President Obama's visit to cause mass transit disruptions during rush hour
2012-06-14
President Barack Obama is making another trip to New York City that could cause big problems for commuters.

He's scheduled to arrive in New York City Thursday afternoon, along with First Lady Michelle Obama.

They're expected to head to One World Trade Center in lower Manhattan around 5 p.m., where they will meet elected officials including Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

They will get a firsthand look at construction progress at the World Trade Center site and President Obama will sign a beam that will become part of the building's infrastructure.

They will then attend campaign events, including a fundraising dinner at the Plaza Hotel.

Actress Sarah Jessica Parker and Vogue editor Anna Wintour are co-hosting a fundraising dinner for the president's campaign at Parker's Lower Manhattan home.

As with most of the president's frequent New York City visits, it is expected to cause rush hour gridlock.

Expect road closures in Lower Manhattan while the president is at the World Trade Center.
If I was a New Yorker traveling at this time, I wouldn't vote for the guy simply for disrupting my day. Does Obama know, or care what he is doing?
