“The Almanac
Issue date: May 31, 2000
Bumping along the El Camino: Cable company's trenching raises questions about future repair work.
By Alan Sissenwein, Special to the Almanac
The installation by a private cable company of fiber optic cable conduits under El Camino Real, which entailed digging a trench through the highway's left south-bound lane, has made scores of motorists' lives miserable. Nighttime drivers encountered closed lanes and traffic congestion, while daytime motorists had the bone-jarring experience of rolling over metal trench cover plates.”
