Reply to comment by lunar_unit in Main Street paving between 15th and 25th by SnowWhitesBox

Yeah these are all good points. I suppose I would agree I’d rather the city do it cost-effectively than not, I would also say just more information about what is coming would be nice.

Can confirm Dock Street tends to be awful in general, gotta say the 64-Nine Mile-31st route sounds circuitous as hell, but I have been needing to go to Walmart… might do that tomorrow

Also consider the Leigh St bridge to Mosby to Princess Anne to 21st/E Clay to get from downtown into the side of CH.

There's so much street work happening lately, it's hard not to get snagged up somewhere.

Haha my first reaction was “no don’t blow up the secret way! Lol” but there’s plenty of room, y’all come on…

Lol. Don't forget the super duper secret back way on the Richmond Henrico parkway (parallels the Cannon Creek Greenway bike path.) Pops you out at Brookland Park Boulevard and other destinations in Northside. Lately it's been way faster than 95 to Chamberlayne.

But really, WHERE'S MY FLYING CAR??!!

At least VDoT will log onto Reddit and give us a heads up when something major is about to happen (amongst many other avenues). There's really nothing with dates on the Richmond DPU website, or on their social media of the work currently being done on Main Street, and the only reason I know that a project is currently ongoing in the Carver neighborhood is because the RTD had an article on it in late February...

Road paving has nothing to do with DPU. Unless it's paving restoration as apart of a utility project.
