Publicly Working on the Coast Highway

Ah, dreams...someday...

...sigh...

Just a quick point counter point..

Anyone keeping score knows that there's been, continues to be, a series of volcanic eruptions in Iceland that have a lot of similarities with ours.. mantle plume sourced basaltic lavas that erupt episodically.. and has been doing so in a location adjacent to a geothermal power plant.. and across a main thoroughfare.. as I said similarities..

Except the folks in Iceland don't mess around when it comes to setting their infrastructure to rights. For instance.. the point of this thread.. a road left still yet to be reestablished more than six years after it was inundated.. compared to this report in today's Iceland Monitor..

Building a new road through the glowing lava

The construction of the new Grindavíkurvegur Road has begun. Contractors began work on it at four o'clock yesterday. This is the fourth time this section of road has been laid over lava since the eruption started in November last year..

I think we’re nearing the point where someone should point out much of the disagreement on this thread was caused, yet again, by the mention and existence of PGV several pages back.  They’re causing far more than just imaginary physical health issues now.

What exactly are the health issues that PGV is causing?

Thanks for sharing that comparative. I often wondered why the county drags it's heal on these matters. Still molten lava flows are a fairly safe workable medium with heavy equipment. There's really no need to wait years to replace inundated roads.
