The Maintainance Of Headway (1987) (1987) - Plot & Excerpts
He was surrounded by a circle of traffic cones, in front of which was a red and white sign: ROAD CLOSED. I pulled my bus up and spoke to him through the window. “Morning,” I said. “Morning,” he replied. “Busy?” “Will be in a minute,” he said. “I’m just about to relieve the pressure.” His van was parked nearby. He was from a water company. “Would it be possible to let me go past before you start?” I enquired. “I’m afraid not,” he said. “I’ve already put my cones out. Can’t really bring them all in again.” I counted the cones. There were seven in total. Meanwhile, the man raised a small iron flap in the roadway. Then he inserted his key and gave it a turn. Seconds later there were gallons of water gushing all over the road. Then it was hundreds of gallons. Quite a lot went over the man’s boots, which were laceups. Casting me an embarrassed grin he retreated to his van.
