EB delays reached 154 minutes Monday night during roadwork operations
Monday's travel was initially impacted by 30-39 mph wind warnings and heavy fog until 2:50 AM. Significant afternoon congestion began at 3:27 PM with eastbound backups stretching three miles to Exit 29B, exacerbated by a disabled vehicle that doubled travel times. The day's most severe impact occurred during late-night roadwork as eastbound travel times peaked at 154 minutes around 10:00 PM while traffic was restricted to a single lane on the westbound span.
