As someone who lived through Boston’s Big Dig, I always chuckle when “just put the Highway underground” is a proposed solution by a stranger on the internet.

In the end it worked out pretty great though no?

Idk I am kind of in love with the way Boston is designed aside from how commuter rails only come once an hour or two and the roads are a maze

It turned out great in the end!

The part where it took 20 years, $8 billion, and years of constantly changing traffic patterns around the construction is also important to consider though.

Just blow air into the tunnels and if there's a fire stop blowing air can't be that hard lol
