Dangerous potholes on Agriculture Road

Jun 06, 2016 Letters

Dear Editor;
As a concerned resident and tax payer living in Agriculture Road I am concerned about some issues on this road that leads to the Guyana School of Agriculture and NAREI. Not very long ago, I saw a new road built in NAREI compound. In front the gate the length of that road is approximately 200 meters long.
What bothers me most is those who came to build this road left three huge holes on the road just in front the bridge. They also left another three bigger pot holes in-front the Guyana School of Agriculture’s bridge just a few blocks away from the NAREI gate.
Those who building roads came to build a road in Agriculture road on their way in the road of about two miles long they left over thirty pot holes some huge and some smaller; on their way out they just left all these holes and they are the road builders. They just put a blind eye to this road because of their personal laziness and incompetence.
I guess the administrators at NAREI didn’t reminded them of these pot holes because they probably felt that these guys building these substandard roads would have used their common sense and sealed these pot holes with some brick and bitumen but they were shocked to know these pot holes are left and gets bigger daily since the rains.
When it rains these holes are filled and drivers dropped into these holes that can lead to accident and serious vehicle damage even injuring the driver’s back and passengers because these pot holes are very deep.
Just a about ten days ago another set of road builders came to build a new road through market street that leads to the Mon-Repos and BV NDC. They were no better. They did the same. They left all these pot holes and just built the road through market street.
This Agriculture Road is just a few years old and it’s breaking up gradually because no one seems to care at the NDC or NAREI they just drive on the road. Most of our roads are badly damaged because no one is maintaining these roads. What I see in this country is we left things to be destroyed when they could have been rescued and repaired before
