Western New York Bridges

So when we close, it's a big deal, and a lot of the jobs, a lot of the work we have on the bridge, we have to close forSo we've been scheduling a lot of our closures, like, at night and on days that are less impactful for the surrounding communities.

But I mean, once you think about just this one corridor, how much money that it sees in product and commerce, and how it affects everybody, you really got to take a step back and think, "Are we doing it the correct way?" Like, how are we affecting people and businesses? Because something as simple as, like, windmills down on the East End in Wyoming County, they have to come through our job.
J
12:33Jen FreaneyGUEST
So we're affecting infrastructure development in another part of the state by repairing this bridge.

17:46Jen FreaneyGUEST

J
17:55Jen FreaneyGUEST
Uh, it led us very limited access for inspection teams to actually come in and see the girders.
J
18:01Jen FreaneyGUEST
Some of the girders are 15 foot high, you know, so they can't use the over the side, uh, equipment to see them.
