What?

It makes sense except for cutting the main line down to two lanes. But ODOT has a fetish for doing that. I can't stand when they do that. They cause more bottlenecks with that way of doing things than anything else. The curves are definitely too sharp, but the rest of it I think was well thought out.

What does Easton, Massachusetts have to do with this thread or ODOT?

Nice. I drove past that (on the Ohio side) a couple or so years ago when it was being built and thought that was an interesting concept.
seicer:
- I'll have to post photos in the next few days, but the Wellsburg Bridge looks awful. The bottom half of the bridge is a nice deep brown color but the upper half is a light brown with splotches of dark brown patches.
- While flying over the Blennerhassett Island Bridge (US 50) between Ohio and Parkersburg, WV, Thursday evening, I spied a significant fuel slick and was able to trace out its origin. I called the Ohio EPA's emergency line and got a reply within minutes. I sent them my images and they were able to get a crew out there the next day. I also gave the company who owned the dock a heads up and they were indifferent to the spill and told me to call back the next day. They didn't seem too thrilled when I did call back the next day, saying I should have notified them first.
- The Memorial Bridge in Parkersburg looks very nice now that the rehab work has wrapped up. It's now pay-by-plate or EZ-Pass; no toll booths remain.

What if your street was closed for repairs, and nothing was done for over a year: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/we-re-in-peril-out-here-residents-waiting-for-progress-on-road-closed-400-days/ar-AA1iIOxg?ocid=msedgntp&pc=DCTS&cvid=7e82ff7466874c32921edadc55a503e5&ei=45. If I lived on Ford Rd., I'd be pissed too. And Ford Rd. is a county highway to boot: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ford+Rd,+Ohio/@41.724126,-81.1107039,5738m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x883199e615bfe83d:0xff22ef04f8ab9d0d!8m2!3d41.7237572!4d-81.0933065!16s%2Fg%2F1232fzm0m?entry=ttu.

I've seen plenty of County, Township, and city roads closed for multiple years. State DOT maintained roads don't get closed and forgotten about (unless they are being abandoned).
