For months the footpaths on the western side of Civic have been nothing short of a disgrace. Paths abruptly ending dumping pedestrians across major roads, paths dug up and left caged off for weeks without sign of activity, weird dog legged diversions for walkers dancing in traffic.

But this morning on Alinga Street outside the post office things reached an new noteworthy low (pictured).

One would hope a smallish city state would be capable of better coordination.
