TRAFFIC for MILES
I wanted to go into town tonight for supper but DH did not. I am so glad that he wanted to eat in. I cannot believe the road patterns around here. Anyway, the driver looses control of the flat bed truck he is driving and it overturns on the on ramp to US421. Lumber is every where. Not only is the ramp blocked, but 74-76 going into town is blocked, 421 out of town traffic is blocked, 74-76 going out of town is blocked and the news said several streets in town were also blocked. I know this would include Dawson (goes into town) and Wooster (leaves town). Folks this is for several hours.
Now with only two ways into town and both of those blocked, what happens if there is a medical emergency on my side of the river. Would patient be transported to the hospital 30 miles away or depending on the emergency to the one 50 miles away. Hope that never happens.
The brains behind this road construction several years ago apparently were not thinking. Traffic is always slow moving from 7-9 in the am and 4:30 to 6 in the pm.
