In Australia, after the 20 permits required to fix/pave a road,
On top of that they need
- a person holding a sign saying "stop" or "danger" getting paid $100k-$200k per year
- another person holding another sign at the other end notifying you its the end of the roadworks also on $100k-$200k
- site supervisor, getting paid more to oversee the job
- 1 person doing the actual job
- 2 people standing around doing nothing complaining how underpaid they are
And penalty rates if there is any rain, late nights, actual people on the road!
