 Wed Feb 19, 25 12:27 pm Hood River bridge replacement budget, twice the price! |

 Talk about sticker shock!
Latest guess: 1.25 BILLION.
Start a betting pool on when the new bridge opens and the toll?
I’m going with :12th of never. Toll: no fricken way am I crossing the river!
News at the Bridge Authority website.
Some cool video of the Kewitt guy talking actual design and build stuff, but you’ll need to search a couple of the YouTube meeting dates.

Fortunately the federal government will fund most of that!

Let's make it an even trillion and add it to the big beautiful bill, who'll even notice 
My dad worked for Kewitt in the 60's and 70's, they're too big to fail now. Like contracting with Haliburton when Cheney was vice prez.
They'll dictate the price of this boondoggle
So completely desensitized to corruption at this point... as long as it's windy tomorrow, it'll all be ok. |
