Road Construction Update: Almost...but Not Quite!

NEARLY WORDLESS WEDNESDAY


They're coming to the tail-end of the construction of the new road.
But there are still quite a few little details that must be done before they can
lay the asphalt.


The short extension of our road, the part that comes to the T with Los Pecos Loop,
is smooth and flat. It appears to be ready.




But the back part of Los Pecos Loop,
up in the high meadow, still needs work.
Yesterday, they actually started laying stone
in the borrow-ditch next to the road here.









Last week, they took the forms off the concrete
sides of the utility boxes.
The cable conduits have been labeled with
mysterious numbers indicating what is being delivered
by them, and to which lot.







This week, the boxes are on the concrete,
and have been labeled with the voltages
and a power company serial number
to identify them for the linemen.
To the left is the round water access.



It's begining to look like they could finish any day.
Now we just need good weather, and I will be able to post pictures of the road being laid.
Almost. Done.
