Work on cabinet (update - work that isnt work)


[re: bobble_bob] [link to this post]
 
Update on the lack of progress installing a 2nd fibre cab. The works are due to finish tomorrow according to roadworks.org, and so far little has been done in the 2 week work window. This is what is meant to have been completed:

Install 10m of 4 poly ducts in Carriageway,Install 10m of 4 poly ducts in Footway,Provide, Renew or...


Day 1 of the works last month and some barriers appeared, day 2 and a 2nd fibre cab was erected and a workman was messing about with some cables near fibre cab 1. There was also a chalk mark between fibre cab 1 and 2 labelled "BT", which I guess is where the fibre cables are going to be laid. Since then nothing has been done and no one has visited the site. Seeing as nothing has happened so far today, and the works are meant to finish tomorrow im guessing they wont.

No excavation work has been done at all between the PCP and both fibre cabinets. So is it possible to install poly ducts without digging up the roads? And if not and the work hasn't been done, there any reason why it hasn't?

We had a new large cab installed next to the old large one 3 month ago and nothing has happened since. roadworks keeps showing work to be done but it never happens. Its now showing the same work for the end of this month, so will see if it happens then. not that i care as i have my connection. Just saying it can tyake time
