I see a notice on Wildwood's website which says the widening of 466A from Powell Road to 301 should be completed by April 2015.

I believe the first estimate was Oct or Nov 2014. Now April 2015. I'll place my bet on Dec 2015. Good thing this contractor isn't building an interstate hwy from Fla. to Calif.

And how exactly does a dog drive?

I don't know but I did ask my dog to take me to my doctor's appointment, as he is a better driver.

The reason for the delay was substandard pipes and drains were found after the site was excavated. The proper decision was made to replace these while the work was ongoing rather than wait and in a few years tear everything up again.

This was reported several times by several news sources.

Are the other modes of transportation e.g. Motorcycles banned? ::

Looks like Shimpy is going to lose a bet.
