Although grinders are the preferred method of smoothing out bumps and changes in slab levels, sometimes tree roots can cause big undulating cracks that can’t be fixed that way. So the Bobcats lift the slabs off and new concrete gets poured.
As an aside, we can’t help thinking that whoever manufactures these orange cones, known as witches hats, has a lucrative venture.
I LOVE THE NEAT, WELL KEPT, AND CLEAN COMMUNITY. IT DOES LOOK LIKE PEOPLE DO THEIR PART IN TAKING PRIDE IN THEMSELVES. THE TREES GIVE A SENSE OF HOME FEELING.
Waikanae has that atmosphere indeed; the nicest town in the Wellington region!
Last time I checked each cone costs we taxpayers $35.
There must be about $6,000 worth in this scene then.
