I work in street repair and maintenance and (NOT FOR DOT) DOT will not allow us to work on or near a busy state roads during the day time. We have to schedule our work at night.
So I guess this changes everything.If no one has the authority to get these people off the street during rush hour then I guess this gives us the right to do our work anytime of day.And I hope a DOT rep shows up on the job then maybe I can get some answers out them.
There is a time and place for everything and yesterday at Hwy 421 & Hwy 74/76 was not a good time or place to tie up so many people.
As so many people have said it is only going to get worse.I think the state of North Carlina has weighted too long to build a another road from Wilmington to Brunswick County. It makes you think which is more important,my home or my work, which one should I give up to avoid this Hwy.I have too much time tied up in both. Hope for the best.
