Quite astonishing for a brand new construction. Someone is in trouble!

I've been watching the progress of the build and it's something they were well aware of with Llang ORourke saying all the drainage below the roof had not been fully connected.

With just a few days before handover though, you'd think it would haven been sorted!!

Well it's built in a dock so at least there is somewhere for the water to go!

Ha! Only cost about £800,000,000, you’d think they would have spent a couple more quid on a few plugs.

Great post for X attention but it's hardly like a new build hasn't leaked before it's finished before.
I wonder what damage has been done below & how it's set the job back though.

More leaky than their defence.

I’ve worked on stadium projects like that one and you would have temporary rainwater outlets to manage the water until the permanent was connected. Not impossible that a bunged permanent outlet that wasn’t fully connected became “unbunged” somehow.
