For every cubic metre of tarmac laid....12 Oct 2007 15:21 GMT7
... I wonder how much time is spent pushing sticks with measuring wheels,
spraying yellow paint, taking photos, and making notes.
In some countries, it appears that gangs with the materials and the
equipment are empowered to do repairwork without all the bureaucracy of
