The commute Tuesday afternoon resembled a parking lot on many major routes through Saanich.
Traffic was snarled on a long section of Douglas onto Highway 1 and on routes intersecting and leading to it.
Many people took to social media to vent their frustration.
The culprit? Paving construction on a section of theTransCanada northbound just past the McKenzie Ave/Admirals Road intersection.
Many people tweeted their bewilderment over crews paving during the afternoon drive home.
Hang onto your patience - the work isn't done yet!
Next Monday February 12, expect to see construction on Highway 1 between Mackenzie Avenue and Burnside Rd off ramp.
Starting Tuesday February 13, watch for a week of construction on Highway 1 between Mackenzie Avenue and Grange Rd.
Both projects will involve a lane shift and the speed limit will be reduced to 50 km/h.
