    Bridges 24 & 25 are an absolute scandal. Heads should have rolled over them. For those that don't know, the decks are significantly higher than the originals. How such a failure of project management occurred is beyond my understanding.

    Heads did roll in that the civil engineer either resigned or was sacked. The official answer was resigned to pursue other interests.
    The track is on an embankment and there is not enough width to raise the level to match.
