Today they had us at a 3 mile standstill southbound to replace light bulbs at 1:45pm between Etna and 40th st.

You’re not wrong. They’re there at 5:30am setting up when I go through on my way to work (harmar) and they’re wrapping up when I come back into the city at 3:30pm. They literally have made zero effort to NOT impact traffic. Between RIDC and the mills today they had one lane closed each direction, why? Why TF knows, I didn’t see ANYBODY working anywhere, I drive back and forth several times a day and I’m just baffled at this shit.

When do you think they should complete the work?

You should join the industry and take a stab at planning a project like this!

Jokes on you I already did, that’s what I do for a living. The huge project near the highland park bridge yes, I get it, especially since people live very nearby I don’t expect them to be working with jackhammers at 2am…

I’m talking about line painting, lightbulb changing…that type of shit, that random lane closures with out signage or incorrect signage. The project manager needs to coordinate better with the separate crews doing all of the work in the myriad of projects going on. It’s just getting out of control.

I guess they've added a new one between Millvale and Etna?? This is absurd. I've spent too much of my life sitting on 28 in bumper to bumper traffic over the last year and a half.

They were doing something on the train tracks on the north bound side too but they required the right lane to be closed. I was like wtf.
