Hi Chris,
It's a fair point you raise, but it's a 2 way street, contractors would be
operating off diagrams which the carriers need to keep up to date, if something
was incorrect and then they dug a cable up it's not their fault, but I agree,
there should be something to penalise cowboys.
The other issue is around what Bevan said about path diversity, with the
constant driving down of costs how many carriers are cutting corners and not
implementing redundancy and diverse paths when they should?, even if they
aren't paid for it diversity shouldn't really be an option for any carrier
network, or at least for those who care about their customers.
Regards
Paul

TPG have now had at least 3 major fiber cuts in the past 6 weeks. Some form of
policy, law, legislation, (whatever we want to call it) needs to be introduced
where if a civil contractor causes damage to a telecommunications carrier
network, then the business/company responsible is suspended from performing
civil works for 3 months, hit with big-time financial penalties, or where it
occurs multiple times then they lose their rights to operate as a civil
contractor. This might teach them to be a bit more careful.
Just my 2c.

I can confirm that there was a massive hit to duct by power utility. 5 cables
hit. I can also confirm that one of our suppliers (TPG) did not provision the
diverse circuit on the alternate path as ordered. In fact we became aware of
this issue a few months back when a similar outage occurred. Both circuits
went down when a single incident occurred.
The team notified TPG of the error back then and it's taken months to accept
and plan to correct. This was apparently planned for February 2018 which is
incredibly frustrating for Megaport and our customers at Polaris.
Unfortunately it ain't what it used to be...

Given the number of fibre spools and official looking people on the corner of
Jones road and Augusta Parkway in Augustine heights I believe they found the
break.
