Luckily, I was on foot when I took this picture at around 7pm, but my head was on a swivel as it usually is around Safeway. My understanding is that some of the big Eucs that are still standing are housing nesting birds. When they leave, so will the Eucs. Southbound drivers are going to miss them in the morning, and northbound in the evening, when they are gone. I do wish the contractors would get on with the stump grinding instead of letting the corpses just sit there. In fact, I wish they would just get on with every aspect of the project. After the initial surge of activity things have slowed down dramatically.

    I drive ECR and with all of the areas blocked off, I rarely see anyone working! How hiring more crews to get this job completed?

    I have not seen one of the bright green contractor trucks in weeks. I swear. Not one.

    I suggested to Michael that they have more than one crew at a location. For example, when they closed a block to pull down the trees, one crew could have started mid-block and another at the end of the block-both could then work in the same direction safely. But he assured me that Caltrans wants to complete the work just as quietly as we do. I felt reassured.
