Road Works Ahead

Tar Burning India

The construction season is in full swing now.

To most of you that just means roadworks and delays.
To us, involved in highway maintenance, it is at last getting problems solved.

A crew are working their way south digging up and stabilizing areas, behind them come a subcontractor sealing stretches of road.

Near Mokau a new section of road is being built over the old one. (an Overlay)

Engineers and others are scurrying about with spray cans marking out patches for later repair.

We are now in a race against weather and budget constraints.

The more that gets done now, the easier our winter will be.

Dig you buggers...
