Strangely I saw the notice after a delicious lunch at Sterle's Slovenian Country House (danger, embedded polka music!), otherwise I would have completely missed that there was the possibility of any more public input, of which I am sure there should be plenty.
Just imagine how important this project is to businesses in and around Cleveland. Then imagine how many commuters it affects as well as visitors coming from the airport. Now maybe it becomes apparent how vital the innerbelt bridge is to not only the fabric of the city but also our image. I understand the need to rush this project in order to capitalize on federal money but that should not supersede the base requirement of a project being done well.Labels: Cleve. Events
