I wonder how long it would take Kirinyaga Construction

Now you see it...: This stretch of the Great Kanto highway was wrecked by deep chasms in the March 11 earthquake - but was repaired in just six days

Pics should be used in an introductory highway engineering class. The layer of bitumen is impressive.

Did the tree foilage to the left and right of the road sign, along the treeline, also sprout, bloom, and yellow in six days?

Just curious, because if so, wow, radiation is affecting things in more ways than is scientifically known.

Poeple see things in a different perspective:

Chairman of Board Kirinyaga Construction: 'You saw the Japanese road, what...''
MD Kirinyaga Constr. (very excited): 'Of course, of course! How could i miss that - yaani, these guys are really efficient - I mean, they actuary pocketed 10% of the contract amt in 6 days, while it takes us years!!!?? I am riry rily deepry deepry tasht (I am deeply touched)by this efficiency.Let's send a delegation there radiation ikikwicha. smile

I'm depressed.
So what is wrong with us? why does it take us forever to paint tarmac on the ground?
And that layer of tarmac is thick..wonder what the length of that stretch of road is..

That is good work. I am seeing many Kenyans being inspired by these proper Asian roadworks. Even when I was on Thika Road on Friday and Sunday, I saw big crowds that had gathered to watch the earthmovers do their thing. Hopefully this kind of thing inspires our generation of civil engineers

Wrong. It's a proven fake. You should really look again. How did the treeline grow in in 6 days? I can't believe that you don't see that treeline to the left of the powerlines guys!

Not to mention, there is not ONE reputable website or news organization reporting this. Not a single one. And Daily Mail is a tabloid rag.

Open MY eyes? Six days, under duress of one of the largest emergency and recovery situations in the history of their country... LOL Laughing out loudly ...I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you both. I surely hope that you are more analytical with your stock picks. d'oh!

@jason, it was a 150metre section only. And for a highway, that means its an important road. And we all know the efficiency of the Japanese. While you wait for a reputable website, its news is all over the internet. And who proved that it was a fake? You?
