They would have been able to quantify the cost of a permanent 200ft structure just as they are able to quantify the cost of the temporary $6.5 million service for a written off asset .

This effectively means that it cost One Million U.S Dollars to remove a tender from a ditch and us poor people with our little computers are arguing about semantics
I cannot believe that we taxpayers are being made to watch whilst the rich play both sides as we partition ourselves to PNM/UNC. Does anyone who is in the know actually know how substandard everything in Trinidad is Internationally? Nothing works, everything takes forever, yuh can't dare get sick etc etc but man defending the indefensible with biased, uninformed and sometimes racist logic on these forums.

Who here have a tractor truck willing to take a drive up to that point with a forty foot low boy?That is with load.
Sub total = 1,786,000
VAT = 267,900
Total = 2,053,900
If however i am the best in the business and the competition is small, i'd really make some money
The insurance is actually a $1m bond.
Police for the 4 days is $40,000
Mark up is usually 25% of total quoted price
Mobilisation & Demobilisation - $ 500k +/-
RF should be twice or more for multiple mutli million dollar equipment up that road.

only the $150k mobilization matching estimates above,
"meals $65k"
it must cost millions just to feed them paving workers when they paving over a weekend

The water tender involved in an accident last November was so badly damaged that it should have been disposed of. Acting deputy chief fire officer Dana Roach made that recommendation in a November 29 letter which also recommended that a replacement should be acquired for approximately $2.7 million.
The inspection was to evaluate its serviceability. The team found damage to the entire rear of the appliance, damage to the water tank and severe damage to the crew cab and the drive train. On this basis Roach wrote: “In this regard the general consensus was that it was too costly to refurbish the vehicle as opposed to purchasing a new appliance for approximately $2.7 million.

Ministry officials yesterday told T&T Guardian that Cabinet eventually approved a revised price of $6.8 million for retrieving the truck. The approval, however, was granted in December—some weeks after the job had already been done.
