Date: November 13th, 2019 4:24 PM Author: hilarious 180 hell dingle berry Millar estimated a cost of about $108 billion US to add one additional lane to Interstate 5 in each direction from the Oregon border to the Canadian border.
"$108 billion and we've got another lane of pavement in each direction and it still takes you all day to get from Portland to Vancouver," he told the audience. "Half of that invested in ultra-high speed rail and it's two hours. That's game-changing stuff."

This is extremely laughable. That's the cost of FIFTY brand new state of the art NFL stadiums.
They are adding one lane each direction to a phoenix freeway at a cost of $11M per mile, for example
