Route 66, once America's most famous highway carrying dust bowl migrants, vacationers, and truckers from Chicago to Los Angeles, was not destroyed by a single disaster but was slowly bypassed mile by mile by Interstate 40 and other faster highways, which diverted traffic without moving the roadside businesses, leading to its official decommissioning in 1985 while leaving behind empty roadside buildings that still feel inhabited by traffic that never arrives.

Route 66 Did Not Die. Interstate 40 Strangled It Slowly本站添加:
This empty road was once one of America's most famous promises.
>> Route 66 carried dust bowl migrants, vacation traffic, truckers, and neon era tourism from Chicago toward Lowe's Angels. Then Interstate 40 and other faster highways did what ruins rarely show clearly. They moved the customers without moving the buildings. In 1985, Route 66 was officially decommissioned.
Many towns were not destroyed by one disaster. They were bypassed mile by mile.
>> That is why the road still feels inhabited by traffic that never arrives.
