Furthermore, Route 100, Route 4, almost everything around unavailable.

Can't really get any photos yet of many places yet because still no access. Going to be a long rebuilding period for us Vermonters! Terrible for everyone, including the cycling community.
Closer to where I am in southwest NH, near Bratt: Williamsville, South Newfane, Newfane, East Dover, Jamaica, Townsend...all those towns connected by RT 30 and 9 are in
really bad shape. Dover Rd. has craters 35ft deep and hundreds of feet long.
