Saturday AM Parkway Traffic?

It's been eons since I drove down the shore on the Parkway on a Saturday morning, but I have to be in Toms River by 12:30pm and I'm wondering how much time I should allot for the trip. My last experiences have been that it's a parking lot all the way down, but I'd like to get more recent info if you have it. Thanks.


People's last year experience won't matter since the extra lane is now opened.


I would leave by 11:15 but if there is an accident, all bets are off. Use the local lanes so you can bail out if it gets bad

Thanks. I've been going down during the week off-peak and have allowed myself 1-1/2 hours each way, so that's good to know. I was wondering if anyone had made the trip down after Memorial Day this year.


Weather looks pretty lousy both days, so I think traffic should be lighter than usual; I'd think 90 minutes would be plenty. I've been down a couple times since Memorial Day (actually on Sunday of Memorial Day weekend, too) and have had no problems at all, but I also leave early (7:30 am or so) and only go down to 98, so my experience may not be typical.
