Comment from sannkc
To me, there are several reasons against a motorway tag for Lake Shore Drive. The road is not built to motorway standards (narrower lanes, comparatively sharp curves, few/no shoulders, low speed limits of 35/45 mph). The state of Illinois classifies it as a principal arterial, not as a freeway or interstate. Also, the Lake Michigan and Chicago Lakefront Protection Ordinance, enacted by the city of Chicago in 1973, specifically prohibits Lake Shore Drive from being upgraded to freeway/motorway standards. If anyone has reasons to the contrary, aside from its surface resemblance to a motorway in aerial imagery, I'm happy to discuss further.
