Road Construction

NC-540 is a new toll road going in 1000 feet west of our house, basically out the front door.  Because of the construction, the greenway we have been taking to Kelly Road park is closed through June, and we have a nice trail straight to the construction area in the back yard.  There's another park on the other end of the trail, but it's for team sports rather than a playground.

We went to the end of the sidewalk where we saw a crane, some pillers without their concrete yet, and the temporary construction roadway to help them build a bridge over the marsh.  They were working on the road today, on a Saturday.  We heard a pile driver off and on this morning and continue to hear construction noise, though it is not bothersome.
