About 12 years ago, I was on a bus going from the Port of Miami to Fort Lauderdale International Airport, and we used the express lanes across the Golden Glades Interchange, and yes, it's very impressive from that perspective.

Jason Williams you can see how I-10 looks a little like I-95 in SoCal in Freewayjim's videos. Also I-10 in Phoenix is really built up in with the urban sprawl with the scenery and traffic. In Houston you have the Katy Freeway. Urban freeways are built up differently in different states. That is how they built I-95 as an urban freeway in Florida. There is also much more traffic on other days I. South Florida on I-95. I drove on that stretch on a Wednesday. A lot of traffic on that freeway.

@swinde7 жыл бұрын
Kaydrah ... That entire drive IS FLAT. Those 'rolling hills" are just the freeway curving left and right and passing over and under streets along the way. If you travel up US 1 north of West Palm Beach there are a few hills which are likely old "dunes" formed by the ocean thousands of years ago. The tallest are 35-40 feet above sea level. The level land is from about 12 -15 feet above sea level.
@zachmatt37 жыл бұрын
Yes, really flat. But if you go to the west and northwest sides of Orlando, there's some surprisingly hilly terrrain, especially between Orlando and Leesburg. But not in the Miami metro area.

As others have said, Miami is flat, so those little hills are the expressway going up and down streets. Orlando's got a few hilly parts, but for the most part, Florida has few hills, although sometimes in Downtown areas and in malls, they'll make artificial hills by digging up sand and making hills.
