Bahahaha a 30 mile corridor where drivers spend on average 30/34.5 extra minutes in traffic on their commute is bad?! Whatever bullshit metics this research company used to determine that was the most congested stretch of highway in the country is straight up junk stats. There are parts of the 10/405/5 freeways in LA that every single morning take 30 minutes to go 5 miles if you're lucky. LA isn't even the worst traffic in the country either, apparently DC is quite a bit worse. The fact that you even referenced an article calling out 35 minutes of traffic on a 30 mile corridor as being bad just shows how disconnected from reality some CT people are when it comes to traffic.
