LETTERS – Roadworks are a joke locally

The ongoing and apparently never-ending sewage works on Boston Road, Holbeach, are a standing joke locally.

I have just seen on Facebook that the total cost including all the failed remedial works prior to the current ones now total £2m.

This together with information given to me by a worker (on site) that they had been told to reline the sewer the incorrect way and now all this work needs to be redone (adding to the cost and timescale).

Obviously I do not have the ability to check out and verify these statements.

It seems to me that the waste of money, the incompetence of the management and the disruption to residents in Boston Road (not me thank God) is worthy of the nationals.
