I don't know about everyone else, but my patience is starting to wear thin for this project. The intersection has been in various states of closure for a month now and they don't seem to be in a hurry to finish.In contrast, the contractors that did the sidewalks wrapped up much longer stretches of road in much less time, with what seems like a similar scope of work. My memory may be hazy, but I think the entirety of Bruning got sidewalks in 2 weeks.Perhaps the lowest bid wasn't the best one here. Who can we pass along this feedback to?Adnan

I think it is the same contractor for the sidewalks and the street (it’s all part of the same contract?). They changed the intersection quite a bit and it involved needing to take up the pavement and repave the new lanes and they had to keep some lanes open. Probably would have been quicker if they just shut it all down from the beginning.
The sidewalks were much simpler than the intersection work. Although the sidewalks under 290 took them several months to finish.
I did not see the original estimated time before the project began, though.
