Actually, 'tis my son LOL, who is a Transport Planning Consultant, has to deal with issues on costings every day, even down to how much a road hump is gonna' cost. All our information is gathered from sources, just like we all google on here to find out further details on issues.

Seeing as you have touched on road humps.
Here in Darwen, loads of new humps have appeared yet there is no money to fill in the thousands of holes. After all a hole is just an upside down road hump, far smaller and thus would use far less material to fill it.
Road humps are supposed to be a traffic calming measure yet on Railway Road new humps have been laid on the road. Prior to the humps you would consider yourself lucky if you could get up to 20 mph let alone above 30 mph. What was the point???
