System of a downed overpass

It is too late to stop the destruction, but it is not too late to book Joey Chitwood Thrillshow to jump a car across the gap.

Maybe?

Kickstarter anyone?

No, that would result too much toxicity in our city.

I believe the contractor (Barletta) gets to keep the scrap metal to recycle as a perk of the contract, but it does have be recycled.

I drive through here every day, and since construction started, I've been timing my drive home.

In the mornings, going Hyde Park Ave/Washington, left on New Washington, up the ramp for Arborway to Murray Circle, my time is vastly shorter since construction started.

On the way home, there is backup doing this in reverse. I find the cause is often people cutting into the left lane right at the split because a) they are jerks who don't get in the left lane and wait with the rest of us and want to cut, or b) aren't regular commuters or don't realize until it's too late that they need to be in the left lane. For stopwatch times from Murray to the light at South and New Washington, my worst time has been 15 minutes, but it's usually about 10. One day this week (must have been a holiday no one told me about) I did it in under 3 minutes.

BFH idiots have also disrupted this traffic with flyering this week. They are actively walking out in traffic to hand out flyers, holding up cars, etc. I've called the hotline to complain, but it doesn't seem to stop them. They're asking to be run over, and one of these days, I might just forget which pedal is the brake.
