Yet more mind-blowing stupidity and waste in Dorset

"A £100,000 mini-roundabout has been branded ‘a dangerous waste of money’ after it was made twice as big as it should be.

Engineers behind the road improvement scheme in Weymouth have admitted the roundabout at the centre of the project is the wrong size.

And to compound matters the whole road is being resurfaced next month wiping out the roundabout completely."

The facts that it was wrong, and will be ripped up anyway, are bad enough. But what I find most incredible is that they have happily agreed to a price of £100,000 for a painted circle and a couple of arrows! What is the paint made out of, titanium?

No wonder our councils are running out of money. Absolute idiots.
