Construction Project Hurts Business In East El Paso

Ever since construction began to try and fix the drainage problem at Lee Trevino and James Watt, businesses in the area said they've taken a big hit. "Our customers can't come in like they usually would when the streets are open, and it's really been hurting business a lot," Valley Feed Petsmart Robert Barnes said. Nearby at SF Performance Center, Hector Hernandez worries his business could soon be forced to close its doors. "Our sales have been down a lot lately," he said. "In sales as far as money wise, we're probably losing a thousand dollars a day." The construction is scheduled to be completed in September. No one from the city was available to speak with KFOX.
