Holes - and Rocks - Holes - and Rocks - bang, boom, click, clack from stones caught in tires. Drivers won't STOP TRAFFIC to take pictures will they. Only a pedestrian , walking along, with a camera captures the InfraStructure issue, eh ?

I remember bridge work from September 2012, on Ryan Road, over the Red Run. Just a decade later and the deck is failing ? . Diponia Contracting from Shelby Township, MI - if memory serves me correctly ? Someone died, during the construction process. Ring any bells, jog the memory banks ?

Back in 2012, the Bridge Deck was re-worked , as Houses and no sidewalks , existed . Now the Bridge has a great walkway, but, but,but there is no sidewalk for anyone to use, where the houses existed. The potholes bounce the 25,000 vehicles - per day - around causing noise and damage to vehicles. Pedestrians notice stuff, Cyclists, Stroller moms, kids going to Halmich Park, people who walk. Cars and drivers don't do diddly poo - but drive. Who else would post this ................ think about it.

I checked - yep = Diponio Contracting 2012. Now in 2024 there are issues, problems, concerns

Google View captured it nicely - many slabs intact - and problems in a section or two . Notice the sidewalk which isn't connected to anything going south towards Chicago Road & Ryan Road.

The cameras from Google Maps picked it up quite nicely as they drove by. All the other slabs are intact, but there seems to be an issue in one spot. Why is that, standing water ? Puddling ?

Are there LOW SPOTS where water sits, creating puddles, freeze/thaw, no drainage, no holes ? It is near a huge body of water, and one would think the deck is crowned to shed water, into a drain, a storm grate, etc., etc. instead of letting water sit and cause problems.

Strange area - it's like it was NEVER completed - one side was FORGOTTEN about - yet thousands live in a massive subdivision on Dawson Drive extending almost to Dequindre.

The expansion joints on the bridge, when the deck was re-worked.

Looking forward to a SOLUTION , instead of just quickie patches that get torn out
