OVIEDO, Fla. – During rush hour, it’s not uncommon for drivers in Oviedo to get stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
Our News 6 team spoke with people in the area Thursday, who said it can add almost an hour to their commute when trying to get across town at peak travel times.
“It’s all very crowded,” said one man. “It can add a good 30 to 45 minutes to my drive.”
“It’s very bad,” said another man. “You know, stop and go.”
