Sad but true.

7. Road construction is permanent and continuous. Detour barrels are moved around during the middle of the night to make the next day's driving a bit more exciting, but nothing ever gets finished, and more construction starts everyday.


I actually have a theory about this one. I think that the city dictates a mandatory "start date" for a road construction contract in their bids to tender but don't specify a completion date. Thus, the road contractors start projects all over the place, work on it for a little while, then leave it - to start another project somewhere else, leaving unfinished projects all over the dang place and nobody working on hardly any of them.
