Paving Crew Delays Cause Backup On Mass Pike
WESTON (CBS) -- We just recently celebrated the 200th birthday of Henry David Thoreau, of Concord, who wrote that "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation"--and that was well before the invention of automobiles.
There was a lot of "quiet desperation" on the pike this morning after a paving crew overstayed their welcome.

MassDOT tweeted an apology in response to one Twitter user, saying a paving operation had continued past schedule.
Not long after that, another apology.
Usually these things are done by 5 a.m., but not today--and sometimes traffic means having to say "I'm sorry."
The lanes were reopened shortly after 7 a.m.
