Check the runway layout at BWI if you can find it on the Internet.

It is little better than Milwaukee (MKE: this might be the departure airport on our simulator checkride four days from now-it is listed among US airports with a very high rate of runway incursions).

How much pressure do ATC Supervisors actually put on individual controllers to sustain or increase the flow of traffic at such airports (i.e. Midway MDW, Houston H. HOU, Boston BOS-really hazardous -Cleveland CLE etc)?

We need to give the planners of the new ATL taxiway credit. This new one-way taxiway (similar to Q at DTW) goes between runways 8L and R, and never intersects anything except other taxiways .
