Up next is a day trip to New Jersey.  The main purpose of this trip was to cover the new Wittpenn Bridge (NJ 7).  Along the way, I also covered a few county routes, NJ 10 (one of the few major state routes in NJ that doesn't yet have a page on the site) I-280 east, two-way tolling on the Verrazano Bridge (I-278), the lane reduction at the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, and the completion of the new Kosciuszko Bridge (I-278).  Enjoy!

All right, time for a big one!  Next is a long day trip up into Connecticut and a little bit of Massachusetts.  The backbone of the trip was a loop heading north on US 7, east on MA 23, and then south on MA 8 and CT 8, clinching the latter.  Enjoy!

Up next, pictures from a day trip to the Hudson Valley via New Jersey.  Highlights include the new exit 19W on the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95) and cashless tolling on the New York Thruway (I-87) and the Bear Mountain Bridge (US 6/US 202).  Enjoy!

Time for a big one: my pictures from the Schenectady/Amsterdam Road Meet back this summer.  This set includes not just the meet itself but also my trip up via the Taconic Parkway and back via the New York Thruway (I-87).

And here's another big one.  Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the Philadelphia National Road Meet last summer because I got sick with COVID-19.  However, I did a makeup trip a couple of weeks later once I was feeling better.  That trip covered a combination of selected portions of the meet, such as the Roosevelt Expressway (US 1), the Tacony-Palmyra Bridge (PA 73/NJ 73), and the I-295/NJ 42 interchange reconstruction, and other interesting roads in the area that were not on the meet, such as the Schuylkill Expressway (I-76), the US 202 expressway, and the Betsy Ross Bridge (NJ 90).  The site's coverage of the Philadelphia area is significantly more complete following this trip, and I hope that you'll all enjoy viewing it.

Up next is a day trip to New Haven, Connecticut from back in early September.  The highlight of this trip was the near-completion of the reconstruction of the Oak Street Connector (CT 34).  There are also updated and additional pictures of the Connecticut Turnpike (I-95) and I-91.
