Reply to comment by boiler49 in Fox Point Air Quality by lightningbolt1987

I mean I haven’t seen anything online about problematic air quality in fox point and barely anything about it in Providence. It constantly smells like gas fumes in the neighborhood and it’s not because of 195–I’ve lived near other highways before without encountering this issue.

There is an asphalt plant off Allen’s Ave that I think is the source of a lot of the fume stench - not 100% sure though

Sometimes the smell of gas fumes when I’m driving on 95N then the 195 exit is super strong. I always wondered if it was from those white holding tanks off Allen’s Ave. And I know what you mean it’s not car gas, it’s like a natural gas smell. I’ve never smelled it when I’m in Fox point, but Probably just haven’t been there at those times when it smells.
