Big Surprise!...I-485's opening....has been delayed.

Don't say I didn't tell ya so.

But the recent cold and rainy weather in and around Charlotte has delayed the opening of Interstate 485.

An updated opening date has not been announced.

Hey, after 18 months behind schedule...what's another few days...(or weeks).

RE: The I-485 extension is about $8 million over budget. If the contractually-provided penalty of $10,000 for each day of lateness is applied using the original 2007 scheduled completion, it should work out that the penalties would just about pay for the over budget excess!
