- The two new signals at the Turnpike seem to be the cause of the major congestion today. Widening after the signals going south will do nothing for the southbound congestion that backs up onto 44 and widening coming north will just allow the congestion to build faster. Will this project actually help at all?


Suspect they're waiting for the Turnpike design completion. Still a few years before that 301 segment starts.

Earlier studies showed widening all the way to 44 and were leaning towards a diverging diamond interchange at the Turnpike.

Lots of detail here:
