Dodging Cars

I work on the third floor of an office building that overlooks one of the busiest streets in town. Today I heard this banging sound and looked out the window. This man, I’m thinking is a city employee, was trying to get the cover off a hole in the street, without cones. He would bang a few times, and then get out of the street to let cars pass. 
This went on for about 5 minutes, unfortunately I only caught the last few. Sorry about my dirty window, had to be all stealthy.
Then for the next 20 minutes or so he stared at the water in the gutter, there was a sprinkler head behind him in the landscaping. I'm thinking it was on last night and filled the gutter with water, but it hasn't evaporated yet.
