Everyone loves to complain about road closures, like the contractor has any say or choice in the matter….😅 We are just trying to complete a project, and our team make it home safely everyday to their families. Our mission tends to look slightly different and some times comes with inconveniences… I completely understand how frustrating it is to turn a corner avoiding one road closure to find another orange sign impededing your day further… But please know, that all construction projects scheduling has 0 to do with fellas out on those projects just trying to safe thru the day to make it home their families. Please keep your fingers, gestures and unkind words to yourself and just entrust they are turning you around from a hazard currently… But most likely you will drive on the road that we placed in use, and not one comment will be made about how smooth the asphalt transitions are, or how effective the new drainage is with no sheet water on the road due to proper curb inlets with proper storm drainage, nor will they talk about all the upgrades to the Utilites under the road so we can ensure your drive isn’t impeded further in the future. It’s extremely hard to take pride in your work, when 95% of it is buried to never to be seen again. But we do it!💪 It’s all about perspective! https://lnkd.in/gsFVRxwy

Ventnor Eastern Esplanade Urgent Works. Isle of Wight Council (IoWC) contacted Principal Contractor (PC) Mackley in November 2022, to mobilise an emergency response after storms caused a catastrophic failure of the Ventnor seawall and promenade. A 35m section of seawall collapsed that supports Eastern Undercliff Esplanade, protects a diameter 825mm foul sewer and the Eastern cliffs of Ventnor itself. Losing the defence through further damage could result in significant risk to 1400 properties, a major environment incident, as the sewer was exposed, and most concerning, a risk to life. A multi-disciplinary team was assembled to find a rapid, collaborative solution, proportionate to the situation. Within days, Mackley installed rock bags as a short term emergency solution which considered the limited access, availability and size of materials.

In the aftermath of the recent tragedy at Francis Scott Key Bridge, we are reminded of the critical role that infrastructure plays in our daily lives. TIMOTHY GALARNYK 's "Inspector America" series highlighted the state of our nation's bridges, public water mains, seawalls, and sewers, emphasizing the urgent need for repairs and maintenance to prevent future tragedies. Access to information, known as "Freedom of Information," is crucial to ensure the safety of ourselves and our loved ones. We must learn from past mistakes and continue to invest in the upkeep of our infrastructure. Remember the tragedies at Mianus River Bridge, Sunshine Skyway Bridge, Flint Water, Merrick Valley Gas, Surf Side Condos, Francis Scott Key Bridge, and MGM Grand. It's up to us to work together to prevent more of these tragedies from happening. Let's prioritize infrastructure safety and maintenance to keep ourselves and our communities safe. #infrastructure #safety #maintenance #investments #Prevention @OunceOfPrevention #PoundOfCure CONSTRUCTION RISK MANAGEMENT, INC.

The PaveDrain system was used for a driveway, front walk, and porch in Lindstrom, MN. This project used 403 square feet of PaveDrain blocks to meet hard cover rules in this Minnesota community. A hard cover addition (i.e. new porch, room or patio) to your property means that you need to off-set with a permeable surface. The PaveDrain system easily solves this problem. Do you have a project that the PaveDrain system could replace your tired, existing stormwater practices? https://lnkd.in/gNzwPfeR #permeablepaving #greeninfrastructure #stormwater #civilengineering #pavedrain
