Wonder who will be the first to cross 44 at the light

Or if it’s anything like the highway rebuild on 441/27 in Spanish Springs it could be years! I’ve never seen anything like that project! Like 4 or more years!

Almost 2 years were lost with virtually no work being done during the pandemic which didn't help. The pandemic was supposed to help SPEED construction in the state due to reducded traffic according to the governator at the peak of the pandemic. Same thing was said about the I-4 project but it didn't probably because they couldn't get enough help.

The project is only 5 months off schedule.
It has always been a predicted 3-year project.
Tho I don't know why they don't work through the night.

My thoughts exactly.

This thread is still open and the bridge has been open for over a week?
