This is not a construction site. A couple of weeks ago, the Rockland PD got a phone call reporting a large pothole on Old County Road. By the time they got there, this is what they saw. They've since erected the fence, so I couldn't get close enough to take a photo down into the hole, but it goes down about 50 feet. There was apparently a tunnel connecting two old quarries that ran underneath the road. It collapsed, and within an hour or so this crater had opened up, stretching all the way across the road.
I just told the soon-to-be engineer Hubby "Looks like we should move to Maine- there's no shortage of work for you there!" ;0P
ReplyDeleteWOW! Scary how fast it opened. thankfully no one was hurt!
