Crosstown Traffic

Crosstown Traffic

Crosstown Traffic is all about getting around in the Triangle. Bad drivers and traffic hassles. Gas taxes and transportation politics. Public transit and other auto alternatives.

The blog is maintained by N&O transportation reporter Bruce Siceloff, whose Road Worrier column is published each Tuesday.

This traffic is two-way. What do you think? Leave a comment or email Bruce with questions, links, tips or gripes.

Are the traffic jams getting worse -- or better?

First it was $4 gas, and later it was the recession. Whatever the reason, Americans have cut back on their driving over the past 18 months.

That should mean fewer traffic backups on the way to work each day.

How does it look through your windshield?  Are you getting to work more quickly these days, and home in time for supper?  Do you think Triangle traffic problems have eased since 2007?

I'd like to get your perspective for a story I'm writing this week.  Please call or e-mail me, and be sure to include your name and daytime contact info.
