And it may get worse.  Cities and Counties are on a Fiscal Year budget, and they are generally out of money until July 1st comes along....then they can start making commitments and start spending next years money - so you are likely to see more local street projects beginning in the coming months.  For our area of KY the nearly constant rains have made it nearly impossible for the road projects to start.....last week a contractor told me that he had only been able to get 10 working days in so far this year!

On local roads I can generally find an alternate route.......when it really causes a problem is when the work is on an interstate and backs up the traffic for miles and hours, and folks have no options once in the jam.

My old lady reported that she's got the same situation on her 6.5 mile commute. No less than 7 construction zones and no way to avoid them.

I'm starting to wonder if they just don't want anyone to go anywhere this summer.
