Construction on the roads in El Paso can be hazardous for some drivers. Besides construction causing traffic, it's caused some close calls for drivers.
El Paso Stop Using Parking Lots as Back Roads to Cut Into Traffic
Now more drivers and businesses further up along N. Mesa St. are encountering problems during the road work. Just yesterday, Monday, February 8, the road crew started setting up the cement blocks along N. Mesa St. after Brentwood Avenue. Before we were able to pick a lane out of the three to drive on at Brentwood Avenue but not anymore. Now from Brentwood Avenue, you can only continue up N. Mesa St. in the far-right lane. Which is now the only open lane.
When the road is down to just one lane that means you can expect all sorts of craziness. There are people thinking they can find a short cut to squeeze their way into the traffic on the road. Those people I am talking about are the ones that cut through business parking lots to try and get ahead in the line.
The Longest Wait in El Paso Goes to the Juarez Exit Ramp 22b
Depending on the time you will encounter long lines and waits in El Paso at different spots. But, if I had to be the judge about where the longest wait is in El Paso that should be simple.
The waiting line at the bank is a piece of cake and NOTHING compared to the wait on a late Friday afternoon at I-10 West and Exit 22B.
Well, last Wednesday N. Mesa St. and I-10 West had the longest wait, ever. But the difference between that traffic from that accident is that it isn t reoccurring like the traffic on I-10 West at exit 22b just after Raynolds St.
