No idea, but I love your username. I'm also a fan of Mr. Belvedere.
You know, if you are a true fan, you can come visit him. I have him in a jar in my basement...

Wouldn't count on too soon....
It did take them 7 YEARS to expand 235 for 5 miles!

I wonder if they are supposed to continue that through the 235 & St. Andrews Church Rd intersection? I occasionally have to make the U-turn from N. Bound 235 to go back South (near the Wildwood apt entrance). That takes forever and it feel like you're playing a game of chicken.
There has been one accident already.

So I heard a week or so ago. I don't know them, but friends of theirs told me about it. I initially, upon hearing about it, questioned the amount of responsibility to be placed on the rider, but after riding and driving that stretch, I went back on my initial thoughts. I went from, "Hmmmm, any reasonably proficient rider should be able to negotiate a surface height difference", to "Yeah, think I can do that, maybe, if it was that or eat a bumper, but no way hell would I try that for anything less." Were I riding say a KLR, it might be different, but I don't. And on a dresser, awhellno.
I am totally confused by the repaving south of Wildewood Blvd. I could swear that we lived through this same crap just a year ago.
I need to remember if I ever go south to go down 5. The worst part was no body here knows how to merge for what ever reason (I know that is a different rant that has been covered many times) so when it went back to two lanes after everyone was merged together just to go back down to one lane just a little ways down the road made absolutely no sense. YES!!! Kind of like my run on sentence but the day has been too long and my sleep too little to fix it.

I agree. It's hard to determine exactly which lane you should be in or when the merging ends. Totally ridiculous.

For some reason they could afford to do 235 in Hollywood at night just a year or so ago. I can't understand why it's okay to do a higher traffic area during the day now.

Well, kinda, sorta
What they did a year ago Bernie, was go along and fill all the cracks with tar. Not only is that a complete waste of time and material, it looked like crap! What I can't understand is why they insist on grinding up both lanes and shoulders at the same time, and then taking a week to start the repaving!

There was an article in the Enterprise yesterday that said two more weeks. The guy they quoted blamed the weather, saying they got rained out 3 days last week and the two week estimate was dependent on good weather. They do seem to be making progress with the paving now. It has been a true exercise in frustration.
a week? LOL
Could be a lot longer if the weather pattern doesn't break.
I could swear it wasn't that long ago when they added the third south bound lane -
