Under Construction

Route 6A between the Barnstable/Yarmouth line and Barnstable Village is a dire stretch of potholes and cracked asphalt. For several springs in a row, they've been patching things together with spit and gravel and the whole mess falls apart again the following winter.

This year they're really doing it right. Major patches of road have been scraped down to the sublayer, new asphalt is being put down and the work seems to be moving pretty quickly.

The current road delays are a bitch, but I'm looking forward to not wondering if my car will make it every time I drive to the Dolphin.
