The NE extension was closed for a big accident. They directed everyone off at the Lehigh Valley exit, making it sound so easy to bypass the accident and come back on at the Quakertown exit...but for one problem, major traffic congestion on Rt 309 AND construction, down to one lane.
Left NY at 3 pm, got stuck in the mess at 6:15, didn't get home until 10:45. Lucky my hungry dogs are so well behaved in the car. Oh, and did I mention that we were "sandwiched" between 2 tractor-trailers packed solid with cattle! Don't want to think about where they were headed...
i'm not far from the turnpike- you could have stopped and rested here! hope you have a better trip next time-
