Driving in the snow and the roadworks

Argh! The city started digging up half the riverfront in early December. With all the snow and the freeze, the work hasn't progressed at all. There's not even a sign explaining the aim and duration...

The entire country rejoiced today, the sun came out after about a month of cold, grey, snow and rain. The start of spring? Even the Province of Liège administration building looks nice when reflecting the sunshine, despite the construction works.
