not happened and explains a bit why the rush hour traffic is poor.
Happy New Year indeed. I have not seen that particular video, but I have read a fair amount on the history of Phoenix's system. Thanks for the comment.
I can't help but come back to it every once in a while because of the intense vibe I get from the recording and the first music, despite the slowdowns and necessary timeskip. Phoenix is US freeways at their best when it comes to constant wow factors. Yes, I said that. Texas is just wow from time to time with the big interchanges, because everything else is the same!
"Two members of the local MENSA chapter can be seen racing in the HOV lane to the left" cracked me up 😂 Nice work on the video, Phoenix freeways are very impressive as always. Hopefully I can drive them one day.
I enjoy your videos! Always have been amazed at the overall quality you present every time. Phoenix traffic is pretty awful but at least they are trying to address the problem with Loop 202 and Loop 303. Even more remarkable is that the people of AZ have been paying for most of the new freeway construction on their own so the fact they can get what they have without the advantage of extra federal dollars (since they don't have interstate highway beltways) is pretty remarkable. The big issue they continue to have is that the population growth the Phoenix area is experiencing keeps outpacing the freeway construction.
Also, forgot to mention, this is one of the three state loops around Phoenix. 202 and 303 are the other ones. This reminds me of multiplying by these: 101 × 2 or 3 as second and third.
Please make another video with the music Chicane - Red Skies again. I've watched your video of Calgary about 20 times thanks to it perfectly matching your personality of being a roadgeek and with you being on Highway 2 & 202. Regardless I love your video. Phoenix got a really accurate, modern, and a underrated freeway network. And btw, Happy New Years fellas. Fuck 2020 *sorry if any kids are here*
Phoenix is the city i've been to with the worst rush hour traffic!!! It's worse than Atlanta, and Chicago also if you go to Phoenix in March add the snowbirds and tourists in the mix and boom traffic is more crazy both the locals and tourists don't know how to drive!!!
Love it! I was just in Phoenix 2 days ago fantastic freeway system!
Phoenix is definitely a great city to go for a cruise through.
@@AsphaltPlanet1 Happy New Year! You have a video from Pima Freeway. Check that out, This was taken at 7:15PM on a Tuesday.
Agree
Happy New Year, and welcome to Phoenix, Arizona!
Welcome to Phoenix indeed
Will be headed down there in couple weeks. Just wanted to get a feel for Phx freeway driving. Only freeway I drove was I-15 here in St George, UT.
Happy new year!

I agree with you. I think Phoenix has a more consistently well designed freeway network than Texas’.
*The Coyotes moved to Utah from Phoenix in 2024. 😢
I was hoping you would hop on the loop 303 and take it north back to I-17. 😊

I was hoping that people would find that funny. Happy new year.
@@AsphaltPlanet1 Did you go to Michigan in 2020?

Thanks for the comment. I'm sure the Phoenix freeway network will continue to grow in the future.
This is not a video from 2020! The loop 101 looks way better! More lanes and more bridges are there.
That state loop forms a semi beltway around the state capital. That's something. The design looks superior and well looking.
thanks for the comment.

Great video! Love how modern the freeways are in Phoenix. How was the weather there in March?
Phoenix is awesome in March. Hot, but not too hot that it's no longer enjoyable to be outside.
Always like videos from the desert southwest. As always, nice work. Also, loved the MENSA comment. ;-)
Thanks much for the comment. I dig driving through the Southwest. They have some great freeways there.
@@AsphaltPlanet1 Yes Dont Drive Interstate 10 Or 17 Tho
