Heh. <br /> <br />Since 1988 I have watched that Turnpike go from just two sets of lanes in either direction all the way almost to Exit 12. Changed slowly and with great effort become a 6 laned per side monster extending to about exit 8. <br /> <br />Now they want to reach from 8 to 6. Where will this stop? At the Deleware Memorial Bridge?? <br /> <br />You can have 20 lanes a side on that monster and still jam up traffic everyday. <br /> <br />I personally used it when the company would pick up the tolls otherwise I would run the good old Route 1. (and a few other smaller roads until killjoy Jersey kicked us off) Yes there were about 40 miles worth of stop lights every block but by maintaining 3-4 mph over the posted and keeping the "Yellows" two blocks behind you could breeze thru non stop. <br /> <br />I thought the NJT was king until I visited LA and saw where I-10 meets I-5... whew.
