If you have an hour to kill and want to go out of your mind, take a trip down South Bayshore Drive any day from about 9 am to 4 pm. For some reason, the fools at the new Villas de Vizcaya on Hiawatha have seen fit to screw up the street, so they have had to dig up the street at the intersection of Hiawatha and S. Bayshore and do some sewer work, which they are now making their life's work.
Every day, the street is shut down and traffic is backed up for about a mile in either direction and it winds up 17th Avenue, back to US1. No joke. The intersection of 17th and S. Bayshore is a parking lot all day.
The guys directing traffic do not know how to make it flow and even ambulances are stuck in traffic and are not making it to Mercy Hospital as fast as they should. They are literally at a stand still.
Why is the City not involved and why are the morons working on the project not told to be there 24/7 and weekends until it is fixed. They actually work a six or seven hour shift each week day (no weekends) and then close up shop, leaving the mess for the next day and so on and so on. It's a never ending traffic blocker and no one seems to care.
