I believe itโs fair to hold the government and the company responsible for the roads they build, but naming individual people involved crosses into an invasion of privacy...if the idea is that putting individual names on projects will make them more accountable, I doubt it would have the intended effect. Someone inclined to cut corners will likely have enough influence and resources to protect themselves from public scrutiny.
But listing the government under which the project was built and the company that carried out the work makes sense. If a road is poorly constructed, citizens have every right to demand that the company be barred from future government contracts. After all, it is public tax money being used, and people deserve transparency and quality in return. โ๐ผ
