Next year they plan to turn the 192nd & Dodge interchange into a diverging diamond interchange (DDI).

Next year already? That's great. I hope they don't stop paving north until they hit Maple Street...

It's only to N HWS Cleveland Blvd by the women's hospital.

Oh wonderful. That’s my mom’s interchange this’ll confuse the ßhit out of her.. I already had to fix her tire from jumping the median on 72nd last year…..

They seem confusing, but having encountered one for the first and only time, in practice, it's straight forward. I honestly didn't realize what was going on until I was on the other side.

It's a bit concerning for the first time when you are on the wrong side of the road and can see oncoming traffic directly in front of you, albeit a couple blocks away. But after it was implemented on the NW 48th St. exit on I80 in Lincoln and using it many times it's not so bad. Granted, that's not exactly a high traffic interchange though. At any rate, here it comes!

Some people think they’re annoying. I personally think they’re cool. Then again I’m a bit of a highway geek.

They need one of these on Cornhusker and Hwy 75, it’s been talked about but it sorely needed. Just the other day it took over 5 minutes to move from the west of the Hwy just to get on Hwy 75 northbound and it was 7pm on a wed night.

Moved the discussion from the Avenue One thread about this interchange.

Thanks, I was going to mention this earlier…

Am I not remembering some of the diverging diamond interchanges I’ve been on in the past or does this one at 192nd St. have more “no turn on Red” signs then your typical diverging diamond interchange?

I looked at Google Street View for the one in Lincoln and it doesn't have any. But it only has a single lane entering/exiting. I'm guessing the multiple lanes may be impacting that.

Seems like it would lower its efficiency?

Any clue what we're waiting for here? All the cones actually make it more confusing.

I just drove through yesterday and was wondering the same. It's looked basically done for a bit now. My guess is there is a spot or two that still has the cement curing. That normally takes around 28 days.
