Our Efficient and Dedicated Public Works Crew

That's not sarcasm.

I seriously misunderestimated the capabilities of the crew out repaving our main road. I expected them to finish the southbound side today but, instead, they completed paving both southbound lanes, smoothed and compacted them both and finished a preliminary striping pass, all before 6 P.M. Saturday evening.

This morning the paint truck came by again twice to finish striping the bike lane. Now they just need the bike lane stencils and the detail work for the dedicated left and right turn lanes at the end of the road.

It looks beautiful and has been noticed already. Last night we heard laughter and yelling and looked out to see several kids zoom by on skateboards. Kind of like skiers discovering virgin powder.

Now we'll just have to wait to see how long before they do the northbound lanes and the median crossovers.
