Re: Traffic

[Kevin Vahey <kvahey@megsinet.net>]

My big bugaboo is how BZ, SmartRoutes and others will sometime slip up and
say 93 SOUTH ( which can be either the expressway OR coming in from the
north)

SOLUTION  rename the expressway 393 or 595 (every other city can do that)  I
seem to recall the "inner belt" would have been 695 had it been built.

Compared to Philadelphia and Detroit however, our traffic reports on radio
are lacking..

Of course I have spent a lifetime trying to figure out how US3 becomes SR3
at the Longfellow Bridge.
