‘2 months and nothing seems to be done’ | University City neighbors wonder why it’s taking so long to repair sinkhole, reopen road

Katie Merritt of University City says life on Tulane Avenue has been less than pleasant these days. It’s because the street right in front of her apartment has been closed for more than two months now.

“It’s frustrating because it’s just been so long. Two months and nothing seems to be done,” she said. “Life on our street has been really frustrating.”

It’s because the street right in front of her apartment has been closed for more than two months now.

And the reason behind the closure also hasn’t been fixed.

Merritt said it’s causing problems for neighbors, other drivers, mail service and utility trucks. She also fears what might happen if an ambulance or fire truck needs to access the street.
