Non-Believer Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) "The whole of the Sub-structure is cracking up......and if you just relay the surface in 5 years it will need doing again" The first bit was bollocks and much of the standard of what has been done elsewhere will need re-doing in 5 years anyway; if not before.

When they find a spirit level that works and sort this, I wonder could they take it to the Villa gardens where the paths become pools during any wet weather.

Ramseyboi Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I see they works on the crossing on South Prom Ramsey have been delayed by bad weather. In late October, and Ramsey South Prom! Who would have thought it? Anyone know if they are likely to put any road markings back on most of the roads soon since it will be dark by 5 next week? Some of them have been really dangerous in the wet evenings this week and that is as a local who knows the roads. Anyone who doesn’t know where the road goes could have real issues. I was in a car driven by a visitor recently and they were astounded at the lack of roadside markings, lack of reflectors at road sides, lack of warnings of tight bends (on NSL roads) etc. They can’t even do the basics right. The Patrick road had its markings scrubbed off in July and they still aren’t back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the ones from Governers to top of bray hill but dont get the reasons behind the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
