Brickell traffic

There are such silly and stupid reasons for the horrible traffic on Brickell. Recently the bridge was down to one lane with cones. No one was working on the bridge due to rain and because the unneeded cones were there, traffic was at a stand still.

Why are the police, city officials, and whoever is supposedly dealing with transportation sleeping? If I had the patience to walk to that bridge, I would move all the cones to ease traffic. Sitting in traffic for what should have been a five minute drive took 65 minutes.
