Add to the woes of Fair Traffic anywhere near Conway, the utterly frustrating construction area in North Cornflake most of the way to Intervale.
If one decides to make the run this weekend......
-- remember that the southerly interchange from the Kank to the Conway area dumps onto 16 for a short run to Conway Village ( access there to the Westside Rd). That interchange is going to be madness, but if you need to/can use the Westside Rd, just gird yourself for the gridlock.
If one chooses the Kank and the Bear Notch Rd to Bartlett then south on 302, you'll have to gird yourself for construction gridlock basically from Intervale south. If you want a work-around, you can take a left on Hurricane Mtn Rd, then a right to Cranmore, and work your way down to the North South Rd with access into North Conway village.
If one is REALLY desperate to make a destination in N Conway, Conway Center or Conway Village, Kank to Bear Notch Rd to Bartlett, 302 to Intervale, left on Hurricane Mt. Rd ALL THE WAY UP, OVER AND DOWN to Green Hill Rd, turn right and rejoin 113 W at Jesse's store in East Conway. Take 113 in to Redstone, where it will be ugly again, but you'll be contrary to the traffic flow. That is a HUGE detour out of your way, but it can be THAT BAD.
It won't be pretty, traffic -wise, I promise
The Fryeburg Fair will be trying to pack in ~ 50,000 people over roads that see this peak traffic once a year. The experienced know all the back routes, too.
Good luck!
