Yaddy, true to his hallmark, creating problems where there are none.
Also, solving problems that were never problems, except for him.

That sounds like one of Pete Buttplug's racist bridges.

No lane closures during the day, on-budget, on-time.

Here in Virginia, we have the "mixing bowl".

If you want to retire at age 30 with a gazillion dollars, build:
1) bridges
2) tunnels
3) interchanges
4) metro airports
5) container ports

A little off-topic.
When Long Island roadway system was laid out, those with power purposely built the road overpasses with low clearances.
The reason you will be told is than they did want trucks, boxed and trailers, to have access to the their roads.
The real reason, some say, was to disallow bus routes, as they did not want lower income residents in their towns.

No entrance/exit ramps on my road, thankfully. That's muh driveway going off to the left.

Road maintenance = they run the grader down the road each April to smooth everything out. That's it.

Maybe your people can teach yaddy's peoples the right things to do when rural planning, as he seems to have a few complaints each day.

Accident huh? Hmmm, was your rock still in the driveway or did it wander out in to traffic?

It would be, if Yadkin only posted one thread a month.

Instead, it's merely epic, like all of his threads.
