Building a construction road
Christmas is coming a week early at the Beers. At 7:30 am, the trucks arrived to start the construction entrance. Ours is not a cool site because the commuters come flying around the curve (late of course) on their way to work. Here is the arrival:
With the first load of stone and grit, an entrance is formed:
After the second load of balast arrived, the temporary road is extended. It is trickier than you might think to get the road at just the right height, slope, and tilt. Of special concern - getting the path set so the dump trucks can tilt the back dumper without hitting the electric wires overhead. If you look very closely at the last two pictures, you can see how low the wires are compared to the street.
