What about the closing of 206N near the intersection of Nassau Street? For some reason that was closed last night with no-detour warnings until it was too late. Everyone headed north on 206N into Montgomery was inconvenience having to drive down Nassau Street through the middle of Princeton. Wasted 20 minutes of my life.
We posted a warning on Facebook and Twitter twice last night about the polide down on Route 206.
I didn’t see them unfortunately as I was already on my way home. I guess that construction crew on 206N got a little too zealous with their work. Sigh! I was stuck going through Nassau. Added 20 minutes to my 30 minute commute from Trenton. Sucked!
