Traffic on 45 going back into town in the afternoon is not as bad as it has been in previous years during spring break. Maybe people are deciding to stay on the island, rather than day trips, or maybe parents are going to take off towards the end of the week to take day trips down there?
Not that I mind less traffic than in previous years during spring break…
