The new TZ bridge is under construction just to the north of the old bridge. Not a problem except for rubberneckers. No real problems on the NY Thruway or GSP. Jersey TPK moves along well. I always travel on a Sunday to avoid most of the traffic on I95. I've done the route I-84 to I-81 to I-78 a few times and it's about 90 miles farther. Traffic moves pretty well but you're really going way west to come back way east to connect to I-95 farther south. That route has a whole lot of trucks taking the long way to avoid tolls. A lot of truck drivers are like a lot of car drivers anymore in that they're texting and on their phones. Many of them are all over the road. You really have to watch out for them. I can't tell you how many times I've been passing a truck when they decide to pull out to pass. Unfortunately days of the Knights of the Road are dwindling away. It's never an easy trip but traveling on Sundays and staying on I-95 seems to work best for us.
