"Florida says 2-lane roadway is $3.3M per mile. So a few hundred feed, costing millions? Nonsense."
I was thinking of a stretch of highway or freeway - four lanes - when I asked the reader to "think of a stretch of road being worked on". Sorry - wasn't clear.
Also, I was measuring in meters. So, 400 meters of four-lane @ 6.6M per mile ... that's ~1.2M, give or take.
