| Video Discription | The vast majority of urban freeways were built in the mid-20th century. This means that, structurally, many are reaching the end of their useful life, so state DOTs are looking at rebuilding -- or even rethinking altogether. So what should we do with our deteriorating freeways? Well, in the Twin Cities, they have ideas. ---------- CityNerd is on Nebula, the creator-owned streaming service, ad-free!
