Hopefully this will end soon, at most a couple of months. Most large infrastructure projects take years.
That's not factoring that it takes months or years to get a project started. By the time you finish with the engineering everything will be back to normal.
here in South Florida we had a number of infrastructure issues mostly pertaining to sewage and they were causing major bottleneck traffic.
When I passed this projects recently with almost no traffic on the road I was just thinking how so many of these projects can get moving while everybody is sheltering in place
Part of the road jobs are drivers in different trucks, social distancing fully.
I'm just thinking that some jobs that will take a month in would normally cost a lot of problems would be easy to do now
