Officials: Weekend traffic jams only the beginning

Officials: Weekend traffic jams only the beginningDrivers looking forward to cruising down U.S. Highway 98 this summer may have to settle for a slow crawl.
Local officials say Easter weekend was only the beginning of the bumper-to-bumper traffic coming to the Emerald Coast this tourist season.
Doug Rainer, spokesman for the City of Destin, said Monday that the weekend’s traffic woes were likely made worse by construction, crashes and unusually large Easter crowds.
“This was one of the heaviest spring break times we’ve had so far (this year),” Rainer said. “So, the volume of traffic we had was extremely high.”
Rainer said Memorial Day is also a busy holiday weekend before a consistent rush of crowds move in for the summer.
