This photo, taken in February 2016, shows the flooding that was occurring in the Post Office parking area due to the repaving of County Route 6 last year.
Now that things are getting warmer, work is beginning on a number of projects in Huletts Landing. Over the past two days, the county installed a dry well off of County Route 6 to alleviate some flooding that was occurring in the Post Office parking area due to the repaving of County Route 6 last year.
A hole was dug on the side of County Route 6, near the Post Office flag pole.
The completed hole once the dirt was removed.
Great care was taken to see that the Post Office parking area remained open while the work progressed.
The dry well was brought in and lifted into place.
The final placement of the dry well.
Stone was added as back-fill to improve the drainage.
The almost completed work as of Thursday afternoon.
The county will return over the next few days to restore the paving and re-seed the grassy area. (Click all pictures to see larger version.)
