It sounds like a freak accident; be thankful no one was hurt or seriously injured. People have lost their lives in similar accidents. If no one was injured, why would you be starting a civil lawsuit? Your only claim is for property damage. Assuming you have automobile insurance, I would just make the claim under your policy to have your car fixed. If you have no insurance, you will need to find out what construction company was working on this city project and make a claim against their insurance company. Were the police at the scene and would a report be available?
