Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A sign in Springfield advertises the opening of the I-95 Hot Lanes this month.
Looking for a way to escape the road-choking traffic that plagues our region? In some areas, you can hop into express lanes and cruise at the speed limit to your destination — if you’re in a carpool or willing pay a price. Another set of high-occupancy toll lanes is opening on I-95 in Virginia, joining similar toll lanes on the Capital Beltway. We explore who uses them and whether this new darling of transportation planners will spring up on other highways around our region.
