Damn. This highway must go all the way to Berlin.

Also it’s not on hold. It’s delayed so they can widen the flyover first.

Let’s just agree to rip the bandaid off instead of a slow pull. I’m actually okay with some forward thinking.

It really astounds me that we have barely functional retards that are in charge of anything more than a snowball stand in this shitshow of a state.

Why not add yet another lane to make it 4 lanes on the flyover. 2 in each direction while construction on the eastbound lanes are under reconstruction.

That way when the project is completed by the end of the decade, you will have 3 lanes going onto the bridge and a wider westbound flyover ramp with a shoulder.

Any way with construction not starting until mid decade a new administration and DOTD head can easily change those plans.

Not so fast, my friend. Time for another environmental/equity study.

How to avoid this.

1. Buy a house close to your work.

Problem solved. The end.

How much can you realistically widen the road? What happens when the project is finished and the traffic is still shite? You need to remove vehicles from the area to see relief. Lanes only help a little. I’m referring to the area around Acadian. On the other hand, yes you can’t go down to 1 lane.
