Bucks County commuters who got caught in last Wednesday’s miles-long traffic backups over one of the busiest toll bridges in the region, get ready: Carmageddon 2.0 is coming later this week.
The Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission on Tuesday issued a “severe travel warning” for Friday morning on the Scudder-Falls Toll Bridge which connects Bucks and Mercer County, New Jersey.
If weather permits, the two New Jersey-bound travel lanes will be narrowed to a single lane for I-295 commuters during peak commuting hours, the commission said in a press release. The closures are expected to last from 5 a.m. to noon.
A Hartford teen was arrested in connection to a Meriden accident Monday afternoon after state police say she failed a sobriety test and was driving in the wrong lane.

On Thursday, April 15, 2021 at approximately 9:41 a.m., Southern District officers responded to Northbound Route 4 and Southern Maryland Boulevard in Lothian, for a report of an armed subject with a gun.
The victim/reporting person is an employee with the Maryland State Highway Administration who was blocking the fast lane of Northbound Route 4 with his yellow work truck.
The victims vehicle had an illuminated arrow sign board directing vehicles into the slow lane while he followed three female workers who were collecting trash from the roadway in front of the SHA vehicle.
The victim stated a white male in a black pick-up truck stopped in lane 2 beside his SHA vehicle and began threatening him and yelling at him to get out of the road. The suspect then produced a small black handgun and waved it around inside his own vehicle.
