Construction for the I-95 Express Lane extension proceeds in the median down to VA 3 (Plank Road).</div><div>On Day 5, there were tremendous rainstorms along our path home through DC and Richmond. Our GPS diverted us south on I 97 from I 895. Approaching MD 100, it said there were Flash Flood warnings along our route and offered us a safer route. The route swung us west around DC, out I 66 to US 29 home. It was the largest diversion I have seen the router make. We stopped for lunch in Warrenton VA. I checked the routing and traffic through Richmond was a mess and showing Flash Flood Warning still. We continues home through Charlottesville, Lynchburg and Danville with much nicer weather.<br />

Since the last time I was on NC 295 (I-295 Future), two more segments have opened. The segment from US 401 to NC 210 is 65 mph freeway. The segment from NC 87/24 to the All American Freeway is on the C/D lanes. The main line is not opened yet.<br />
I needed NC 242 to clinch all of Johnston County highways.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Notes</span><br />
NC 24/27 Bypass of Troy is not quite done. On the east end, the westbound pavement is closed to traffic. There is two way traffic on the eastbound pavement.<br />
The bridges over US 74 tollroad are nicely designed, similar to those over NC 540 toll.<br />
Mount Pleasant NC is a cute little town. On NC 73, there is a What-a-burger #13. There is a building named 73 & Main, at the corner of NC 73 and Main Street. East of town is Southern Grace Distilleries, which is in a former state prison.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Notes</span><br />
We drove the new US 301 toll road in Delaware. Even though it is a little longer, it saves on tolls and stress level from any route through Baltimore. There are times to avoid the Bay Bridge, like on Labor Day, where the backup was 14 miles long, but otherwise it should be better that going through Baltimore.<br />
