The town has FINALLY started the process, literally, of repaving our street!
They were out there all day yesterday grinding and removing the existing black top. It's all now down to ground up black top, stone and dirt. Amazing what these heavy machines can do and in almost no time. The poor souls of the past who had to do this type of work by hand without the assistance of today's technologies.
The roadway has been in terrible condition for many years now. The winter plows do a number on them. Of course there are some contractors and town works who don't take their jobs seriously or pride in their work and do half assed work, which has also been the case here.
So, the banging and clattering and booming of vehicles hitting the potholes will some be gone. It's safe to assume this will be replaced with cars speeding up and down.
Whatever, it's long overdue and a welcome sign.
