		<description><![CDATA[The condition of a countries roads is no laughing matter as we are looking at over 50 years of neglect in some areas.

 Not as if the money is not there, as our roads  are getting beyond all reason caused by heavy rains  i am sure you are aware that the pot holes are getting deeper.

   The Government ministers travel the roads ever day, they are not blind . Going up the ladder serves  no gain.

  It is under- strand- able  regarding all the  public grievances from all those who drive too and from work every day, the damage done to vehicles steering  is far from being  amusing .

 TRIANGLE  DRIFTER what you say here is not fair to Government and workers serves no gain   ,   the go ~ahead has already been given.

       The men  are controlled by the speed of the machinery  that the men have been given and  travel at a standard speed,  we  can&#039;t ask for more , as the project is not a rush  type of work. The guys are on their feet all day.

 Please may i ask for center lines  to be applied  where. practical and taking in consideration  the  weather and  my i say who ver does those  lines and zone markings are to be commended, as they  make  a big  difference  for safe driving  especially at night .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blah, blah, blah. Nothing but excuses. 

Why are there not a couple of trucks equipped with an air compressor, to blow out loose material in potholes, asphalt to put in those holes, and a pounder to pound the fresh stuff in, sent out every day to deal with the potholes?

Two trucks, four guys should do it. Seen two man crews doing it on US highways. Some don&#039;t even pound it in. Traffic does the job.

But no, this would be too much for W&amp;E. They would need to send someone out to identify the potholes, come back, have some meetings about them, schedule the job, arrange for people with a supervisor to do the job, hope that it is not too windy on the day, get onsite and discuss it some more, have at least 8 men for the work.

Option #2: Hire a private contractor to do the job and get it done in far less time and drama at a fraction of the cost.]]></description>
