However, trusting just the roadway sign can be bad too. They sometimes don't get updated as they should. Case in point, NYCDOT knew the road would be closed, why not post the warning earlier in the day. Getting on the BQE at say 2p.m. with no delays and seeing "TRAFFIC MOVING WELL" is nice but "ROAD CLOSED TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT" at least lets you plan ahead. On the radio traffic reports, most times when a road closure is pending, they will say so about an hour before the closure.Getting on and thinking you have time to beat the closure can be risky too. One lane could be closed already and there goes the thought I have 45 minutes to make it and it only takes 20. |
