Can somebody please enlighten me on who is driving the decisions at ODOT for some of these construction jobs on the North/South roads on the north side of the city??
For instance:
I live off of 192nd and May. Savy? May avenue is in desperate need to be widened at 178th which they are working on now. They shut down that section of the road. I'm fine with that. But now, I see a sign pop up this morning that they are shutting down 74 highway today near the Kilpatrick!!! It doesn't say for how long or anything like that. So they just cut off easy access to
the two main roads that alot of people use to get home at the same time! You go a mile west and hit McArthur, and you have a 4-way stop sign that takes a good 15-20 minutes to get through...plus ongoing construction. So they are, in essance, pushing alot of people to use Penn to get home that wouldn't normally go that way.
I understand the widening projects are needed, and I will be happy when they are done, but why in the heck do they have three different projects going that affect three main roads at the same time!!!! Grrr!!!
