Just in time for Monday solar eclipse. Frederick'sburg is preparing for a hundred thousand visitors to clog Highway 290. Across the state, other areas along the path of totality are also planning for the worst case scenario of traffic coming to a standstill. We expect a million or more people to visit the state of Texas to see the eclipse. Brad Wheelis with TechSdot says the roads we use most are likely to be hit hardest. Here in Austin, I-35, SH-71, US-290, US-183, our major corridors could see gridlock. It's why neighborhood libraries in parks are offering free eclipse watching events across Austin and Travis County. I personally can't wait to experience this for the first time in my lifetime, seeing it from one of our Travis County parks. Travis County Judge Andy Brown hopes many people will choose to stay close to home on April 8th. Silk Karpark is one of many parks across the Austin area that will be hosting parties and handing out free eclipse glasses to keep people in their neighborhoods. We want you to stay in place. Do not travel if you don't have to. Nine branches of the Austin Public Library are also hosting watch parties. All of these events will include crafts and activities for all ages and our great opportunity to gather with a group of people to watch the eclipse close to home so you don't have to travel far. To further reduce the potential for traffic jams, Capitol Metro is providing free rides to people who aren't within walking or biking distance of an eclipse viewing party. It's a concerted effort to deal with crowds that are expected to be the equivalent of what the city sees during Formula One and South by Southwest.
