roadworks in progress

never had a chance before to sit and watch how they resurface a road and I found it very interesting. The local Council evidently only had the funds to do half the road and the repairs stop at the house before us. They still havnt been back to put the hot mix down but I had a good chat to one of the workers and learned all about the recipe.
I didn't know you were so interested. Frank can always give you lessons in road construction

Seems like all the roads around here are currently under construction.

It's the same here- they patch a little at a time to supposedly keep costs down. My husband used to do this with his father. It's a hot job! And your collage shows the process nicely.

@olivetreeann thankyou Ann. Dont usually get to watch this activity as its mostly something I am driving around in my car so I enjoyed watching the process and hearing about it too. The man in the gravel truck was covered in dust.

It looks like quite the process. Neat that you got to watch it happening, and even ask some questions. Nice collage of the progress.

Good way to record the municipal project.

Great collage. We need to take more notice of the everyday and how each individual is doing a precise job.

Fun to watch! Up here we say we have two seasons - Winter and Construction.

It seems like EVERYWHERE road work is being done like the race to completion is on! Just looked at the comments, and as I'd heard, it's happening all over our country. Our town in So Cal is down to one passing lane everywhere! We'll be glad to see it completed!
