Sourlands Area Roads Updates

Not the sourlands (yet) but apparently it's chip seal season again. Hit a road 3 miles west of 202 that was just done.

Oh and got a double tap wasp/yellow jacket sting on my neck right before that road...

This was an unwelcomed move by the township. No one up here is happy about it.

Did they actually plow the stones off or was it just the stones getting pushed into the dirt, hence the need to re-stone every few years?
 
There is some work happening on Rilleyville on the Wurtsville road side.
flagger and 1 lane.
 
Rock Brook Bridge at Zion and Dutchtown-Zion roads is under a complete rebuild - since it is a historical bridge (built in 1825) they are completely restoring it. The project manager from Somerset County (guy in the black t shirt and green hat) was there and loves to talk about it! Said they are finding some 19th century artifacts in the bridge.. Won't be done until end of Nov earliest

Cider Mill
Mine (off Stony Brook)

I wonder how that bridge faired in its somewhat weakened state? I can image all of that wooden reinforcement getting washed away.
 
Hollow is open and back in good shape. Only one spot goes to one lane now (by the house right on the road where they are fixing the foundation)
