They're probably still waiting for the paint to dry.

So they just built back 2 lanes with no room for expansion? Have the other roads taken the traffic off?

I was telling my wife just a bit ago that I felt the new bridges were wide enough for two (skinny but do-able) lanes in either direction if the need arose. But there is very little traffic there now, so I don't think there is a need. NFON has taken the bulk of the traffic for sure.

It was a nice smooth ride across, and cut out quite a bit of extra slow-speed detouring through Wakefield. I'll bet those folks are glad the bridge is open as well.
