Some regions of the US are suffering through extreme drought. Other regions are experiencing dangerous flooding. It should be an easy infrastructure project to construct pipelines to carry water along the Interstate Highway System. Not on every length, just where appropriate - routes close to flooding reservoirs and to near-empty reservoirs.
The medians and rights of way of the Interstate highways are already established and are the perfect places to put pipelines. The pipelines can run around-the-clock, making an important contribution to getting water where it needs to go.
It is a no-brainer. And don't worry about spills - it's only water.
