If that person didn't either drive over or move cones and signs, it's the construction crew's fault, not theirs.
She tries to turn around as soon as she sees the workers. That should say enough.
At the end of the video, you can see the tracks come from around the bend. Can't see the end of the street so we don't know if there's cones or signs at the intersection
When my street gets done the community lets us all know.
They put signage at the entrance to the community.
We get letters.
They knock on doors.
They absolutely do NOT put cones in front of each driveway though.
It is usually a “we’re gonna start at X time and be done at Y time so park elsewhere for this period of time.
In suburbia, very similar to this community (except we have trees … god it’s so weird when there are no trees)
There should be signs all down the street on both sides warning about parking and driveway access from x time to y time as well. I see nothing.
I assume they lived on the street and the residents were ill informed
They allied this stuff to my street. They just applied it and said it only needs 15 minutes to dry and I was clear to go. I said well I won't risk it I'll go to the store for a few min. I came back an additional 15 min later and left similar tracks to my house.
Either the worker was an idiot or they prepared the material wrong. Either way at least I went slow enough to not get splatter.
