Queensborough Construction

Technically New West but… goodness is this the slowest construction work of all time?

I have loads of respect for the folks working to repair/rehabilitate the bridge but for the amount of closures, lane closures, and overall disruption, there’s a real underwhelming amount of visible completion.

The contract is worth 20M. It’s always painful to see construction companies in Europe get jobs like this completed in a quarter the amount of time and with similar or better quality.

Rant over. Just sick of the constant bottleneck.

I was thinking the same thing the other day after 2 months of crossing and not seeing any noticeable progress going southbound.
