There have been quite a few things going on over the last week or so with the roadworks. The photos below show the major things that have happened, but in addition they have been continuing on digging their trenches and then filling them in with pipes, rocks, a type of fabric and dirt (in that order). They have also been building up upon the section of the old road that starts from our corner. I estimate they have put about 40cm of dirt on top of the tar in some places.
But anyway, onto the photos.
They have dug away this large section in order to provide drainage for all the water still coming out. They have now extended it away to the left so that it connects up to the small creek that runs there. You could probably find a picture of the creek in previous posts.
The bridge has been the most interesting thing to watch. This photo, taken on the 23rd, shows how they have been putting rocks and fabric down.

This is the interesting part. Today (Thursday) when I went down to see what they’d done I found that they had laid concrete all over the fabric that had been laid. See the zoomed-out shot below.
