Just that direction is shut down. They are now diverting all cars going that direction off the bypass at the mall exit

And now both sides are shut down. As an excavator is helping to clear the accident.

Both directions were shut down as of 5 min ago as a crane was in westbound lane probably to lift truck.

Southbound blocked at Naylor Mill Rd exit also. Traffic back up at Naylor and Jersey 4 way.

This is just the beginning! Just wait for the vacationers who didn't have all this construction last summer. FUN FUN FUN - NOT!

It's been much longer than that driver. The police need to monitor the bypass more. People have gotten used to the construction zone and have increased their speeds to pre-zone levels.

I had one jackass almost run me into the joisy barrier when he "yielded" coming from west bound rt 50. If I was in my older truck things could have gotten ugly.

It's tourist time. Welcome to lower PA.

It was a street sweeping machine that flipped on its side after hitting the wall. I wonder if it was a road construction piece of equipment, or a city of Salisbury piece of equipment? I got through this morning before the northbound side was shut down, but it was stop and go all the way through. They are way behind schedule on the northbound repairs and there is no way they are going to have it open for summer traffic, like they proposed. A HUGE problem is in the making for this summer's traffic. It is going to take less time for a Baltimoron vacationer to get to VA Beach than it will take them to get to OC. That bypass fiasco is going to ruin the season for OC this year. It is a mess now, and going to get worse.
