Expect temporary closures on Jadwin Avenue at the intersections of McMurray Avenue and Catskill Street. Detours will be in place to help motorists. You may want to plan ahead to take alternate routes.

I've already altered my travel routes. I've had the pleasure of trying to navigate through several overturned traffic cones. Now, this was at 5 am, not during rush-hour. Still, I've been avoiding Jadwin Avenue the last couple of weeks. I recommend using Stevens Drive or George Washington Way as your alternates.

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.
