Writer's Research Query: Freeway Revolts

[dewline]

I stumbled across something today on Wikipedia that struck me as Interesting...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeway_revolt

Does anyone here have any memories or recommended reading on the subject on or off-line?

If you can provide some pointers to photos of these ramps to nowhere someday, I'd be glad of it.

Here in Ottawa, there seems to be some revival of what I suspect it might have been like in those days of the protests going on re: the Queensway. Partial details, subject to editing, here. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queensway_%28Ottawa%29#Present_controversy)

Can't find any pictures on a regular search... although I've found lots of references to them in editorials about the monorail and viaduct (current subjects of much debate in Seattle). Maybe I'll figure out exactly which interchange they were at (by asking my mom, of course) and then I could find some images.
