This should help traffic move more smoothly, and will eliminate some of the confusion and congestion that comes when people try to turn left at our intersection. Hopefully, this also reduces the chances for accidents. However, I've already seen two fender benders due to the construction. People need to pay better attention.
The dogs don't like the construction equipment. Even though we are a road (and forest) removed from the highway, some of these construction vehicles rumble at a frequency that can be heard in our house. Our dogs have diligently warned us each time this has happened.
I'll be happy when the construction is over.
