Know your alternates…and the alternates to them The ramps’ earlier beginnings also mean drivers can exit I-285 and enter it outside of where the main closures are, though the delays will go back before the lane-blockages. Given that traffic moves slower on this stretch now, missing an exit and driving miles out of the way will be even more difficult. The main goal of this project has been to force local traffic to exit earlier, keeping travelers of longer distances moving at a higher pace, preventing the late exits and weaves from drivers and mitigating backed up exit ramps.īut these newer, longer exit ramps start sometimes as much as a mile before they used to, confusing drivers to no end.īefore jumping into the traffic chop suey, study a map of your route and find where you need to exit.

Once they've made their selection, they can confirm and the turn will change to the other player. Players can select either the yellow factors or the yellow squares in the grid. The border of the grid will show whose turn it is (red or blue). The game is a draw if either player has no available moves. The first player to get 4 squares in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally wins. On each turn after that, the player must pick one of the two factors from the previous turn and multiply it by a new factor (1-9) and claim the square in the grid that the product equals. On the first turn, a player picks two numbers, each between 1 and 9, and will claim the square in the grid that matches the product of those numbers. Gridlock starts with a 6圆 grid of all numbers 1-9 multiplied together - 1 (1x1), 2 (1x2), up to 81 (9x9).
