Good luck getting anywhere.

The start of the labor day weekend was met with significant delays on the Belt Parkway and FDR drive relating to traffic accidents.

In southern Brooklyn Friday morning, a vehicle struck the overpass of the Belt Parkway near Bay 16th Street, shearing the roof off the vehicle and leading to two lane closures (along with significant delays).

Apparently this type of incident is a recurring problem:

Second time in about 2 weeks I seen a truck do this at the same exact spot. #highway #beltparkway… http://t.co/3furxw8rf8 — Garrett Fatone (@DJGarrettFatone) August 29, 2014

Later Friday afternoon, there were extensive delays on the FDR Drive in both directions due to a vehicle accident at East 6th Street.

so much traffic on FDR…i guess everyone wants to get out of the city as soon as possible — Mark (@BlazinPinoy) August 29, 2014

The Department of transportation urged drivers to “consider alternate routes.”
