RIDOT speeding up work on one entrance to Iway bridge

PROVIDENCE - Governor Carcieri weighed in on another day of heavy traffic faced by many commuters two days after the opening of the new Iway bridge, according to projo.com.

At the least, he said, traffic should be the same as it was before. But last evening's commute, he told John DePetro this morning on WPRO-AM, "Right now it's worse than normal."

After more complaints about the traffic, the state may try to open the Wickenden Street entrance onto the new Iway bridge in four weeks.

The new entrance, which is under the hurricane barrier in India Point Park near the old Shooters night club, was not scheduled to open until the spring.
