We received a notice from HighMark Traffic Services asking us to pass along this information to hopefully help people avoid some hefty delays this weekend. These are all secondary roads, so there may not be heavy traffic, but rather a long wait next to a flagman while you wait for a pilot car...
Billings, frustrated while driving through constructions zones, watching impatient Bottleneckers sneak past you? We watch the bottlenecker creep slowly, cutting you off from your right of way. You don't want to get hit by the bottlenecker, so do you let them take your lane or calmy drive, smile and enjoy their aggravation. Billings Bottleneckers need to start obeying construction signs and not be in such a darn hurry.
Billings, we must be excited to see traffic lights going up at the intersection of Hesper and 32nd. Congested traffic at this intersection will finally see more flow once the lights become operational.
I miss most of the traffic honestly. I get to work at about 8 a.m. and leave after 6 p.m. Do you know of any back roads that will get you around congested streets? How you do save time on your drive to work or your drive home? Come on, let us in on your secret short cut, please...
With the change of season from a mild Billings winter this year into what has turned out so far to be a pretty wet spring, what will streets in and around Billings be like as we near the first day of summer, June 21st?
Main St. in the Heights has been blocked off by police from Lake Elmo Drive to just past the Albertson's grocery store across the street from Sonic Drive-In as they investigate an "incident" that happened this morning at or near the fast food restaurant.
If I were you I'd figure out an alternative route to using Montana Ave during your commute for the next few days or plan on about an extra 10 minutes to get where you're going.
