It seems like they'll be out there doing roadwork in one area for a bit, then abandon it to start something new, leaving all the equipment there and the roads closed. What are we doing? Is it really that difficult to finish any one of the several construction projects scattered through town and campus?
It's especially frustrating when it comes to things like leaving apartment entrances closed and roads where people live in general. The entrance to Aspen Village has been closed for well over a month. The last time I saw or heard anyone working out there was weeks ago.
Who is organizing this construction?? What are they even doing out there??? Where IS everyone?? They've got roads torn up left and right with nothing to show for it, because they keep going out and starting new projects before finishing any of the current ones! The road from that roundabout to airport road has been closed since summer break started!! Not to mention that lift that has just been sitting outside the stadium for ages and taking up, literally, half of the road.
I can't believe we're not talking about this more? Me and my girlfriend cannot be the only ones sincerely inconvenienced by and frustrated about this. We get construction and road work every summer, but this year they seem to be especially bad about just abandoning half finished projects.
This isn't aimed at the construction workers. My frustration is directed at the city, or whoever the appropriate people to be frustrated with are. Like, we know people still live and commute around here in the summer, right??
Edit: Thanks y'all, this has been super informative as well as validating to my frustrations haha. Good news is I was down by Walmart today and it looks like they're done with that road! So there is certainly some progress being made (slow progress, but progress nonetheless)!
