   Comments: Also street line painting downtown streets after hours and on the weekend would reduce traffic congestion during the rush hour.

   Comments: Winnipeg has one of the most dysfunctional roadway systems in the developed world. We can get from A to B in a relatively short amount of time solely because we are a small city. Travelling from place to place could be even faster if our street systems had proper planning and if road repair was done on the weekend or during the evening (while abiding by current noise by-laws). As our city has no freeways, it is absolutely preposterous that we tie up major traffic arteries like Portage Ave with street construction for months on end. Viva la revolution...viva la traffic flow!

   Comments: This would get the work done fast as well as make up for lost time due to adverse weather thus stopping the projects running into late October. Paving a street while it snows make no sence.

   Comments: Thank you for actually trying to get this done. I've seen it done in other Canadian cities, so I know it works.

    Comments: I have always asked why this is not done! If they want the work, they can do it during hours specified in the job bid(contract). The garbage p/u at our house is done at 06:00 and they are not to worried on making alot of noise.

    Comments: There's no good reason why this cannot be done in Winnipeg. This should not just be allowed, but it should be a condition of awarding any tender for this type of work.

    Comments: I have thought exactly the same thing re: our construction schedules. With Manitoba's short building season, I can't believe we're not working evenings and weekends.

    Comments: What makes construction workers "better" us regular folks not work evenings and weekends It is call shift work and if you don't like it (cause standing around with four guys watching one guy work is really hard) find another job!!!

    Comments: The road work to Waverley and Bishop is taking way too long. I have not seen any work being done even when they are there either. The City should really look into the companies they contract out such as Pourex. They are milking every dollar they can out of us taxpayers.

    Comments: This is a great idea. I am from Calgary where major work is done all night. Protect the employees, but it is doable. It is ridiculous when your construction crews work banker hours when we have 17 hours of daylight. Truly a Manitoba solution the way it is, congrats for thinking of making things better!

    Comments: I agree. It is quite frustrating to see roads that are blocked off for contruction and no one is working on them during 'off' hours. With generally less traffic on roads during those 'off' hours one would think it may even be safer for our construction workers.... wouldn't one
