Some time ago I asked Bonnaroo to please fix the drainage issue at the corridor going from What to Which resulting in thousands of people funneling over a few wooden pallets. I recently got a reply: "Hey glad you asked! We've actually fixed this problem this year!"

They probably just built some more permanent bridges over the ditch rather than the makeshift pallets.

maybe they actually ran drain pipes under the ground? its not that hard a job if you have some heavy equipment i guess.

Good to know. The ditch and pallet bridges was just and inconvenience for me. . . but I felt horrible for the couple in electric wheel-chairs that drove through that water after circling for five minutes trying to find another way. My gf and I went and notified staff at the front-gate office.

Im really hoping they did a liiiiiittle better than filling with concrete or rocks, and put a drain in underneath the concrete or rocks. But regardless, if they say they "fixed" it, I can assume there's no pile of plywood, and ANYTHING will be better than what it's been the past few years!!! ;D Thanks for sharing wommuck!!!

Thank God. That was horrible, great that they fixed it now. No more jumping from pallet to pallet

I like how many people think them saying they fixed it means it is actually fixed. I'll believe it when I see it after a rain storm.

That's what I was going to say. Wait until we're there before patting them on the back lol

I agree that they have a point. They are totally right, you don't know how fixed it is until it is tested. Doesn't mean that they shouldn't be applauded for putting the effort forward (that MIGHT have fixed the problem).

Also, it's worth pointing out that they are saying this in March when they still have a couple months to see how it reacts to heavy rain. I say they installed some black corrugated pipe (see below) with some smaller wooden bridges over it. For the run that they are making it, it wouldn't be too expensive or difficult.Edit: damn picture links
