    Toledo and Cincy are the worst I seen so far. Though I just started

    Ft Worth is terrible as well

    Memphis just needs to be prayed for, the workers don't even TRY to make the lanes safe. I drove through there today and it was cones just left in the middle of the street, not a care in the world

    It's bad all over the place. Seems like it takes them forever to finish anything too.

    I-35E from Denton to Dallas. Hands down. Been going on for well over a year and the tight lanes and wild ride on uneven road mixed with ultra aggressive drivers has resulted in numerous wrecks and fatalities.

    Its weird you say that. I live in Dallas, and just yesterday I was thinking about how hard it would be to drive there and that it was only the matter of time before I had to

    Toledo really isn't too bad. Every interstate is under construction, yes but the lane moves make sense, and are for the most part easy. No on-ramps with stop signs and very, very short on-ramps. Most of the lane changes are smooth and they made most of the temp lanes wide enough and actually fixed and smoothed out the shoulder before moving the lanes over. Sure there is the I-75 north jumping on 280, then around and back, but hell they even did that right. Shut down the street and stole the overpass to let vehicles do a U-turn over the expressway and only have to slow for the turn, not stop and wait for red lights...
    Compared with places like the MI I-75 south of I-275 that have very narrow lanes, with shoulders not smoothed out so the truck is being thrown all over the very narrow lane royally sucked.
