Don't get me started on the York Street sewer repairs, which have done a fantastic job of snarling up traffic along King Street during rush hour. And those repairs were supposed to be done by the end of August. Here it is, it's late November and they're still ripping up pavement.



London has to be the worst for coordination of public works projects. It's either done all at once and makes life really inconvenient or it's done in penny packets here and there and never seems to get done. It's like city engineers go out of their way to make life miserable for people. Who knows? At the rate they seem to be going, they won't be done until late January. Or possibly later. Much later.Don't get me started on the York Street sewer repairs, which have done a fantastic job of snarling up traffic along King Street during rush hour.
