  1. Construction at the 680/4 interchange creates hazardous lane-change conditions with sudden concrete barriers jamming two lanes into one at the shoulder. I just missed a serious accident with a tanker truck in that same location two days ago. Until the barriers are moved, the lanes will remain confused …

    • Yes, the abrupt merge there was already dangerous without the construction, but the dangerous situation is even worse with the construction you detail.

  2. This was My Dad..
    If anyone has any information of this accident or seen anything , PLEASE let me know…
