Letter to the Editor

Letter to the Editor

And still no letters (apart from the previous two and this one)

I read with interest the letter to the editor from past president Graham Woodall and his sadness along with past president and my EC Harris colleague John Bacon in the lack of letters to the editor in the journal. I did write to the journal a few years back in response to an article about the conduct of adjudicators.

My first challenge was to find the email of the editor and deputy editor, found under CICES Publishing in a font less than four?

May I suggest we become bolder! Dedicate a page of the journal to ‘Letters to the Editor’. The first edition of this may well be blank, but persevere and encourage controversy.

For example some suggested topics could be:

• The scraping of the northern leg of HS2, was this legal when the HS2 bill has been passed by parliament?
• Smart motorways are they safe – or are other motorways just dumb motorways?
• Can we in the UK build anything to budget, time and quality?

Answers on a postcard!!

I do not have Graham or John’s email so I would be grateful if you could forward this to them to show solidarity.
