dark man said "Only in Brandon will they do something like blocking a main road into and out of the city. Over and over And over
The number of times that this PLUG has been put in , you would think somebody would have the smarts to design a way to make it permanent and still allow traffic to pass over.
The cost of putting in the PLUG and removing it ????????
Who pays for that ? "
The cost of the plug is born by the city, in order to protect the city.
The cost of rebuilding the road to flood-proof standards as suggested would be born by the province, as both are provincial roads, ergo provincial responsibility.
Thus the reason why there hasn't been a long-term solution.
