I agree. It's time to give these traffic lanes back over to the city. Please clean them up too.

It looks like they are almost done with the place. Hopefully within the next week or two the lane will be open again.

I know!!! what is so weird is that this building was nearly COMPLETE and was moved into months ago, and then apparently they had so many problems they tore it apart and have been picking away at it ever since. Today, saturday, I witnessed a near tragic accident, 2 guys on the lift which had been fully extended were clinging for their lives as the platform was tipped so they couldn't stand and there was obviously a serious problem! And that cherry picker with no stabilizers should never be moved with the crane platform all the way outat an extreme angle, clearly it could flip. They looked pretty damn scared to me.When they finally managed to get one guy to the ground we saw they knew they were. Finish this ridiculous plastic parthenon/ palace up and give back Blount and Edenton.
People here drive badly enough, they don't need any more excuses for accidents!

Thanks. This is being referred to the Public Works Department. When they have responded, an update will be posted.

Just want to say thanks to St. Augs Mom for that apt description- plastic parthenon palace! Neighbors know how it's constructed because for the past two years the pink styrofoam that lines the fake "granite" has been broken up and deposited in yards and parking lots. And believe me, the construction crew has done nothing to clean up after themselves.

The contractor had a meeting yesterday to discuss the repair and will complete this work by Friday.

Let's not close this until we see it! If the work is done by tomorrow does that mean the lane barriers will be removed, along with the buddy barrels, and the pink styrofoam picked up?

Now they have roughed up parts of the lanes on Edenton and Blount Street as if they plan to repave. Meanwhile, the barriers and buddy barrels remain in place. City of Raleigh, please do not close these issues until you are sure that someone is telling you the truth about the issues we inconvenienced citizens report. This has gone on far too long. Is the contractor paying the city some fines for going so many months over his agreed upon completion date? There is no way this work will be done by the end of today. Thank you for looking back into this.

Street open guess city didn't close ticket
