MANCHESTER The city council is suing the building and design team behind the controversial B of the Bang sculpture for £2 million.
The structure was commissioned to mark the 2002 Commonwealth Games but work is still needed to ensure that it complies with health and safety standards. Its costs have increased from £750,000 to £1.42m and it was due to be officially opened in July 2003.
Thomas Heatherwick Studio, Packman Lucas, Flint and Neil Partnership and Westbury Structures are accused of negligence and being in breach of contract.
