So it might be - with some other changes:

The something is unspecified - a natural disaster? A traffic pileup?

I was being facetious when I said I had no idea what was trying to be communicated. But, thank you for the translation.

A flyover is what we call a freeway or highway ( which I believe it is in the USA )

It's a colloquial term for a motorway ( it's proper name ).

It has absolutely nothing to do with islands or mainland etc.

Hope this helps?

It's more than just a motorway, freeway, or highway:

I think the quote in the original post was saying money spent on a flyway somewhere would have been better spent on a bridge somewhere else.

I was just clarifying that us Brits call a flyover.

And granted I just went by that not the entire post

Thank you Suzy

Agree whole heartily its torchure.

There's so much trouble with "its" and "it's," isn't there? *hint, hint*

I'm not an educated man ( however got decent grades at school till I left at 16 ) and in my current work ( scaffolding ) my spelling/grammar and my written skills altogether have taken a knock and it's actually since I joined here 2 months ago that I've noticed just how bad it's got .

However I would like to say that I have the utmost respect for all writers and I've been had the pleasure of talking to three wolves in snow, sonic spork, elnina, pj singer, I am woman as well as others ( you know who you are ) all of which are highly educated and a challenge to reply back to . LOL and I like to say thank you.

But I think I've improved quite a lot in the short time and would like to thank everyone for their patience.

Cheers bobby
