Anyone heard of it?
Apparantly it was built on a stream in Seoul around 1980, and was quite recently demolished on a large-scale project to restore the stream. It seemed to be a very major motorway linking central Seoul with its suburbs. What I wonder is, where did the 168,00 vehicles who used that road go? Traffic doesn't just dissapear, and all the Seoul city council website says is 'we have encountered no large-scale traffic problems due to the demolishment of the expressway'.

The Seoul Metro has expanded by something like 150 miles (at least!) in that time period. All those metro lines are probably able to take some of the traffic off the streets. Maybe the city you're in, Beijing could take a leaf out of the Korean's book. It seems to me Beijing is strangling itself with traffic!
Who would have thought that, 20 years ago?
