Afternoon Traffic Volume Delays

Afternoon Traffic Volume Delays

No sugnificant delays, except volume delays. Best Suggestion, if you don't want to be involved in normal, daily volume delays, take a different route home or to work.

Examples:

Destination: Downtown Buffalo -
Elmwood Avenue
Delaware Avenue
Harlem Road

Destination: Niagara Falls, NY
River Road
Lasalle Expressway
Niagara Falls Boulevard

Will these routes decrease or increase travel time - hard to say, but changing your route may change your path... in life. See something new, meet new people. If your a salesperson, you may find new leads.

Sales is all in attitude, change your prespective and change your life.
