We just drove 287 from Amarillo to past Dallas (16 Sept.). The worst part for stop and go was the area above Dallas. It wasn't far enough from the city to avoid all the frickin signals and "in town" traffic. Frankly the road between the cities was pretty good. We maintained a steady 65 almost all the way and the towns had a fair distance between them. There is some construction but it wasn't much of a delay at all for us. Over all it was a tiny bit slower than say an interstate but not that much. Fairly low traffic load and nice scenery. The biggest complaint we had was the lack of rest stops as it's mostly "picnic stops" along the route if you need a rest room.
