I came across this item on the BBC site and found it amazing that such a major project has been beset by such horrendous errors, and it goes on.

Wonder if it was the same management team as crossrail ?

Its been on the bbc several times over the years, I think there's even been a couple of programmes about it. Sounds similar to that ghost airport in Spain.

Just to add into this post, in some industries the statement "BER" stands for :

Beyond
Economical
Repair.

It seems this project has been plagued from the start, and will continue to generate problems.
