Many Bronx residents took the road Wednesday, traveling for Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n
News 12 spoke to traveler Jayden Reyes while he was fueling his car before driving to Connecticut to see his family. <\/p>\n
He shared how seeing the traffic made him slightly nauseous, but he’s determined to make it to his family. <\/p>\n
“I’m in New York alone, well not in New York but in the Bronx alone. My family are all out there in Connecticut so for me to spend time with my family I have to make that trip,” said Reyes. <\/p>\n
However, some Bronx residents like Kayla are choosing to avoid the holiday traffic and stay home this Thanksgiving, noting the high cost of gas and groceries. <\/p>\n
“I just came from holiday shopping for the Thanksgiving dinner, and it was extremely different from last year,” Kayla shared. <\/p>\n
AAA predicts Thanksgiving Day will be one of the lightest travel day this year for the Thanksgiving season.<\/p>\n
When it comes to traveling back home from Thanksgiving, AAA suggests returning early Sunday morning or waiting until 8 p.m. to avoid heavy traffic. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Many Bronx residents took the road Wednesday, traveling for Thanksgiving.
