It is very frustrating when, after taking great care in planning to attend an event, verifying the route and allowing for enough time to get there, I see an EXPECT DELAYS sign on the horizon.

…and now back to the next sign. I refracted with ALTERNATE ROUTES several months ago and this next sign certainly reinforces that blog.
