They ought to repair it strictly using non union shops

That would probably cut the cost of repair also.
Years ago we did a project on the GW Parkway in Virginia.
The roadway had weathered curb and we had to make ramps across the median to transfer traffic from the workzone.
Upon completion, the grass etal in the medians had to be restored but one of the ‘problems’ we had was trying to match the existing curb with the old.....
“Common sense” does NOT prevail in circumstances like this.
We had to go to court to get our money as the Govt tried to make us make the restoration match the curb that had been there for 40 or some years....
Aesthetic issue? Or were they worried that there would be an uneven curb resulting in pedestrian hazard?
