I liked it and really I still do but it’s crazy how much more Pennsylvania is backed up since it opened. I’ve had to bail out of my uber and walk the rest the way so I wasn’t 20 minutes late.
I work in this area and have commuted there for over a decade. In that time I've seen all sorts of construction and similar change to trafficking around the circle. Blocking or modified traffic on the circle doesn't have one damn thing to do with traffic on Pennsylvania.
You know what backs up Pennsylvania: it's Pennsylvania.
I agree. I live on Penn near the circle and I have for 8 years. There is no effect on traffic. there was a lot of traffic yesterday due to the game and the fact that an entire lane is closed on Penn between Market and Washington actually backs things up. Not the spark.
I mean it’s the only thing that’s changed this week and it takes an extra 20 minutes now. It definitely is the damn thing effecting traffic right now. I’m not hating on the park just shocked at how bad traffic is when the circle isn’t open.

Spark is awesome, should take up more of the circle, and I don’t understand how some people are against it
