Anyone driving into downtown Chicago can't afford traffic – and now they're not enjoying the visual experience while stuck in traffic either.
Graffiti has become the new welcome sign to people at the Jane Byrne Interchange where the Kennedy, Dan Ryan, and Eisenhower expressways meet. Salvino takes the Edens to the Kennedy daily.
Yet three years later, the new concrete walls are still getting sprayed – sometimes from the middle of the expressway.Now, the Illinois Department of Transportation says when graffiti pops up in the middle of a construction zone, there are times they can't get to it because it's too dangerous to remove. But remember, the taggers themselves are getting up there.
"A lot of these pieces take time to do. It's not like they're whipping in and getting out. There's shading, there's grading, and color," said Salvino."I'm like, how long are they taking to do this, and nobody is busting them?" "The angles that they're getting at - I want to know what time they're doing it at; how they're getting on those angles leaning over," Salvino said.
