Chris I wonder if they are going to work north from the bridge now? I don't see the downside of working the road north from the bridge. The mess just north of bridge, would be great if I never experienced it again.

At any rate the rain of recent was badly needed.

Around the 17th August the road north was in decent shape. There had been lots of dry weather. Nevertheless, in their infinite wisdom the "Idiots That Be" decided to grade the road into a heaving mess of dust.

On the other hand, now that we've had a bit of rain (a week ago now) the road is a series of interconnected potholes and we see no road grading action whatsoever.

Furthermore, you have to wonder which Moron In Chief decided to pave the road going south towards the bridge instead of north from the bridge.

As one person, who is banned from the message board even though he/she is often right, has observed....the Inmates are most definitely in charge at the Asylum. It's hard to think of how this could have been handled more horribly.

The good news is.... there's lots of money spent on tonight's big political convention in Central Park. All in attendance will have a great time!

I drove up the road on Wednesday. They stopped just south of Capt. Morgan's and started again about Whites Sand through to El Pescador. I have been told there are a few 'right of way' issues.


There are stakes along the road just north of the bridge - this is a very unstable area - let's hope they get a good foundation before the lay slabs.

Maybe Tracker can fill us in.

"More than his share". You said it, I didn't.

They're laying out the form work for the road starting at the bridge. Excellent! Also, on Sunday morning they graded the road from the bridge through the end of Tres Cocos. It's a much smoother ride now.

You can see the "head" of the road heading south from the 2nd floor at Grand Caribe so there has been some good progress over the last few days. Weather looks like it'll be good for a few days yet.

I just sent photos and a little tale about a stuck truck to Marty for posting.
Use caution when on the dirt-mud areas and stay away from the "shoulders". These edge areas tend to be a slurry of sucking sludge.
