I just had the distinct displeasure of driving on three of Massachusetts' highways, two of which were narrowed down to 1 lane at several points for no apparent reason. OK, at one point there were a bunch of dudes jackhammering, so I'll give them that, but that was the exception - there were about 20 miles of highway on 495 that were whittled down to one lane apparently for the sole purpose of allowing state police officers to park their cruisers in two lanes of traffic without worrying about getting hit.
Way to make my commute longer and in general more shitty Massachusetts, thanks for that.
The roads in Connecticut were smooth, fully open, and much easier to drive on. At least I think they were, I dozed for most of that part of the trip.
