Summer construction frustrates businesses

It seems like you cant drive anywhere without running into summer construction.

And as frustrating and annoying as the delays the construction creates, its an even bigger hardship on some of your favorite businesses.

At Blue Bonnet Mexican restaurant, its whats not on the menu thats feeding frustration

There`s a lot of noise, lots of dust, lots of pollution, says the restaurants owner, Gary Mobell, about the construction project that is running behind schedule for completion.

The project started in the early part of February and the project was only supposed go only 40 days. We are well past that 40 day mark, he says.

This ongoing construction is going into its fifth month.

And when its over, there will be a new storm sewer and gas lines running beneath South Broadway.

But its progress at a price.

We are about 25 percent off from where we should be at in the summer, says Mobell about their revenues.

His family has owned the restaurant for more than 46 years.
