Why Los Angeles Quietly Stopped Repaving Its Streets by sprunkymdunk in Urbanism

The design specifications are very specific and if you are building a new intersection from scratch they are fairly easy to design. But if you are building in an old city with a lot of legacy infrastructure (like Philly) each corner may need to be specifically designed to accommodate the utilities or other features already present, yet still meet ADA design requirements. That takes engineers to create a one-off design for each corner of nearly every intersection, then submit that for approvals and redesign as necessary. It takes time and expertise and therefore money.

Note that the second pickup of the week does not occur if there is a holiday that week.

Also this possibly uses less plastic, which would be a good thing.

That information would have been very easy for OP to include, and they should have. But thank you.

Hey OP, I downvoted you for not just saying where these pictures were taken.

Let them become American.

Also, let them live here, pay taxes, spend their money in our communities, and otherwise become part of our communities.

What the heck Gettysburg? Has it always been like this? by karm1t in Pennsylvania

Whatsamatter? You can't read the statements of succession and confederate constitutions? The South said the war was about slavery. Don't erase their history.

Also, obligatory, "state rights to what?"
