Here's the experience I have every Saturday, when I drive my daughter from Cooper neighborhood to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts:
I drive west on the one-way 26th street from Hiawatha to 3rd Ave. If I drive at 28 MPH I rarely have to stop (usually at Portland). I return east on the one-way 28th street from Nicollet to Hiawatha. At 28 MPH I likewise rarely have to stop (usually once at Chicago). The amount of time I spend crossing the city on the one-way 26th and 28th streets is EQUAL to the amount of time it takes me to drive the three blocks south on bidirectional Nicollet Ave. to get from MIA to 28th St. Bob Alberti, CISSP, President Sanction, Inc.
