-engineers promise repairs over weekend
Residents at Kuru Kuru on the Soesdyke/Linden Highway are concerned about a gaping, seven-foot deep hole on the public road near Swan.
Residents say the hole is not only a hazard to vehicles traversing the area but also to pedestrians using the area. When this publication visited the area yesterday there was a piece of stick planted in the hole which is approximately seven feet deep.
At the top of the stick a yellow plastic bottle was placed as a warning to coming traffic. Traffic cones and old tyres were also placed at the site.
One resident who spoke with this publication said it is believed that the hole was caused by erosion.
Government Engineer Walter Willis told Kaieteur News that they he is aware of the situation and repairs have commenced.
Willis said early yesterday morning he received a telephone call from the Commander of ‘A’ Division who reported the situation to him. According to Willis, the Commander said his ranks reported to him that there was a hole on the road which is a major traffic hazard. Hence, Willis said his engineers were sent to the location to assess the situation and works are to commence to correct the problem over the weekend.
