Re: Trouble at Mandorah jetty
To be honest, except for one contract, every job ive had done up here is way below standard. I don’t know if its just that we accept that the job wont be finished properly
I just think they do whatever they can get away with and hope it will just be ticked off as finished.

Re: Trouble at Mandorah jetty
Yes today they have upgraded from the basic plastic cable tie to a combination of now
Original stainless clips , stainless ties and bandit strap . If your over at all on the jetty have a look at the bases of the safety handrails , quite a few have rusted through with some not attached at all . Governments job is to upgrade , maintain and install public infrastructure as required but what are we going get a " new museum " .

In future, If anyone sees this type of happens going on, please take a photo and report it.
Littering/discarding materials into our waterways in any form is totally unacceptable.

Yes, you have to weld excess steel into pyramid shapes before it is legit to chuck it in
