Road construction

For the past couple of weeks, ever since the the riots on Delmas 83, there has been a lot more construction happening in our neck of the woods, or should I say on our roads.  A couple of weeks ago the people that lived on and around Delmas 83 decided that they had enough of the waiting and took matters into their own hands.  They had their walls pushed back well over a year ago to start the fixing of the road.  The construction of the road was slow going, sometimes did not happen at all.  So after one night and one day of tire burning and stone throwing the government relented and they put construction crews on full time busy repairing the road with huge machinery and even cement trucks.  Yes even cement trucks.  It has been a blessing for those travelling that road, one we use to take Chloe too and from school every day.  Half of the road is paved now and the other half will soon be done.  Here are some pictures of the big machinery and piles all over the place and traffic build ups.  But there is progress and for that we are thankful.




Notice the pavement halfway up the picture...so happy!
