After five days in Jeziorki, I returned to Jakubowizna on Saturday morning, and have remained here since - I am lucky enough not to have to go into the office, so I shall avoid travelling into Warsaw while the Covid cases continue to soar. Working from the działka - especially on sunny autumnal days - is a pleasure. I punctuate conference calls, editing and responding to emails with walks around the neighbourhood, and I'm impressed at the pace of work around the railway, in particular the roads.
During my five days' absence, new asphalt has been laid on both sides of the northern level crossing, which is now officially and finally open. All that's needed is a new pair of barriers. Today, the asphalt received white lines, traffic signs are up and all looks good. Above all, there's pavement, so my walks between the działka and the station have become safer - although there's still much work to go before the underground passage linking Jakubowizna to the platforms (and to Chynów) is opened.
Below: new asphalt, new road markings - and new pavement. Looking towards Chynów station from the southern end of Jakubowizna shortly before sunset.
