Yes the curbing took too long and the coordination on Vic is odd. But people will literally compare about anything.

Additionally, I completely disagree with the Ring Road work. As the bypass will remove much less traffic than you all think, it would be the same story next year. Plus somehow I managed to never once drive through it, so you all need to drive less.
Agreed. I often had to drive through it and it was often frustrating but what can you do? I made the choice to go to yoga classes on the other side of the city, just as people made the choice to live in the suburbs (or my girlfriend made the choice for us to visit her parents). Am I to expect the city to not repair one of our major roadways so that I can get there five minutes faster? Or should they have spent significantly more money in overtime to get it done at night (even though there are houses along the way)? Should they have spread out the work over a number of years instead, again costing us much more? People seem incapable of having perspective nowadays.
