I really enjoyed this clip of I-495 compared to the last version you had with all the traffic. This is one of my favorite highways in MA, primarily for nostalgic reasons, and I use it to get to NH and Maine. Thanks for the clip!
Sometimes this year as of 2021, I-495 in Massachusetts will have to change its exit numbers to a mileage based system which is 120 miles in length which will bypass Boston. Other improvements, includes new interchange at milepost 56 off I-495 which is MA-135 which will help the businesses, such as Mobil and Sunoco service stations, several restaurants, several lodgings, hospitals with emergency care, and a few auto dealers, such as Ford which are on MA-135, near the I-495 in Massachusetts. Maine is the other New England State, besides Massachusetts will have its exit numbers to a mileage based system as of today. Most other Northeastern States, such as New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and even Vermont will have to change its exit numbers to a mileage based system in the near future.
Rhode Island is starting to renumber, Connecticut as well but doing it slowly. New York started with I-84 and the Hutchison Parkway but its gunna take them a while to complete
I-495 MA forms a 2nd and outer beltway of Greater Boston while the other beltway (1st and inner) is the entirety of the Yankee Division Hwy (ft. I-95 & MA 128). Fun fact: I-495 MA is the second longest auxillary interstate ever built right after I-476 and even longer than I-295 DE-NJ-PA.

It already happened
Our I-495 in New York is the Long Island Expressway or LIE ranging from Queens to Eastern Long Island near Brooklyn

I-495 is my favorite highway because it’s the last highway to my cousins! I take I-84 I-90 I-290 and last I-495
