Maybe it was all the new signs. Maybe it was the barrage of warnings from the Department of Transportation and the media. Whatever the case, Tampa Bay area motorists seemed to deal with the newly realigned Memorial Highway with barely a brake light or traffic jam on Wednesday. The morning drive time seemed unaffected, and even the 5 p.m. traffic crunch appeared no worse than usual. The changes were instituted Wednesday morning and most affected drivers getting off Memorial Highway onto the Courtney Campbell Causeway.
