What is Gandalf doing there?
If that person didn’t either drive over or move cones and signs, it’s the construction crew’s fault, not theirs.
Yeah, this is a facepalm on the construction company. I don’t think I have ever seen a road like that done all at once in both sides. Especially in a residential area.
On top of that cones/signs do not seem to be anywhere in sight.
At the end of the video, you can see the tracks come from around the bend. Can’t see the end of the street so we don’t know if there’s cones or signs at the intersection
True but when the camera pans around you can see what appears to be construction vehicle and also no cones or signs.
There should be cones/signs on both ends of construction.
It does look like they have a flagger from the shadow. Still, if there’s no cones or signs that not good enough. Also to my previous point, they shouldn’t be doing whole ass sections of road like that. It should be split and driveways should be coned off to prevent this from happening.
There should be signs all down the street on both sides warning about parking and driveway access from x time to y time as well. I see nothing.
She tries to turn around as soon as she sees the workers. That should say enough.
I assume they lived on the street and the residents were ill informed
Maybe I’m just a dumb Australian but what are they doing exactly? Painting a street? Why? Is it purely decorative or is there some functional purpose eg “seals the surface so ice during winter doesn’t crack it”
Applying sealer to asphalt every few years extends how long the asphalt lasts before it has to be replaced.
Thanks. I can see how our Australian tradition of letting roads just go to shit confused me.
I guess we don’t really have freeze and thaw cycles. Only hot and even hotter cycles.
And we put that shitnon our roads it melts out anyway haha
I just think it’s a thin layer of tarmac? Maybe to smooth out the road more and reduce noise.
Spent a summer doing that work. Shit is nasty. I had a 5g bottle of acetone and had to scrub for 30 minutes every evening.
