A Belgian company had to work on a bridge in <a href="http://www.world-today-news.com/the-corsicans-bring-back-a-draw-from-belgium/" title="the Corsicans bring back a draw from Belgium“>Charleroi (Belgium). The problem is, the company confused the structure with another structure that was hundreds of meters away. So she renovated the wrong bridge for 52,000 euros.
“Ah the dumpling”, as François Pignon would say, in Le Dîner de Con. In Belgium, a company worked… on the wrong bridge! A story worthy of the most beautiful Belgian jokes but not one as reported RTBF.
In Charleroi, a bridge crossing the canal belonging to the Wallonia region had to be renovated. A few hundred meters from the last one, another work, “almost identical” but belonging to the city. At the request of the Walloon authorities, a company carried out the work which included replacing the aging safety barriers… before they realized they had taken the wrong bridge.
Bills of 52,000 euros
“The dumpling comes from the company named by the Department,” said Eric Goffart, elected official of the city of Charleroi in charge of public works”, questioned by our colleagues in Belgium. free for the city of Charleroi which also needed to replace barriers? He did not really agree to pay for the work, “it is very normal for the city of Charleroi to pay for work that benefits him,” said Eric Goffart.
And for the area bridge? The infrastructure also benefited from the planned changes, with the company also carrying out the work originally planned.
