I went to Fethiye Belediye today to complain about the state of the roads on Sokak's 115 & 117, Alı Keçebaş and Osman Kazı all located near Angel Cafe. The senior engineer is comıng out to look at them and the proposal they offered is that they put sand/gravel on 115 & 117 sokak and road roller it in as they have a muddy surface. Alı Keçebaş and Osman Kazı have a dıfferent surface so we shall see what they offer for them. It looks lıke we eıther have new roads proposed for a future project or they have run out of money for new roads for thıs year. We shall see what is forthcoming. I was also informed that next year the roads will come under Mugla not Fethiye.

They came out the next day and put hoggıng down. If ıts stıll there after the raın we have had today I shall be very suprısed but you never know.

What's 'hogging'. Sorry I don't think it's in my Yorkshire dictionary :)
-
No its a southern term as builders would say down south we have just blinded the over site with hogging much like ballast but larger stones or smallish rocks.We used to put it down before concreting a base for an over site before building on it.I suppose they have laid it down on the roads to secure a better grip for traffic but with the amount of rain that I saw yesterday on the videos I would imagine that its down nothing to improve the roads.

Hoggin?

Haven't got much faith that they will get the roads back any time soon to the poor state they were in BEFORE the canal work, made them even worse. If that is possible! It is quite an extensive area, around here on the canal down to the Pelin Hotel, around the 'main' canal in areas still looks like world war one battle scene, and do not get me started on the state of the roads behind the seafront around the Calis Creek. If anything chances of getting this reinstatement work completed if it too is managed from Mugla fills me with even greater dread. >:( >:( >:(

Quackers has just informed me that they are restarting the road (and pavements) that were left half way - past the forest leading down from the Angel Bar/Cafe down to the Surf Cafe and other beach clubs. Yippee! Finally! Anyone going down near there, please post photos. Just can't wait!

Sounds promising!

Am I the only one who liked the roads with the odd bump in as it slowed the cars and trucks down and in doing so created less dust

When you live here next to one of these roads you will soon see why most people are so happy that they have started to repair them.I just hope they will do them properly as this is the second time this year they have put a top stone layer on and as of yet not sprayed it with tarmac. It all turns to dust and stones when it dries out. :(

For a few months we do live next to one of these roads, the problem I think is the fact that the roads has materials dumped and then spread over the surface not fixed down and as Mac says the dust problem continues. A side effect of this is the raising of the road surface, so that when it rains the water runs of into the adjoining properties, the road builders have little on no consideration to this fact, I would prefer them to block pave the roads with proper drainage. That won't happen as I hear the mayor is being staved of funds as he ain't in the party of power, so I hear.

Erm......Probably, yes !!

Best be thinking about getting out there too see this for my self I think

We'll be there soon - can't wait. Here are two pix sent by Quackers of the new roads. One part, near the Surf Cafe end of the road has black tar (or whatever) and the part near our villa appears to be impacted stone. I'm wondering if the intention is to tarmac this, or just leave it as it is here. Can anyone enlighten me?
