Fuller Road Resurfacing
The trucks rolled in early this morning, the orange cones went up and before long the earth was shaking beneath our feet. The resurfacing project on Fuller Road, in Twain Harte has begun.
One-way traffic is being allowed to travel down Fuller Road; the wait is currently a short one, as crews are allowing four or five cars through at a time. The construction crew is making excellent progress, having already laid down one strip of pavement during the resurfacing project.
Drive with care.
Professional Patch Job
Roller Smooths Asphalt
From all appearances it looks as though we aren’t getting a resurfacing of the street, it appears as though we are getting a professional patch job. Construction crews are working with asphalt and rollers to patch the pavement down the center of each lane, instead of resurfacing the entire street.
I wonder whose bright idea that was? For years this road has seen patched patches and the potholes have threatened to swallow up cars whole, as winter road crew plows wreck havoc on the pavement.
I keep hoping this is just a new type of resurfacing, intended to reinforce their work but I really don’t think that’s the case.
Work Complete?
The cones are gone, traffic is flowing but is the work really finished? Road crews repaved one strip down the middle of the southside lane, and patched two strips on the northern side of the road, then left, leaving much of the road unpaved, in exactly the same condition it was in prior to the work.
Just how long this patch job holds remains to be seen.
