But presumably the "park" in "parkway" doesn't imply a constant traffic
holdup

[One of my favorite USA-isms has always been how y'all park on the
driveway, and drive on the parkway]

And how they have "Interstate" Highways in Hawaii and Alaska.

There are plenty of other "Intrastate Interstates"

Then there are airports such as "Gary/Chicago International" which as
well as having no scheduled flights at all currently, never did have any
customs and immigration facilities.

I expect we could find some trains which are actually buses (all the
time, not just when disrupted) - we have them in UK too.
