Working for the state DOT in Vermont I must say we do have some interesting on and off ramps, especially in Southern Vermont.

Ok please explain this to me, because I make the drive from northern CT to northern NH along 91 for 120 miles in VT and have been confounded every year.....
WHY IS THERE SO MUCH BRIDGE WORK?????
Also I was horribly saddened and upset about the old iron truss bridge from Guildhall VT to Lancaster NH being replaced with a boring modern bridge. Why!

On the interstates it’s because most of the bridges were built in the late 1950s/early 1960s, and on the secondary roads many of them were built in the 1930s and are thus not designed to withstand Irene-sized storms.
As for the bridge between Guildhall and Lancaster, I can’t speak for that because all of the bridges over the Connecticut River between VT & NH are maintained by NHDOT, but I think the bridge may have been fracture critical.

The Story so Thrilling, It needed a Sequel!

Well you know what they say about sequels, the body count is always higher and the death scenes are always much more elaborate, with more blood and gore.

Funny story - driving back from boston to QC, at one point the road ended in construction and the GPS didnt know where the fck to go, everything was under construction and I took a back road for a bit, I found this new road and one opened on-ramp, but it was a trick!!
It was an OFF ramp, I will never forget the fear of having to back out but thankfully the road was empty at lunch.
Vermont you cray, love the franconians tho

They really threw a curve in there considering how Vermont Exit Ramps I ended so abruptly.
