A little late, but I see you and your Shawn of the Dead reference.

One day we will see I-95 fall and the city connected to the shore.

I hop off and usually hop back on in West Haven or Milford and hope that the traffic has let up.

A classic

I remember taking a wrong turn once around Mitchell Library on my way home and unknowingly drove straight into this mess. Traumatized me for life. I swore to never make that mistake again and now I always triple check which turn I’m taking anytime I get anywhere near Whalley

I hate that light in downtown on the Frontage Road/Oak Street Connector to enter the freeway from the hospitals

It wasn’t that bad today. Got through it fairly quickly, even at 4.

The sun was low and bright at this time, it was a bad drive for a few miles there.

Consider it validated lol. I’m due for a rewatch of Shaun of the Dead.

Poetic

I wish they sold pints. That strip is already amazing for the food. Add beer and it’s famous.

Whalley is a death trap

complaining about traffic while actively contributing to traffic

Nah long wharf trucks

These out of staters act like they've never seen the GD ocean lol

Whalley Ave is worse IMO. I loathe Whalley Ave; begins innocently enough as you exit downtown, immediate congestion near Dwight St., rips open like a highway by Stop & Shop only to be shafted by 5 lights covering .6 miles. Chaos abounds from the Boulevard to Osborn, cruise by the graveyard until we screech to a halt entering “downtown Westville” aka the Worst. Red lights, phantom merges, turn only lanes, buses, pedestrians, etc. At worst it’s a crawl from the Mitchell Library to Amity, at best it sucks. Not bike friendly at all but I have seen a few sickos try. Probably top 5 street for pedestrians being hit every year. Everyone uses the Valley St route to avoid Whalley. I also use the Amity Liquor parking lot to cut over to 63.

I dunno, a pic of 5pm traffic anywhere is a drag.

At the Winchester?

Edit: I don’t know how many people will see this but can someone validate my reference lol

Pull over have a pint and a taco and wait for it all to blow over

Yes! Well not me, but a friend of mine had her car stolen, was found a few days later abandoned but no damage done, was most likely just a couple of kids who eventually ran out of gas

Stay at the graduate hotel, it’s very central, great bar in the basement, and affordable.

I don't know about that, the letters are much smaller than YALE.

Bridgeport biggest city in Connecticut

Very fair! I don't disagree hard enough to argue it, but bellas has always been my number 1.

It wouldn’t be a New Haven recommendation if it wasn’t without controversy!
