...you live in NJ and drive in the traffic down there. Leaving Concord on 393/9/4/202, the traffic moves along just fine and is nowhere near the volume of traffic seen in suburban NJ, NY, Ct, etc..

If you decide you want to do the "Chichester cut off" and take a left on Main St at the lights by the Hess gas station, you will have a back up at the other end where it comes out on rte 28. A few minutes stop and go the last 1/4 mile or so getting to rte 28.

If you go down to the Epsom circle to pick up rte 28, expect a similar back up coming up to the circle.

In the winter, as has been mentioned, rte 28's narrower section in Barnstead and Alton can get a little (ok considerably) bumpy with frost heaves.

An hour commute often times is pretty normal in suburbia, so this may not be that bad a commute, IMHO. (did it from Alton for a year.)
