Navy Pier Flyover not done until 2018?

Good lord it started in March 2014?! I'm glad they're doing it but Four years? Can we get more than three guys to work on it?

Every time I see something like this, I remember that the Pentagon was built in 16 months.

And the manager in charge took over the Manhattan project.

Hey, those three guys are working as fast as they can! Give 'em a break!

That would explain why they created a massive bottleneck at Oak Street Beach in October 2014 and have only put pylons in by Navy Pier. The fill-in at Fullerton's going much faster.

Phase 2/3 will kill the Path for 2+ years

The construction has already proven to be very unbike friendly unless they use jersey barriers to make a bike lane in what is now trafic on the bridge I don't see how they will keep this open to Foot/pedal trafic while they work on the bridge

It is hard to believe it can take this long. I bike by this area most days and see these guys working hard but this doesn't smell right. Maybe the design is overly complicated?
