So am I the only person who saw absolutely nothing wrong with the old surface of Rt 175 ? This smacks of pork-barrel spending and full employment to me.
Plus it's Wednesay night and they aren't done yet, and it took me 20 minutes to make it from the mall to my house 2 stop lights away. Yeah, I'm pissed. I pay way too much taxes and spend way too much time in traffic. So there.
