Driveway progress [emoji5]
I got a list from the county level DOT for people who do work like I need, which includes two contractors in our town (permit will be a State thing, but I always try to go for a local contractor).
One local has already come by, given a verbal on the cost to do a temporary fix that will be full heavy load bearing, no problem using it for months (structurally okay even for years, but we do need that culvert replaced). The temporary fix would be done this week, permanent in the May timeframe (normal construction season).
A second contractor should be by this afternoon, and the other in-town contractor will hopefully be in tomorrow.
The first local sounds like he knows the ropes, got a thumbs-up from our local Town code enforcement officer (who is known as tough on contractors). Price was a shrug, a bit more than I hoped, but the delta is because of doing the temporary now, and he has thoughts on things to help bring down the cost of the final fix (it's based on how cooperative the local state permit person is). He would handle turnkey of the permit part, a big plus.
