I don’t understand how this helps the school schedule? Now people farther east have to leave before 6am when the old schedule accommodated busses before the 9am closure and the 3pm is the same for after school…who does this help?
Right. And I’m wondering if they will do something different for friday before labor day weekend.
New updated schedule in the post above.
Chuck, no one gives 2 sh*ts about the buses. Way more important is that some jackass thinks opening the road only once between 9am and 3pm, and then adding an extra hour of delay at the end of the workday, is a good idea….To quote Bugs Bunny, “What a buffoon, what an ultramaroon!!!”
Enough already with this BS!
Nevermind milking the crap out of this job, how about they just get their act together and move the F**KING SLIDE out of the way and open the entire road?
I’m willing to bet their working bench will fail, simply because I believe they designed it that way.
This crew needs to work on Redwood House Rd. in order to have enough experience to complete the Hwy 36 repair.
IDIOTS!!
Thanks for sharing the update shifting the repair schedule on Route 36 to better fit school travel hours shows thoughtful planning for families and commuters. It also highlights the importance of alternatives like using a trusted service such as BlueNileLivery.com when road delays affect routine transit.
