souali....we just came back from Orient. beach boys were running down the beach advising folks to head out asap. We are staying in Oyster Pond. Took route back to Orlenas and there was a white van blocking the road right at the intersection for turning onto the coastal route. Must just have been put in place around 2:30 as there were not many cars backed up. I've used detours there in past so knew where to duck into to bypass and pick up the coastal road close to the canal bridge.
However, the road was blocked for sure. For how long, don't know as we boogied right out of there.
Myslef, I suspect the timing was designed to catch as many cruiser busses in the gridlock and force ships to either sail without them or stay in port.
