There is a roadblock on...
00:09
would have been Route 1,
00:14
near Guilford,
00:17
Rafford.
00:18
So I'm going to have to turn around and jump on the highway because the road is completely closed.
00:23
10-4?
00:25
10-4.
00:26
Come in, base.
00:27
Come in?
00:28
Yeah, where exactly is the roadblock so I can figure something out for the next.
00:34
I don't know.
00:35
I'm not from this area.
00:36
I don't know.
00:37
I know it's Route 1 by Branford/Guilford.
00:43
Bye.
00:46
All right, but I mean,
00:49
where did you have to detour off of, I mean, what kind of business do you see around or something?
00:55
I went into a commuter lot.
00:59
And right off the highway off of night, I mean,
01:03
going towards New Haven,
01:05
I saw entrance to the highway going towards New Haven.
01:09
So I, um...
01:13
I continue street at Route 1.
01:16
I'm trying to find an entrance that will take me to Guilford.
01:32
You're currently heading outbound, you're still on Route 1, correct?
01:36
I'm heading outbound, right, but the direction I'm going is inbound, because I'm trying to get onto I-95.
01:47
Gotcha. I see what you're saying.
01:49
So yeah, at this point in time, you'll have no choice but to take the entrance on exit 56, which is by the old Chowderpop.
01:57
I don't know if you remember that ever.
01:59
Yep. I remember.
02:00
remember that area.
02:02
Yeah, so once you get to that traffic light, you make a left,
02:07
and that'll take you to the entrance to the highway.
02:10
You make another left and go back out.
02:13
Okay, ten-four.
02:14
You know, across, you know, running late, you know why.
02:18
Yeah, I understand.
02:19
So, uh, Exit 55 would be your next, uh, your next exit after that, uh,
02:26
and you know, that's where the hoist feeder is earlier?
02:29
I think so.
02:31
Yeah, once you get off exit 55, you'll make it right, and you'll be back from regular room.
02:35
Okay, ten-four.
