Editor: Kudos to Chatham-Kent municipal workers Mike and Moe among others who repaired a broken watermain next to my driveway recently.
We first noticed the water gushing from the ground just after 9 a.m. My first thought was, “Oh, great, now the road, etc. will be a mess for days.”
Boy, was I wrong. The team arrived along with a backhoe. Determining that the cause was most likely a simple break, they started to work and quickly discovered that their diagnosis was correct.
After calling in a sucker truck to vacuum the water and mud from the hole, they had the repair finished and back filled by noon.
Their crew performed like a well-oiled machine. I was impressed!
