Today driving down 466 to get gas I noticed about 20 or more dump trucks coming and going down a dirt trail just off of 466 going behind the farms and across the street from thebridgeport of laurel valley gate. Does anyone know what is going on.?looks like the dump trucks are going into empty and leaving full of dirt.

They are going North on 301 and West on 42, 6 or 7 of them passed me this morning going to church, I was doing 60 in the 55 zone, and they passed me.......in a real hurry. I guess they were empty, did not see any on the way back.

I saw them too. If you look to the right about 1/4 mile before where the dump trucks exit, you can't see a pile of dirt where the trucks working. Not sure what they are clearing over there but there are several trucks hauling.

If you look onto the ranches/Morse property/Lord Lyle farms the dump trucks are going in the gate of one of the ranches on 466.

They have been hauling in dirt all day long for at least 2 1/2 weeks. For a while you could see several huge mounds of dirt, but now it appears they are spreading several out. Maybe filling in a swamp, maybe a training race horse ring, maybe a practice polo field, maybe an airplane landing strip, maybe to build a mountain higher than the Mt. Morse trash dump just off Hy 466A, maybe a ski hill and global warming is reversing itself, maybe a super giant sink hole. Who knows? Sure is a lot of dirt being moved.

All were filled with cash $$$$ from the Developer to various banks for deposit first thing Monday - hope they all fit thru the drive-in banking lane.
C'mon ---- somebody had to say it....

I heard that the build out is practically over for the dump trucks. So in order to keep everyone employed they they fill up dump trucks and move the dirt in one direction on one day and bring it all back on the next day.
I either heard that or made it up. I'm not sure. |

Then maybe they are digging a lake. There is no hill to level in that area more than 3 feet above common grade.
Maybe a new facility for the water ski club? ![]()

After watching them carry large trucks full of dirt out for over a week at about ten minute intervals I have concluded they are digging an ocean. That will be nice. ![]()
