[edit] About the Exit Lists
About the blue clean up tag it is too hard for us to fix even with an account. The junctions closed needs to be highlight with pale yellow color because that's the standar for intersections temporairly closed. The rest area can be color light blue instead of dark blue, and why does those text have to be green words for. Whoever made this exit lists needs to manage a way to fix it. I can only do it up to here.Freewayguy 01:30, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] From Broadway Curve article
The Broadway Curve[1] is the reorientation of Interstate 10 in Tempe, Arizona, United States. For westbound travelers towards Downtown Phoenix and Los Angeles, I-10 reorients itself from a northbound to westbound direction, and eastbound travelers to Chandler and Tucson see an eastbound to southbound reorientation of the interstate. This section of Interstate 10 was first built in 1968[2], and again reconstructed in 1988, 1997, and 2000.[3] As of a 2006 estimate, the curve carries an average of 294,000 vehicles per day.[4] This number is predicted to increase by over 150,000 to approximately 450,000 by the year 2025.[5]
Interstate 10's interchange with SR 143 (Hohokam Expressway) occurs within the Broadway Curve.
This section of the Maricopa Freeway (Interstate 10) is currently twelve lanes wide; one of the widest sections of freeway in the valley. A study is underway to determine whether widening the Broadway Curve to double its current width to twenty-four lanes is feasible. The study should be complete in 2010, when a decision will be made.[6]
