A drive I do every day, Essex to Gloucester along route 133 and 128; through Essex and in to Gloucester, the road is quiet, tree-lined, and quite pretty:
But route 128 is very different, two lanes each way and currently busy & backed up at commuter time, due to the bridge work; and over the bridge, a single narrow (by American standards) lane instead of two:
There’s some hope though … the bridge work was promised to cease for summer, so as not to inconvenience tourists (doesn’t matter about us locals, of course!), and it looks like they’re about to give us two (narrow) lanes – there’s very little equipment left now.
