I am not sure of the numbers yet- there are at least 120 front line individuals involved in WEEKLY status meetings between traffic, construction, and engineering coordination meetings. You could easily multiply by 10-15 and get the number on any given day. Contractors, engineers and designers, utility companyies, city staff and others are all working to complete as soon as possible.
Wow! Would be interesting to know how many people are being employed due to Project 180.
