Today the Mayor of
Broakley had to drive to S.F. I left Oakley at 6:30 A.M.
I didn't arrive in S.F. until 10:00 A.M. It took me 3.5 hours to drive 54 miles.
What is going on with our local freeways. Just to get to concord it was about an hour
this morning. Hwy 4 like most mornings was backed up to
Hillcrest. Hwy 242 was
moving at a snails pace. Hwy 24 finally picked up a little, but after coming out of the tunnels
and merging onto Hwy 80 before the Toll booths it went back to 5 mph. Something needs to
be done about our freeways. Personally the Mayor of Broakley feels they need to finish widening Hwy 4 first to alleviate the congestion out here.
What are your thoughts?
