They have now dug another gigantic hole at the end of our street.
The first hole, a month or so ago, was to install new manholes. This hole, I think, is for pipes going into the manhole.
I have discovered (to my surprise) that metal beams lie under the road at intersections.
To drive onto our street, we have to drive on a narrow gravel track at the corner of our neighbors ditch. I wonder if he minds...
As I watch this construction project unfold, I'm trying to understand what they are doing. They installed the gigantic cement manhole stacks first.
...Now they are installing these large cement culverts...
...And, a few blocks away, these smaller blue (plastic) pipes. (I'm not sure what they are for.)...
Every time there's a new task, they have to dig up part of the street.
Hopefully it will all be done before winter arrives!
An encouraging sign: On some streets - those which were dug up last fall - there are markings that may be for sidewalks.
But there are other confusing sights I really don't understand!
Is the truck parked on top of the gravel to protect the gravel?! Or is it just someone's prank?!
