Delightful. What a bodge job.
I see Paul Whitewick was asked for comment, I'm sure a few of us here have watched him and his wife's youtube channel and remember some of these old lines when they were running.

Be prepared for more of this. I passed 2 pubs yesterday, both of them were teeming with folks drinking outside in the gardens. Never seen that many outside either of them on a working day in summer. Is this furlough at it's best? (nevermind halfrauds profits selling bikes, going skywards)
Well, there is no money left.... soon "we" will have to help pay it back, they are not going to spend it on bridges no matter whether they are listed or not. There are millions waiting for treatment on the NHS. And there was hell on when the foreign aid budget was going to be reduced!! Sadly some good causes are doomed......
There is going to be a price to pay for all the recent madness including paying people to stay at home so they can go on the piss/holiday at the sea side/cycle tour the whole neighbourhood and beyond/ect ect ect.
Vandals like the bridge quick fixers.... may be going to have a field day with dirty deeds done dirt cheap.

Nothing to do with money, or the lack of it though, actual fix would have been cheaper than the bodge they came up with, so it can only be down to idiots in charge.

Reminds me of the mafia with government subbing out jobs to their building companies as a back hander to launder cash... maybe there are a few bodies in that fill?
I dont know if the most galling thing in this article was the difference in cost to fix this properly vs the actual cost to bodge it, the fact that they could have done something to stop heavy trucks using it cheaply too or the work itself.
