The Hampton I-64 overpass and the major entrance to Forest Park is finally closed, part of the much-discussed Highway 40 renovation. The overpass is scheduled for a partial reopening on Memorial Day 2009. What with the sound of helicopters buzzing overhead and the television news full of breathless on-scene reports, this morning’s commute had the feel of an outtake from an action movie. Call it “Escape from Dogtown.”
The drive was uneventful, naturally. We do expect heavier traffic on our street as drivers seek alternate routes. Yay us!
