Road stripper

I am not quite sure what this machine is used for, but I think that it is to strip old roads before a fresh layer of tar is added, but is just a guess. I do however know that this machine has something to do with roads, it (and its friends) has been driving up and down Main Road for the last few days, resurfacing the road.

And for the first time in history, this crew are working quickly. They are over half way, and the road  looks set to be freshly tarred well within the promised two weeks.
