Aug 6 2017 - It doesn't look like much now but Autoroute 10 used to be an ugly elevated stretch of highway heading towards Nun's Island.. it's been torn down and is being transformed into a grand urban boulevard styled on La Rambla in Barcelona. A grand entrance to the city. It stretched for several blocks and will be a park with artwork, sculptures, a playground for children and public stalls with events.. sounds like a good idea. It's quite far from downtown though but with Griffin town on the left and Place Bonaventure behind me there should be enough people to come here. If it even comes close to the beauty of La Rambla it will be incredible.

SR 20 from the Coupeville ferry terminal to SR 525/East Race Road in Island County is part of the 2018 resurfacing project. Whidbey Island travelers who use this route or take it to get to or from the ferry terminal should be prepared for delays of at least 30 minutes while crews work on this nearly 4 mile stretch.
The refurbished stator for turbine five at Snoqualmie Falls Plant 1 is carefully lowered into the cavity on February 15, 2013.
The "stator" is the stationary component of a turbine, while the rotor is what rotates when water passes through it.
Because of extremely tight clearances around the stator, crews used ropes to stabilize it.

Two miles of SR 20 between Marblemount and Newhalem will get a new surface in 2018. Road repair and crack sealing will be done before a new surface layer is added to this Skagit County highway. It provides local access, as well as a route across the Cascades and into North Cascade National Park typically during the spring through fall seasons.
A one mile stretch of SR 530 through Arlington is included in the 2018 project. This area between SR 9 and Twin Rivers Park is a very busy stretch and we'd expect delays to be significant during work in this area.
Two sections of SR 11/Chuckanut Drive will be resurfaced in 2018. One 2 mile stretch is south of Oyster Dome while the other is the area between Teddy Bear Cover and Fairhaven.

Most people would probably not find this interesting...but, I am periodically shooting the progress of this overpass construction project. I think it is projected as a $600 million project. YIKES!
Redvelopment continues at the Snoqualmie Falls Hydroelectric Project. This is the view from the cage that safely raises and lowers workers to and from the plant one cavity where the generators are housed, 260 feet below the surface. Construction of an elevator is planned for a later date.

After a scattered box of course thread drywall screws results in 6 flat tires on four different vehicles on the job site, it seems all hope of meeting another project deadline is lost.
Don't worry, Bridgestone Mobile Tire service has come to save the day.

Brian Gentry, PSE manager of community engagement in Skagit County, hosted the community event and invited local customers, community members and public officials, including Mount Vernon Mayor Mayor Jill Boudreau. The new substation should improve the reliability of electric service for homes and businesses in the growing neighborhoods of east and south Mount Vernon.

I had planned to visit Bray at least twice a year but I failed to maintain this schedule which is a pity but to be honest, with one exception, not much has changed since my last visit. The flood defence project is the exception because the is no doubting the fact that progress has been made since my last visit but considering that it started back in 2012 I am sure that many locals are less than impressed.
The River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme is one of the key capital investment projects by Wicklow County Council and the Office of Public Works (OPW) with an investment of €40 million.
Works on site have been ongoing since 2012. The main contractor was SIAC construction Ltd. who were on site for two years before the company went into examinership. The contract was terminated by agreement following conciliation resulting construction activities effectively being suspended since November 2013.
Wicklow County Council is now continuing the construction with Tom Foley Management Ltd taking on the role of Construction Management Service Provider and back in July 2014, works recommenced on the River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme.
To date a number of stages have been completed or are ongoing but unfortunately I do not have exact details. However, my photographs may give you some idea as to what has been accomplished to date
The original purpose of the scheme was to protect the town of Bray from flooding from the River Dargle. The Works consisted of the design and construction of flood defences, river widening and regrading along the lower reaches of the River Dargle. The works extended over approximately 3.3 km of the river from the N11 Bridge to the DART Harbour Bridge. The flood defences were required to provide protection against a 1 in 100 year fluvial flood and 1 in 200 year tidal flood. The Works also included the design and construction of 7mx4m culvert adjacent to Bray Bridge, the only vehicular bridge in Bray Town [I did not know that], to act as a fourth arch to the bridge.
The Scheme comprised of a variety of flood defences including construction of new sections of earth embankments, demolition and rebuilding of river walls with extensive stone and timber/timber-type facing, channel excavation and regrading, and river bank strengthening. A range of landscape treatments in and adjacent to the river are proposed to mitigate the impacts of the scheme on the local environment along the river corridor.
If anyone from Bray wishes to comment please to do so.

On April 25, Mount Vernon community members gathered at the new Blackburn substation for a celebration and information session. The new substation, with capacity to serve about 4,000 homes and businesses, also was built to accommodate future growth in Mount Vernon and outlying areas.
