In the centre of Cabarete, I presume it was Edenorte installing a new huge pole which I watched with interest whilst say in the traffic queue which could not move either way. On this occasion there were Policia Nacional trying help so as not to create total gridlock.
I watched the huge machine on the enormous truck straddled across more than half of the road put there screw type thing into the ground to remove the tarmac and the dirt underneath in order to make the hole where they planned to place the new wood pole. I also saw that they obviously got the trajectory wrong the first time so had to retract this big type screw thing, get all the dirt away from it via man with shovel and start over again a few inches away.
If it had not been so entertaining and I had been in a rush, it probably would have been less amusing..... anyone else get caught up in this?
(Makes me wonder also why they do this right at the busiest time in the middle of the day!)
