Contraflow

 I find contraflow intriguing and have written about it before. Contraflow desccribes the procedure of reversing the flow of a lane of traffic to accommodate a change in the volume of traffic moving in a given direction. I originally thought it might be a cost saving measure, but I have changed my mind.

I have decided they do it here because there is not enough room to expand the road to four lanes. So a team of department of transportation hires each week day gets ut very early to put down traffic cones and then about noon picks them up again.
