Building work is below par

Where does Southend Council get its builders?

The latest thing I have read is that the new cafe in Warrior Square is unable to open due to ventilation problems.

This follows on from the shop under the new pier entrance, which has never yet been able to open because of building defects, the lift which links the seafront to the Royals area, which had various problems when first completed, and the cliff lift, which wasn’t able to operate for a long time after its refurbishment.

A vast amount of money is spent on these projects, so one would at least expect them to be done properly.
