"Noisy, busy and some sketchy parts"

Roosevelt boulevard also known as route one is the alternative to taking i-95 when trying to get either to do downtown philadelphia or to north east philadelphia. Route one eventually turns to I-76 when going south and it does turn into a highway once it crosses into Bucks county. But while in philadelphia it does have some sketchy neighborhoods. Roosevelt blvd is a key road that many people take all day long as an alternative to the highways. There are plenty of shops, malls and restaurants that are available on either sides of the road.

"A 12 Lane Monolith in Philadelphia"

E. Roosevelt Blvd, in Philadelphia is part of the Northeast section of the city. It is THE major highway through Northest section, and is used by many people to reach the Bucks County line.

E. Roosevelt Blvd. is 12 lanes of major traffic. It can be very confusing to someone from out of town. The outermost lanes are allowed to have traffic at all time, but you can also park your car in the lane. There is no parking during morning and evening rush hours though.

Each side of the blvd. is split into a middle 3 lane section and an outer 3 lane section. If you want to make a left hand turn, and you are in the outer lanes, you have to wait for a "crossover" which is a cut through the median strip. There are no signs that let you know you are entering a busy 3 lane section and there is no seperate lane to enter into.

The shopping and restraunts are worth the hazardous drive though.
