DEAR EDITOR,
There are two major concerns that we the residents of Ann’s Grove-Bee Hive, would like to highlight to the relevant authorities.
Firstly, the main access road that leads to the villages of Bee Hive, Clonbrook, Ann’s Grove, Two Friends and Dochfour, is in a deplorable state, and is in dire need of urgent repairs.
This one road services five villages and countless vehicles that traverse it on a daily basis.
There is a section which is approximately two hundred yards from the public road which is so bad, that drivers have to navigate with extreme caution while getting in and out of the community on a daily basis.
This section has a hole nearly two feet in depth, and it is getting wider and wider every day, because when it rains, a lot of water accumulates, and drivers have no other option but to drive through it.
Now that the rainy season is at hand, it will only get worse if urgent repairs are not done.
Secondly, the compound of the health centre was recently cut, after its vegetation was overgrown at a frightening height.
Now with the rainy season in progress, the grass and the wild eddoes are once again very high.
We would like for the authorities to try their best in keeping down the growth of these vegetation, and not allow them to reach the previously unsettling level.
As a health care institution, we expect a clean and safe environment for our citizens.
One suggestion – If the health ministry could afford to spray that facility once every six weeks, it will surely kill out the roots of the long grass, and wild eddoes. Fitzroy Hughes
