Bedlam in Yrong-Yrong roads

Construction activities slowdown traffic flow but that is not an excuse for traffic gridlocks that this blighted land called Yrong-Yrong must bear. This kingdomn is just cursed with that.

On weekends travel is smooth, the road is clear though the volume of vehicles and commuters is more or less the same, or a less a bit. 

The gridlocks recursr on the work week, starting Monday until Friday. The bottleneck starts an hour or so to the opening bell of the work day which is 8 a.m.

Contractors operate like banks. Works starts at 8 a.m. and closes at 5 p.m.If you noticed, construction companies observe rest on weekends and holidays. The rest of the week, their crew and heavy equipment hum like bank clerks. Go anywhere in Yrong-Yrong and you can see that trend.

That’s why projects done overnight in other countries takes months to finish here. Other countries can erect flyovers on road junctions in one or two months. Here in Yrong-Yrong both city and province, it stretches to years. Constructors operate only on office hours like banks.

Other countries complete their contracts fast: they operate at night when vehicular traffic is low that gives them wider elbow room to haul their materials and crew, and  move their heavy equipment. Their operations don’t create traffic gridlocks.

In Yrong-Yrong, construction works start at 8 am of the five-day work week and their crew go back to their homes or barracks to spend the night. They work at the very period when vehicular and pedestrian traffic are at their busiest, instead of doing their thing at night. 

It appears that Datu Saripada Agwak and his side kick Dyikunlu are helpless.

Nuts!
