During construction, many problems with the contractors arose, particularly with the excavation contracts. Many contractors couldn't live up to the term of their contracts and had to be dismissed. The unskilled labour used for these jobs was generally unruly and the Royal Sappers and Miners had to be used to guard the stores and closely supervise much of the work. Conditions were difficult. The men lived in crude camps in the wilderness. Many succumbed to malaria which was prevalent at the time as well as job site accidents.
