Big news. The deep sinkhole around the Telstra pit next door is finally getting fixed - three years after the plastic board was bolted to the ground. Nice bloke doing the fixing said that Telstra has QUADRUPLED the number of contractors hired to fix problems, and increased the managers that allocate/organise fixes from 7 to 26!!! Apparently if you SnapSendSolve a problem it'll be done within a week - faster if someone has tripped or fallen. I will be very interested to see if this outbreak of efficiency lasts.
Hopefully somebody eventually fixes all the “temporary” yellow plastic board coverings on High St. they have been there since before Covid from memory.
