This morning, the right turn lane for 331 was backed up--with cars not moving--for 3/4's of a mile on 98 Westbound.....(!) Driving thru the 331 and 98 intersection (finally) I noticed 331 was backed up to at least Chat Holley (if not to the bridge, or Freeport, or I-10, or......)
Is this a typical Saturday Tourista Exodus, or was there an accident? If just typical summer "big week" traffic, where does the jam end--does to go all the way to I-10, or where?
(This doesn't give me any reassurances regarding "hurricane evacuation" during the season when everyone is supposed to leave in a quickly and orderly(?) fashion. I have images of Mad Max running thru my mind.........)
Thoughts?
