All that, in 5.5yrs.
The St Mary's overpass has almost taken half this long. For a 4 lane bridge. And people are rationalizing it.

They rationalize because they benefit.
It’s like teachers… my neighbour has been struggling for a year to get her special needs daughter into a program that is more supportive of her needs. But nope. All full.
No actual money for the kids, but here’s a raise.
They could have put that money into meal programs, expanding extra curricular activities, school improvements… but nope. But obviously we need to have the highest paid elementary school teachers on the planet.
But they love telling us how much they care about the kids. lol they only care about themselves.
