It's called $$$...go ahead..you can thank Katrina, Rita, and Iraq.
I-22 completion date is pushed back AGAIN!!
For the life of me I do not understand the reason that ALDOT is building I-22 at a snails pace.
The Completion date was set for 2012, now it maybe even later than that. Birmingham's interstate system is in major need of an overhaul maintance wise, but I guess it will take another bridge destroyed by a huge fire to get anything done.

Along with the other projects in my city, Roanoke, An art musuem, I-81 widening, and I-73 constuction all pushed back...
Wouldn't it be nice if we could "see" the money projects down here...no, most are miles away from the general populace...building levees. I really wish that the Corps would have done it right the first time...weill said:Along with the other projects in my city, Roanoke, An art musuem, I-81 widening, and I-73 constuction all pushed back...
I don't know what our President is doing but all that money going to Iraq could be better spent on upgrading the transportation system in this country. I think traffic jams and limitations in public mobility are threats to financial interests and national security. Think of how much more productive the U.S. could be if we used all that money to greatly reduce traffic in our major cities.Sean in New Orleans said:It's called $$$...go ahead..you can thank Katrina, Rita, and Iraq.
