I know a list like this could go on forever but here is a start, 1. On the subject of road improvement they are widening the concrete road beside us which i am grateful for BUT there's always a but, i am not a civil engineer or road widening expert but i think the in charge must have the drawing upside down as they have started widening the part furthest from town and working their way back. This of course means back hoes, big trucks and cement mixer trucks thundering up and down the narrow road causing havoc with the internet and electric wires and also water pipes. I would have started at the town and worked my way up on the new wide road, just my opinion, if i said anything they would probably tell me they always do it that way.
Just a guess but. By starting away from town all the low hanging wires will be removed on the first trip down the road by the cement trucks. If the replacement wires are hung too low they will get removed. Rinse, wash, repeat.
