466A to 301
 

I have lived here for the last three years and for the life of me I can't figure out why the connection from 466A to 301 in Wildwood can't get finished. There must be some crazy reason for having 466A closed so long.

Amen! We moved in last October just a work started. As I recall it was supposed to be completed in 1 year. Last I heard was December.....

Keeping Villager drivers out of WW.

You are just spoiled. You are too used to projects managed by The Villages being finished before they are even started. :1rotfl:

Some of the ladies at the Wildwood post office live in that area and said that the construction has stopped because of lawsuits from homeowners regarding property damage. Cars seem to be able to go down to a certain point now, but the area surrounding the intersection hasn't been touched in months. Since they live in that area they might be on to something. Perhaps someone at Wildwood City Hall has a more definitive answer.

In the meantime, take Powell to Huey Street and make a right, or take 44A into Wildwood. Both will take you to 301 or the shopping mall there. Very easy.

This is true.....If that short section of road was done by Villages crews it would be done in a month. Apparently they are using the same people that did 441/27 and took several years.

Their is a MAJOR difference in putting in underground infrastructure and building roads in basically virgin land, that was only ever used to grow hay .... and trying to deal with multiple property owners and finding that existing underground utilities are not where they are shown to be on the prints of previous construction.

Road construction crew NEVER know what they are actually going to find once they start digging and every found unknown is a delay.

The Super Dome was built in less time and that is in the heart of a major city!!!!

If dogs are allowed in cars that use that road I am not going to drive one it. :cus:

Ten Miles plus of Freeway could be built up North in half the time as this project!

I don't think so!

You took the words right out of my mouth.

HUH ????.

Uncle B. started construction on August 11 1971.
Finished in August 1975...Took 4 years to build The Superdome.

It Opened 7 months after Super Bowl 9 was scheduled to be played there.

Estimated to cost $ 46 Million...ACTUAL total cost came in at $ 165 Million.

"Lawsuits from property owners" should not stop construction at this point in time. There must be other problems---such as contractor bankruptcy. Not a major problem as pointed out that there are alternative roads into Wildwood.

What if they are approved by the Feds as therapy dogs?
