495 South CAUTION!!!


Watch out for a nasty torn up ripple in the pavement on 495 South between King Street (Exit 15?) and Wrenthem Outlets Exit (Exit 16?)

I was travling in the fast lane behind a truck and got chunks of pavement shot up at me, luckily it was only small pieces. There were four cars just after the wripples in the breakdown lane, one of the cars windshild was cracked from the loose pavement I would imagine.. There is only one wrippled piece of pavement thats torn apart so just stay in the middle or right lane until you clear the Wrenthem Outlets..

If the chucks of pavement dont get you the hole might..... I ended up jumping it .. not on purpose..

Could be.. Everytime I hit that section of 495 I seem to get more & more air. Especially when i'm doing $#@&% MPH (speeds a tad over the posted..) Hopefully they are working there way down that way with the repaving. I looks as if they stopped work on 495. Last year they did a large section with new tar. Nothing yet this year??
