The traffic jams yesterday and this morning are epic (worse than during the painting a few years ago) on every bridge approach-- Rte 25 and on Main St, Scenic Highway, and Cranberry Highway in Bourne. Going off-Cape, the rotary is a parking lot as you enter from Rte 28 (like a summer Saturday) much of the day. We should probably advise any WHCMSC visitors coming in from off-Cape for the next 7 weeks to use alternate routes. If you need to get off to reach an airport or appointment, you can try <a href="http://waze.com" target="_blank">waze.com</a> (choose minimize time, not distance--also available as an excellent phone app) or type "traffic near me" into your browser to ensure you don't miss your flight. </div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div></div></div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="m_-7315810001036866242m_2725726126747808188gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Julia M.
