Quick, someone alert David Mincberg
Houston's traffic signals are up and running:
The last traffic light without power in Houston was near Brock Park in the city's far northeastern corner on Monday.
The signals at Brock Park and Tidwell still were dark as of 4 p.m., but crews were working on them, city officials said.
The other 2,426 intersections in Houston now have working red, yellow and green light cycles. So far, the city has spent an estimated $6.31 million fixing the signals — including costs for equipment, overtime and the hiring of more than 120 contract workers, according to Michael Marcotte, director of Public Works and Engineering.
Mincberg can get off his best buddy's back.
