Work finally started last night on the Brooklyn Bridge, a $500 million project that’s expected to take at least four years. For the duration, all Manhattan-bound lanes will be closed at night. On weekdays, the shutdown with be from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m., on Saturdays from midnight to 7 a.m. on Saturdays and on Sundays from midnight to 9 a.m; there will also be 24 weekends when Manhattan-bound traffic will be suspended for the entire weekend. Official DOT info on the matter is available here. In an article this morning, The Daily News says that the project “means much pain for drivers” and CBS News calls it a “revamp nightmare.” Did anyone happen to drive over the bridge late-night last night? How gigantic a hassle do you think this will be?
isn’t there another bridge a few blocks away?
Blame John Roebling, who builds a bridge to last 125 years which also needs maintenance once in a while.
this will just keep the bridge and tunnel partiers who live in brooklyn (usually in those weirdo neighborhoods in south brooklyn like gravesend and sheepshead bay) from driving into manhattan to go out to da clubs lol. believe me there are lots of those types.
*rob*
Its really John Lyndsay’s fault.
Yes, it is but he will try to make you believe that it’s Bush’s fault.
time to move to Manhattan
The public are such whiny kids. This is Obama’s fault right?
“Revamp nightmare” sounds like another Reality TV show about fashion designers.
“CBS News calls it a “revamp nightmare.” ” — the media are such drama queens about everything.
