Can somebody please help the residents of Archer Street?

Mar 20, 2018 Letters

DEAR EDITOR,
Residents of Archer Street – that runs between No. 2 and Cumberland Villages at the head of East Canje – are pleading on the relevant authorities to assist them with a street that can be called passable.
On the hottest day, the street is always filled with water. According to residents, the street has not been rehabilitated for close to 10 years. The more than almost 100 residents that live in the street are pleading with the relevant authorities – including the Ministry of Public Infrastructure, the Regional Administration and the Neighbourhood Democratic Council – to assist them to have a better life.
Even if it doesn’t rain, the holes are so big they resemble craters and are so filled with water that the residents find it very difficult to use. I reiterate that the street – which is joined by Bristol Street and leads to Health Centre Street – is always filled with water.
The drains have not been dug for years and residents are at times confronted by reptiles. Can somebody please help the residents of Archer Street?
