Skip the LIE Backup at Exit 49

Take Nicolls Rd south to Sunrise Hwy — saves 15 min during peak hours. Works best westbound after 5 PM.
Southern State to Belt Pkwy Merge

Use the zipper merge at the Southern State / Belt Pkwy junction to cut through stop-and-go congestion.
Northern State Express Lane Strategy

Left lane opens as an express lane eastbound 6–9 AM. Plan ahead to avoid the merge backup.
