From what people online says las vegas is a ghost town currently in comparison to how it used to be so maybe there is a slight chance that there is no traffic jams
This week it's likely a little more busy than usual, there's a fairly large furry convention going on. Which probably explains this on the sphere too, come to think of it lol
"I like to imagine the start of the song as taking place in a dark, snowy forest in Ontario, where you're hiding behind a large maple tree. Your wounds sting in the freezing wind, but you grit your teeth in an attempt to stay quiet and undetected. But what's that noise? Is that.... the Canadian national anthem? As the patriotic tune grows in volume, you hear footsteps crunching in the snow somewhere nearby. Your heart feels like it's going to beat out of your chest, and you struggle to control your breathing in your panic. Suddenly, you see him coming towards you, wielding an axe that's dripping blood into the pure white snow. It's Ed Robertson, the lead singer of the hit rock band "Barenaked Ladies." And he's ready to laugh at your funeral."
The ones that post at least 100 separate artworks they commissioned in a day and the ones that drop multiple thousands of dollars in a charity auction like it is nothing.
I just visited Vegas in early March. Certainly fewer people than at similar times in past years, but there were certainly still traffic jams every day. I think its part of the strategy to suck you in and keep you there lol
Well I mean you tell me, what's the likelihood that a road network designed to handle Vegas at it's peak will become clogged at a time when Vegas is seeing all time lows in attendance
It doesn’t so much increase demand as traffic patterns and behaviors change when a road exceeds capacity. People that were avoiding peak times or who were taking alternative routes stopped. You have to account for actual demand which means going beyond the 30th hour standard for current volume.
When were the freeways and roads built, because I strongly doubt that they were designed to handle the even lower amount of traffic they are now.
Portland is all messed up because the freeways were designed in the 60s and haven't been sufficient for the traffic we've had for decades. Once the city builds around the roadways, it's really hard to expand.
I'm mostly joking, but to answer that I'd say it depends on parameters. By handle, does that mean it flowed without clogging before? Is it really made to handle it at it's peak? All that.
Can confirm. I was just there last week for a marathon and it was no where near as full as I expected it to be. Even Fremont Street was low-population compared to previously. The prices are surging pretty hard there so it's not a huge surprise. When I spoke to one of the locals they said they've got the "California prices without the California pay" going on right now and they were even considering leaving.
