SOMEWHERE BETWEEN BOSTON AND LYNN — It seemed like a simple proposition: Try to find the quickest way to commute from Boston to Lynn in the face of ongoing construction on the Tobin Bridge. Three days and $183.75 later, we felt a little differently.
Last Friday’s experiment pitting two Item/itemlive.com reporters and photographer Spenser Hasak in a friendly competition ended with Thor Jourgensen reaching Central Square by commuter rail at 5:41 p.m. — 10 minutes before Steve Krause and Hasak rolled into the square following their trek across the Tobin.
