Shipping Containers Coming To Fargate

I wonder why  ?

They've discovered brown asbestos in the area so need a specialist to deal with it - gonna take weeks which is absolutely correct time frame

Is that true? Where is it ?

It's in the drainage run off apparently, one of the contractors told me it's the worst she's ever seen

Ok thanks , although I’m very sceptical as all that paving is pretty modern

You wouldn’t necessarily replace all the drainage whilst repaving though - so it’s perfectly plausible.

  You could and a lot of it would be exposed when they prepared the base

Would it? I don’t know.  Depends how deep the drainage is?

Drainage run off is not very deep . The only thing I can think of is that it’s the old pipe work for the old Goodwin Fountain but surely our great council sorted that out when they demolished it.

It will probably open at the same time as the Christmas “market” and someone will pretend that was always the plan…
