Where are the barriers? We have a sinkhole on the corner by our house. We notified the city early last summer. They initially looked, but did nothing except put up barriers and then eventually placed an orange barrel over the hole. Now, some nine plus months later, the hole remains, buried under a mountain of snow. This all started while Randy was mowing lawn and the earth gave way under his feet. Once the snow melts, the city will hear from me. Again.
I agree there should be more barriers for this hazard. There was a sign on a tripod that said Road Closed do you think it is sinkhole season? There seem to be a lot of deep holes all over. Hope yours is taken care of too. Oh my.
This picture is a great puzzle to me. Great and sharp photo in spite of the mystery!
A giant hole in a side road where workmen had left it open. I was walking by.
Thanks for the explanation, Ruth!
These giant holes scare me. I’ve seen them in several places lately and they really scare me.
I wonder and See often love too.

Potholes, maybe? Or just forgotten construction project?
Yes Roadwork They forgot to cover it.
this picture could have been taken in Northeast Mississippi. We had so much rain two weeks ago. I thought about buying a boat! lol
Thanks Vicky
Looks dangerous to be left like that. Some poor pedestrian could be sucked into that black hole. 😯
Yikes! Earlier this winter a pipe burst on our street, and created quite the sight – but not nearly as “impressive” as this!
