MAJOR IDEA ON RIGHT LINES

For the past three days there's been a big hole in the tarmac close to the junction of St Helen's Road and Yarborough Road. Traffic lights have been installed, as the resulting roadworks are on a blind corner. Fair enough. But whose hole is it, if you'll pardon the phrase? I've driven past half-a-dozen times, in both directions, early morning and after tea, without seeing any signs to explain whether it's water, electricity, gas, telephone, council bosses (or someone else), whose ordered in the workers. Or what they are seeking to repair.
Only a couple of years ago, much the same thing happened only a few yards away, further along Yarborough Road. Essential work, no doubt. But if someone needed to get in touch with the folk behind it, how would they know who to ring?
John Major was an often-maligned Prime Minister, and there were many cheap jibes about his so-called Cones Hotline, under which members of the public could complain about lengthy roadworks. The idea was dropped, but it seems to me that he was on the right track. At that time, if I remember correctly, you had to put up signs indicating the firm carrying out the work. Which meant you could ring if you wanted information about how long it was going to take or wanted to moan.
The current repairs are no big deal but it would be appreciated by those drivers who use St Helen's Road regularly if we had some idea who's working and how long it's all going to take.
