Ben Wear and a colleague have run another experiment comparing SH 130 to I-35.
The trip around Austin on SH 130 was 22 minutes faster than the trip straight through town on I-35. This even though I-35 was not particularly congested during their experiment.
Wear averaged 70 mph on SH 130; his colleague, 50 mph.
