Nothing to worry about

The Federal Highway Administration has released its report on Boston’s Big Dig and they have declared the $4 billion $14.6 billion tunnel project to be “structurally sound”:

The Big Dig's tunnels are structurally sound despite hundreds of roof leaks and dozens of wall defects, according to a Federal Highway Administration report released yesterday, but the state must develop an aggressive tunnel inspection program to ensure the roadway's future safety.

Phew…I feel so much better.
