This is a perennial complaint but I agree things do seem particularly bad lately. Front Street east of the St. Lawrence Market is a warzone, dug up and patched so many times you can barely walk across the street without tripping. The trucks bouncing over the ruts at Front and Sherbourne rattle so loud I always look up expecting to see a 10-car pileup. All the stop and crosswalk lines are long worn away, so vehicles have no guidance on where to stop and often block the crosswalks even when there's no traffic.
The major watermain and other construction along there has been going on well over a year now... every time it seems like they are finally done they come back and re-dig a hole. Original finish dates for the work was spring 2011, then fall 2011, then they just took the signs estimating completion away. I understand they are trying to wait until *everything* is complete before resurfacing (to avoid justified angry complaints of new roads being cut up) but the flipside of this approach seems to be that since the construction is never done, they never resurface, and things just keep getting worse and worse.
