Contractor did not install 5G mast as planned

I've been watching a planning application for a 5G mast that three/ee were supposed to install, the permission was granted, and I even saw them appear on roadworks.org they were supposed to be installing a 20 metre monopole and cabinets.

I went to view the site as it's very close by, and there's nothing.

I have the diagrams they submitted to the council that includes a location marker and there's literally nothing there. No pole, no cabinets, just grass. Is this something that happens often? I would like to know what's going on now, but of course nobody will tell you. The council won't know probably, and three/EE won't tell you.

Obviously permission is just that, permission .. but it did appear on roadworks.org and signs were even put up (because it encroached on the pavement) but yeah, the contracts did nothing, and now i'm left wondering if they will ever put one in or not.

edit: whoops this was obviously supposed to be in the mobile category not fixed line.. can't delete it.
 
Could be anything that caused them to not do any work - incorrect tools, no H&S documents, wrong weather, undocumented buried services that need pre-work to resolve first.

yeah all possible I suppose. I've just never seen anything like it, apply for permission , setup cones etc, but then fail to even start it. I suppose they can do it any time they want until the permission expires. Frustrating to have come this far, then nothing. It's like when you take a day off for a parcel to arrive and it never comes.

The added combination of Christmas, New Year and another COVID-19 lockdown is another set to factors to consider.
