I-96 Closed Nights Starting Aug 12

Post by robc007
I just saw this pop up a few minutes ago. It is outside my editing area. Also, the ramps mentioned in the text are missing from the Waze map. Good opportunity to drive in pave mode.

Have those Latson Road ramps been added yet? Since the closure is in the middle of an exit it shouldn't be too big a deal.

Any idea whether the bridge has been built yet?

edit I'm going to guess no, based on the fact that they're placing beams for it.

Anyway, I've added it as best I could based on the MDOT project flyer. Might not be perfect, but based on the location of the railroad I figure it's pretty accurate. When we get some GPS tracks in up there we can tweak it.

edit again Actually, much better aerial project image on the presentation. I'm going off that. Should be done in a minute or two.
