Residents in Lorain frustrated over construction delays

This morning, we are getting answers for you on why a road project in Lorain has been taking longer than expected. Several viewers reached out to us saying that construction along Yorktown and Longbrook roads was supposed to be done in late June, but it's still causing a lot of headaches with many residents not able to use their driveways. Lorain City Councilman Joshua Thornsberry tells us the project is currently three weeks behind schedule due to a number of issues, including Yorktown Road being worse than expected, and they've had five water main breaks since the project started.
