Paving Our Street - United Bimmer Community

There's some loud monster of a machine outside my window repaving our street. That thing is massive.

I'll get pics later, haha.

Prolly like the one that repaved my parking lot here at work. I was talking to the guy and he told me that that machine costs $800,000. It is a big ass tank style looking thing that moves about 15 ft / minute and lays down new pavement. Pretty bas ass machine.

Huge machines are so fascinating

could be a slab paver. fresh asphalt is dumped in front, the machine then drives over it, levels smooths ect. makes everything one solid stip of asphalt. but they normaly only use that on major streets

One of the city council women lives in my neighborhood, so we're always the first around here to get potholes fixed or roads repaved. Actually the roads around here are almost perfect. I know of like maybe 5 potholes within a 10 mile radius of my house.
