Chicago Tollroads almost finished...can we really have one summer without construction?

There is an old joke about the Chicago weather.. There are only two seasons in Chicago... winter and construction! I am happy to read that tollway construction is coming to a end and most amazingly $200 million under budget.  For me that`s smooth sailing on 294 and I-88 without lane closures and heavy rush hour traffic. Also the new roads have 50yrs of old concrete, asphalt and repairs to have deeper, smoother highway roads to break the speed limit on. Great!

 

I can`t believe I am reading about a Chicago area project coming under budget when did that happen last when the first Mayor Daley was around? Construction and corruption have always been together in this town os it is great to read a big project saved the tax payers a little money.

Hey Ralph,

Thanks for a reminder of that Chicago joke. My wife is from Chicago and can certainly relate.

By the way, whatever happened to Hot Rod Blagoevich??

The man of no shame is a awaiting his trial with self promotion: trying to get on a reality show, the view, getting his own talk show, etc. He is a rascal
