Down the south side of Benson, from Tyee to South Beach, someone has painted blue and orange stripes on the shoulder of the road. The blue stripes are a particularly attractive color in this setting. Here it is:
And what does it mean? I think the blue stripes are indicators of water lines and the orange stripes may be phone lines, and the painters are communicating some important information to somebody who might be digging there. And why would they be digging? Perhaps to restore the walking path along the shoulder. That work was scheduled to be done after the Tyee road repair. And it looks like it's about to get under way!
The walking path was established some years back, but then it was never maintained and the endless growth took it over. Hope maintenance is part of the budget this time.
Update: And there they were, from the Whatcom Co. Public Works Dept, first thing Monday morning, scraping and filling. Starting at South Beach and then down Benson to Tyee.
