Pozor! crossing the street in a construction zone

One thing we love about living in Prague is that there is no "nanny state" mentality here. You are responsible for your own welfare here, and must keep your wits about you while
traveling around, as you can see in the following photos.


Our new tram tracks - scheduled to go operational Sept. 1.
We are so excited!



These tracks and accompanying roadways lie in between the Metro station and our street. There is a lot of foot traffic across this construction site, and the walkway has been temporarily moved more than a dozen times as the construction of the tunnel and the reconstruction of the tram lines and roadway on top of the tunnel went forward.
Note the ramp, and the proximity of the paving machines.



And the walkway is where now??


Hold on while we dump this hot asphalt!



Ah. There's the walkway.......
