We have just had the run of multiple three way traffic lights in our village for full fibre to be laid although for the most part involving digging up footpaths. Not complaining too much about this as we are very shortly to benefit. I guess we then have to look forward to a round of same mid summer for the potholes.
Particularly annoying is the policy of adding tar and chippings to "repair" a road surface. This is performed very quickly, often a mile at a time in a matter of hours but with only the most rudimentary preparation and rolling in. Vehicles then perform the rest with multiple opportunities for chipped paint, followed sometimes with a road sweeper to collect the excess chippings on each curb. Most annoying though is lack of thought given to the already sunken manhole covers, worse with the raised surface
