[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's no reason to even go into PA at all if you're driving from here to NJ/NY.  You take 95 up to DE then get on the NJT or Garden State Parkway by taking the DE Memorial Bridge near Christiana Mall in DE.  The 95 bridge won't affect anyone going to NY at all..[/quote]

This is idiotic.  It's correct that 95 through Philly is not the most direct route to NY.  But there are huge swaths of NJ where you *would* take 95 through Philly.  Before this, it's 50/50 whether you'd take it going to Princeton.  And there is definitely going to be a spillover effect onto the Turnpike.  [/quote]

It's not idiotic. I-95 in PA is a local and regional artery. Its closure will be a disruption in and around Philly for sure, but it's not going to impact long-distance traffic that much because the NJT has been the "through route" for decades.[/quote]

PP is delusional. Not much changed her for the majority of eastern corridor traffic.[/quote]
