Yeah idk the apple app is so wacky. No matter what I do it won’t use the Wittpen bridge.. even if I add it as a stop it goes to one side turns around goes back to Kearny then up to the other side.. like how? Why?

Wittpenn bridge is closed this weekend, that might be why

I honestly think this is the explanation for why the first time I made the trip it was smooth then after that took forever. Wow haha thanks

They've been closing it weekends to test or tweak the system that raises it. Messes up traffic everywhere in the area. It's real annoying haha.

Yeah that’s totally what happened. The first time I took 280 to 95 to go around it, then today I was stubborn and went towards it cuz that’s the way my friend had showed me and I was confused why it took me the other way and I ended up in an even worse detour all the way down to Pulaski on side roads. Thanks so much I knew something was up.
