In fairness, the streets in New Orleans are immaculate now. (I'm adding the because I thought it was clear that New Orleans roads are garbage, to put it lightly. But apparently I was wrong)

ETA: love all the downvotes, as if I'm wrong about the current state of the streets in New Orleans. Keep them coming!

going to cost that much for the study to figure out how much it will cost.

Maybe the main roads but a lot of residential roads are still littered with potholes, especially in poorer neighborhoods

No it's hard to indicate sarcasm through text.

That's fair. Someone really should make a sarcasm font, would do wonders.

But I really was being sarcastic. New Orleans roads are the worst I've ever encountered, including my trip to Honduras.

Hmmm. There's a HUGE pothole on Burthe right before Carrolton coming from River Road. I live on Burthe past Adams, so I love my street. Would like Maple to get repaved, since it's a one way heading towards Carrolton.


Didn't catch your sarcasm.

I recommend you take I-10 until you get to the necessary exit for your hotel. Then just get out of your cab and walk. You'll love the roads then!

A whole million dollars? Golly gee!
