Follows I-280 (Sinclair, Junipero Serra, Foran, Southern Embarcadero freeways) northbound, clinching all the way from US-101 San Jose to King Street in Downtown San Francisco.
Oh man you didn't take the ramp to Sixth Street! That was what I thought to be the most spectacular ending for I-280 in my opinion, and even way better at night! Still, this was a pretty good capture of the freeway. :)
I’d get off on Paige Mill road. And if I wanted to go to Frisco, I always avoided 101 with 280. Such a beautiful freeway! You just gotta watch out for the CHP. A lot of people go way over 100 MPH, and they hide on the on-ramps
Thank you Justin for watching! I feel bad that your video had gloomy weather, but hey as you said it presented a nice touch. I think that the marine layer added something special to today :)
The fastest I ever went in my Eclipse was on this freeway. 135. I was going all out, hit redline, then slowed down… LOL fastest I’ve ever driven. It was a GS-T model (like fast and furious)
Great video but I do have a couple of corrections... * At 5:24, you show a concurrency of I-280 and Route 35 starting at Edgewood Rd but that concurrency doesn't start until the Bunker Hill Rd interchange some 5 miles further north. * At 5:36, that is not a Runaway Truck Ramp. It is, in fact a closed Vista Point.
Oh dang thanks dude! Idek where the CA-35 figure came from right there, looking back, and I figured it was a truck ramp as it wasn't signed and in the middle of the mountains. I can't believe you're the first person in a year to catch... or tell me anyway... these errors.
No problem. I'm quite familiar with I-280 so alot of this stuff is stuck in my head. I just watched the video again and noticed one more error. I-280 never connected to I-80 at the Bay Bridge. It was supposed to but was never built. The only freeways demolished as a result of the '89 quake were CA-480 and the double-deck portion of US 101.
Did you know that Wolfe Road at the I-280 got reconstructed?! Go check it out on Google Maps if you don’t believe me. (Construction is unfinished, might finish in 2022)
