Can Franny get to Fox Point from Foxboro?

Sunday afternoon, Franny from Foxboro set out to visit her granny on Gano Street.

Franny has been driving from Foxboro to Fox Point for years.

She knew the Route 95 S curves. She could maneuver the high-speed exit onto Route 195.

But Sunday, as she approached the Gano Street exit, she was confronted by a wall of concrete.

The exit was gone and, before she knew it, Franny was over the Washington Bridge heading back to Massachusetts.

A frustrated Franny finally got herself turned around and found her way back to Fox Point. She was relieved to see that Granny's Gano Street exit is still open from Route 195 east.

Now next Sunday, and many Sundays to come, Franny has to remember to get off Route 195 at Wickenden Street when she's driving from Foxboro to Fox Point.

Granny's Gano Street exit will be closed until the end of next year when the new southeast ramp to the Iway is finished.
