Auto Diesel

 

It's not often we see road works down here but for the last few days we've had to wait in line for some council work to be done.



It turns out they were trimming the greenery around the side of the mountain road on the way home. Rocks and trees tend to fall down onto the road in front of cars when there is a big storm.  Good to see they are keeping busy.

Linking up with Weekend Reflections and the Weekend Roundup.

Good to keep the roads clear of rocks and tree limbs.

Hopefully that makes that stretch of road a bit safer for motorists. Can't be much fun having something crashing down as you drive past.

Don't you just love having to wait for road work to get out of your way. It looks like yours had gone down to a single lane, cars wait for their turn. It looks like the garage has closed until the road work has finished stopping traffic.

I never like getting caught in traffic because of road work, but it is necessary. Love your colorful header photo!

Some of our mountain roads have huge wire nets to stop things falling on the road. It's a huge danger. Good they're keeping things clear
