Roadworks

[EN] Here’s the access road to Kal. Cleverly, they scheduled the renovation for the holidays. Kal is a peninsula, so there’s not much in the way of alternative routes. While this particular stretch can still be bypassed, I’m not sure what’ll happen later. Once, during a renovation, they made us a temporary road through a field. I don’t need to explain what that looks like in the autumn-winter-spring seasons, do I?

I get it—there’s never a good time for roadworks. Summer’s a mess because it’s a tourist destination. Fine. We’ll deal with it somehow. What annoys me more are the people speeding their cars along the bike path next to the road. Sorry—the "pedestrian and bike path." I know, rebellion and all that. But soon there’ll be complaints directed at God knows who because the path is ruined. This is why we can’t have nice things.

[PL] Oto droga dojazdowa do Kalu. Sprytnie zaplanowano remont na święta. Kal to półwysep więc innej drogi za specjalnie nie ma. Co prawda ten odcinek da się jeszcze objechać ale nie wiem co będzie potem. Kiedyś przy remoncie zrobili nam tymczasową drogę przez pole. Nie muszę mówić jak to wygląda w okresie jesienno-zimowo-wiosennym?

Ja wiem. Dobrego terminu nigdy nie ma. Latem chujnia bo miejscowość turystyczna. Dobra. Jakoś to się przeżyje. Zniesie. Wkurzają mnie bardziej ludzie którzy zapierdalają samochodami po ścieżce rowerowej obok. Przepraszam. Po "ciągu pieszo-rowerowym." Ja wiem. Rebelia i te sprawy. No ale zaraz będą pretensje do bóg wie kogo, że ciąg pieszo-rowerowy zniszczony. Dlatego nie możemy mieć ładnych rzeczy.

I'm enjoying the sheer scale of the roadworks we've seen in Morocco, but also the sparseness of them — one person to a machine, maybe two, with no-one much hanging around between. No convoy systems or traffic light setups, either: wherever there's space, and there often is, they run a temporary road wide of the damage, or build an entirely new road alongside the old one rather than patch it up.

Lil ancient Renault unbothered by the dust.

After a brief respite, we are back to continual roadworks in Ludlow

Ludlow may have just beaten its personal best. Seventeen whole days without roadworks on Ludlow’s main roads! It could have gone on longer if Seven Trent Water had not started digging holes in Corve Street yesterday. And there is more to come. Temeside will be closed again from next Monday. There will be lights on Station Drive once the Corve Street work finishes. Meanwhile, the traffic lights on…

Rintheim Roadworks. March 2024 I cycled to draw some woods but the workers shouted out that the road was closed. So I drew roadworks instead. The workers came over to have a look and shouted out to a mate to stop driving his digger as I was still drawing it.

The road outside my house is completely closed, with clear signage. I've been here just over an hour and the number of cars which ignored the "road closed" sign to have to put on the emergency brakes when encountering the road-spanning hole in the ground is already in double figures.

Roadworks along the St. Charles Avenue streetcar line, 1899. Photo from "Street Railway Review" 15 June 1899.

Original caption:

"CULVERT CROSSING, ST. CHARLES STREET R. R. NEW ORLEANS.

NOVEL CULVERT CROSSING.

The accompanying engraving from a photograph taken on the lines of the St. Charles Street Railroad Co., of New Orleans, is interesting as showing the wood paving used on all except the main streets, and also a novel culvert crossing. The drainage of New Orleans being on the surface the depth of crossings over the gutters has been limited to 5 inches in order not to interfere with the flow. The company is laying some 9 inch girder rails and at culverts it is necessary to cut away the lower flange and 4 inches of the web, and rivet angles to the web as shown in the illustration."

I wonder what intersection this is.
