I drive this overpass every day, twice a day. A couple of years ago they did some major repairs. They came back and fixed something almost immediately. I mean ripping off new tar down to the cement and steel supports. I was not impressed. They've been back a couple of times again since and this morning... they'rrrrrrreeeeee baaaaaaaack... I cannot help but wonder why? They seem to be working on the steel plate parts, the connecting thingys. I'm hoping that's not too important to the structural soundness of the overpass?I'm seriously considering changing my route to work. Though that's not the overpass that really has been bothering me. Funny enough this is not the overpass that, for some strange reason, freaks me out. It's the Howard Avenue/EC Rowe one that I drive under every day, twice a day. I hate, hate, hate stopping for a red light under it. I usually just stop before I get to it if the light is red. The guy in the big hurry behind me honking through the entire red light trying to make me move up 5 car lengths so he can move up 4 and stop at the red light... I ignore him. I just don't get a good feeling stopping under those thousands of pounds of concrete and steel.
