Who is managing this road improvement program? I support the need for it, but last weekend I had the opportunity to get a closer look at what motorists have to contend with and the scope of what is going on is not adding up. I get the impression that those in charge are out of their depth, or those machines are working just to accumulate the hours; and the operators just go around ripping up stuff to keep the payroll going.
How about staying in one area and getting that fixed first? That way the inconveniences would be localized and the public would know which area to avoid; right now the public is in the dark about which areas to avoid and this is creating some nasty scenes. And then a spokesman from BEC has the temerity to inform the public that they are going to have to dig the roads up in the near future.
Who are these people working for and who is paying them? You get the impression that the road work is being done by the government and the opposition at the same time, with the public stuck in the middle.
Someone needs to inform these rocket scientists that there is only so much they can do, but if you are not paying the bill you will not have the needed perspective.
My fellow Bahamians, this road project is headed straight to the bank nearest you and your account will be impacted.
