Amazing road fix in japan after earthquak
 

Once again the Japanese have shown us why they are simply amazing read the thread below and you be the judge, in my country work like this would take more than a year to complete, let alone that there was a huge natural disaster there. Let's start something where we say how long it will take for work like this to be done in our respective countries or cities, I live in Bahrain and something like this would take over a year to complete :p

Jalopnik - Drive Free or Die

that is amazing.

holy ****. if they repaired / build roads like that in the US, we'd be golden...

IM pretty sure that Valdosta GA is still going through road repairs 15 years after it started.

If you look closely, you will see amazing camara locations more than amazing road work.

If that was chicago expect it to take at least 3 months to fix.

That is shocking.

nice job. those roads are a lifeline so means more than just fixing potholes for sports cars. :icon17:

:rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:

somebody show FEMA this!

Wow. amazing.

In the USA, it would take 5 days just to schedule everyone for a meeting, and another 3 months to deal with strikes and the Union, and 3 more months for the budget to pass, and 3 more years to actually fix it. Once the road is fixed, we find flaws so we can sue the transporation agency for some money.

wow...when I first saw the damage I thought it'd take a long time for it to be fixed. 6 days? wow!

asians FTW!

It does look like the camera is placed right at the end of the damage in the updated photo, but it also seems to have new black top in that area. I believe they fixed it already though especially if that is a main road. 100 pot holes don't stop us from getting to our jobs so why fix it lol?

I may not remember this story exactly, but I will try my best to make it sound good. A semi crashed underneath a section of I-75 going south towards Bradenton, FL a few years back. They had to rebuild that portion of bridge due to damage. They actually had 24 hour a day work going on for I believe 3-4 weeks to get it done asap. That was the quickest I have ever seen a road repair in my lifetime.

nono, japanese FTW. i dont want phalen getting too excited. :tup:

Tea party might come and kill us if we spend any money repairing roads!

I was having dinner with my brother and father on Sunday and my brother was saying it would take 30 years to rebuild Japan to where it was before the earthquake. My father was saying that they would never be able to rebuild and it would never be the same country. I kept think they were both nuts and this proves it.

(I realize this doesn't mean they are back to normal, but they're obviously not wasting any time rebuilding.)
