Government listening to people?

Just heard an amazing report. The planned rebuilding of Midland Drive (one of the main thoroughfares, for those of you not fortunate enough to live in our fair city) has been rescheduled for next spring. Seems that the many businesses, large and small, located along Midland Drive pointed out that the project would disrupt their holiday shopping traffic, and couldn't it please be done at a less inconvenient time?

City planners, contractors and TxDOT agreed, and so we'll get a reprieve from this massive pain-in-the-rear for a few months.

This could set a dangerous precedent. Logic and cooperation: whoda thunk it?

I'm glad. I commute to on that road and don't wanna drive on it. Traffic on Midkiff will increase probably, which is already bad between 3-7 (school and work gettin out). I might be better off taking the Loop. Never any bad traffic on the Loop.
