The left lane of I-93 southbound from Medford to the Zakim Bridge, which had been open to general traffic since the start of the US 1 Chelsea Curves project, will revert to 2+HOV only starting Monday November 23rd.

Place your bets on having actual signage (not VMS) stating masks required if carpooling...

Who would require it? Would they say that two spouses, or parent and child, that live with each other 24 hours a day suddenly have to wear masks if they're in a car together?

Just for carpooling, which I imagine is a tiny fraction of what uses that lane anyways.
