So we went to Clermont today, Monday. rt 27 South to rt50 East. No turnpike. Took just over an hour with traffic on 27 & 50.
BUT we decided to take the pike back to TV about 3pm. Right about rt 470, the huge backup started on the eastbound pike. We saw a lot of construction work on the breakdown lane and off the road. They may have had the right travel lane shut down, to only one lane. Huge backup… almost all the way to the Rest Center… again. Yikes

Our group played Southern Oaks Friday and the traffic was backed up as far as we could see for the entire time we were playing. Must have been ugly.
