when I think of grand opening I think of the project as finished; maybe a few very minor cleanup still needed. For example, Devon Tower or BOKPP or even the I-235/44 interchange - they weren't/wont be declared finished until the construction was complete AND the lights were on.

So why did ODOT let this contractor get away with the boulevard not even fully lit? It's not finished unless you can drive it as intended, just like the skyscraper is not finished unless you can move in. ..

Was there any collusion here? Pete.
