The Plan revealed

The Telegram reports on-line, unfortunately without the always-promising tag-line about reading more about it in tomorrow's paper:

The provincial government acknowledged today that it does not conduct regular inspections of structures on the Newfoundland T’Railway.

Last week, the province announced the closure of every bridge and trestle on the 900-kilometre-long T’Railway, citing a Transport Canada safety report.

Environment Minister Charlene Johnson said today the province does not conduct routine safety assessments of structures on the T’Railway, which is a provincial park.
“There’s no regular inspections, no,” Johnson said in response to questions from reporters.

When he opened his 2003 campaign headquarters, Danny Williams promised to "tear down the overpass mentality". Now we see the real plan; who needs to tear the overpass down, when you can just let it fall down?

After all, it worked in Quebec, and look at how autonomous they are.
