I have learned today that 12 out of the 24 speed bumps/cushions installed earlier this year in the Berrylands Road / Harvest Lane area of Moreton have not been installed to the right specification, with some too high, some too low and incredibly some the wrong shape! Not to put too fine a point on it I am APPALLED that the Council could allow this to happen.
The Council tell me that the first 12 were inspected and were installed to spec, however the second 12 were only inspected, and found to be incorrect when the contractor asked for payment. Thankfully the contractor was not paid and he has been forced to return to correct the errors.
Whilst that is all well and good, I truly find it beyond belief that a contractor appointed by the Council failed to follow the detailed instructions given. While the contractor is at fault, ultimately the Council has to accept responsibility for this failing, and sadly the residents of the area have to be inconvenienced yet again, because of that failing.
