Add skiers heading north on a winter Friday night, and those heading to Newport and Cape Cod on a summer Friday night, makes for a traffic disaster.

Throw in one fender bender, or a little construction, and traffic comes to a halt.

Whoever came up with the New England phrase, "You can't get there from here" was referring to this area.

The traffic engineer who designed this junction back in the 1950's should be shot.
Move to DC/N VA, you'll have it so much better...... (sarc).
