The podcast captures the decades of work, strife and political shenanigans leading up to the project, and also catalogues the incredible mismanagement of the project overall.

PODCAST: Sardiñas looks to control costs in ‘Big Dig’ for Key Biscayne :
“Technology will continue to improve. And maybe it's not wise to spend too much on current technology, because future technology might be better, cheaper, more accessible,” Sardiñas said

#Miami #news
In an effort to leave no stone unturned in getting the lowest price possible, engineers are being asked to study what might be called a ‘let it flood’ scenario for fighting rising seas and persistent street flooding in Key Biscayne
The newest option, which came at the request of Council Member Brett Moss, would allow for so much street flooding that only emergency vehicles could traverse village streets at the peak times of a deluge. #BigDig #BrettMoss #
@bBuck @historicalimages great pairing with @gbhnews current (and wonderful) #podcast on the #bigdig!
PODCAST: Key Biscayne’s sea level rise cost is $250 - $300 million, manager says. :
Nov. 8th, Williamson is hosting a town hall with top engineers from the project to address public questions about the projects, which are under scrutiny after the price of the flood control project alone came in at $310 million in August.

:
The Village advertised for proposals to develop a 12-month “strategy and action plan” that would build “buy-in” from the community. The contract involves conducting community meetings as well as creating materials to engage residents.

If you're a fan of #infrastructure projecta and the intersection with #people and #change, you'll enjoy the #BigDig podcast from @gbhnews in Boston.
The Big Dig is iconic as an overbudget construction project.
But looking at it just as a project limits our understanding. The backdrop, the personalities, the #politics are as much of the story as the concrete, iron and design.
Its a lesson all #engineers will benefit from.
@marxistvegan Ah, but the outbreak struck in 2003, so the Central Artery still looms over the heart of Boston.
#TLOU is the only universe where the #BigDig took even longer.
@LikeItOrLumpIt Yeah, there's something about the way this park is situated (it's a human-made hill on top of an old garbage dump and landfill excavated from #boston's #bigDig ). Always windy.

Oh hey friends, The #BigDig is done! Can you believe it!? I have seen this same project take a few days at other households, and I think we lucked out with this plumbing company. They are packed up and gone and I even planted 200+ daffodils that they covered up for me.
