[@BakersConstructionServices]

😂

[@gliderider7077]

Crazy how all the bs red tape gets eliminated. The people who cry for all that are waiting on their rescue sooooo they seem to over look it

[@Wayzor_]

For a temporary road? nope.

[@donutlivesmatter]

Not when "deplorables" are called to action

[@MikeRichardson-b9o]

Thank goodness for all the battery powered road equipment......Thanks Joe and Cackles

[@alanmaiuro3573]

[@jonathanchase2821]

This is what I love to see

[@tedmaas3588]

Way to step up!

[@Beeman-uj7ew]

Awesome work! I am a semi retired contractor in California and my daughter wanted me to know if I could help her friend out with a environmental survey for endangered lizards in the path of the bullet train that did not exist for $30 dollars a hour 😂 our job would be to not find the lizards so they could work on the train,and this was 5 years ago and still not a train exists,but they have spent 100 billion dollars on the train so there is that.

[@DavidKessler-cp8zh]

Kicking ass love it 👍

[@maxfastest]

I would bet that all of the roads and bridges need to be raised at least 40 feet higher to attempt to avoid future floods.

[@jonproctor3739]

Maybe. Fact is though, Mother Nature takes what she wants. And if she wants it back after it's again taken from her, 10 to 1 odds she'll prevail .... sooner or later.

[@blessdstry]

Is this just a temp road? Did u guys have to survey the land to make sure your on NC property? Do you have inspectors look at it? Thanks for the info! I always wonder how this worked in a emergency.

[@BakersConstructionServices]

1: this will allow for the original road to be repaired, yes it is temporary 2:Because of a process called “eminent domain” the state and federal governments can use the land near roads for road building. 3: these will be built according to code and yes inspected

[@timphillips9594]

ITS IN TN.

[@tombergman5419]

Did they suspend the weight limits for you so you can haul heavier loads?

[@liveweyeractual]

Thank you for your hard work to restore access. What we’ve learned and continue to learn here, we must rely on the blue collar Americans and our fellow countrymen. The government has divided us all and when we all need help, they are nowhere to be found or intentionally standing in the way. People, love each other and support each other. We are all we’ve got when shtf.

[@markcohen4599]

LOL Government nowhere to be found? Who exactly do you think is paying for all the repairs? Thoughts and prayers?? Do you expect government administrators to be driving earthmoving machines and hauling in engineered fill? Also do you think local government positions are staffed by aliens? Robots? Lizards? Of course not. Governments ARE your neighbors. They are the people that live around you.

[@DH-uu5ps]

Listen up, citizen. You, and folks like you, are the ones trying to divide us when we should be working together. YOUR government is doing the best that can be done w/ the available resources. Your Republican so-called leaders in Congress vote down emergency supplemental funding for disaster relief EVERY GODDAMN TIME it comes up for a vote so dont come here blaming others for YOUR sins! Maybe that orange fool from Florida can come throw you some paper towels, ffs. This hateful misinformation and lies y'all are spreading is akin to sedition. Look it up. For the effin' record, taxes are NOT theft, you ignorant fools, they're an investment in YOUR country. In YOUR future. If you want more services, you better prepare to pay more for them. If you aren't willing to invest in a better future, dont expect one.

[@jonproctor3739]

The World Watches. Stop blaming your "Government" for all your division & hatred towards one another. YOU, THE PEOPLE have done an excellent job of that yourselves.

[@afriendtoo6971]

So many great stories of heroes getting it done. We need more of this and less of the screaming drama queens spreading lies about FEMA.

[@alangeddes268]

Where is this ?

[@BakersConstructionServices]

Highway 421 Between Mountain City Tn and Boone NC , Helene damage repair

[@moondog3162]

Is it opened yet??​@@BakersConstructionServices

[@Padoinky]

What is 421s??? Maybe y’all can provide some context?

[@Shelnjeff]

It's Highway 421 South...TN-NC...Hurricane Helene

[@daleolson3506]

The music junked another video 👎👎👎👎💩💩💩

[@Coalblack79k10]

They all want and like fossil fuel burning equipment when it’s needed don’t they

[@looneylonzo28]

what they’re doing is wasting money they just found out. What happens when you build a highway on the side of a scenic river why in the hell would you build that highway back in the same spot? Don’t move it over 100 yards move the highway completely which is that old saying the dumbest thing in the world is it do something the same way and expect a different outcome
