Why does anyone think that this project should be different from any other? Does anyone remember the Greenwood Bridge? RI highway projects are always over-schedule and over-budget.

Starting in the 70's, the contractors' friends in the General Assembly began cutting the State DOT budgets, and municipalities followed suit; as a result, highway departments no longer have the ability to do much more than fill a pothole or replace a culvert. Contractors have the taxpayers over a barrel and that's right where they want us.
