Dear Editor,
Please refer to the letter in SN captioned ‘Large hole in Kitty road,’ and dated December 21, 2010, which highlighted the situation with the road on McDougal Street, Kitty. We sincerely thank Ms Jennie Charran for her interest in that matter.
We are aware of the problem. A few weeks ago, a culvert which provided support to the road in that section, collapsed. That combined with the heavy flow of vehicular traffic to erode that section of the road. We could not repair it then because we had neither the money nor the appropriate supplies. However, the Ministry of Works has been kind enough to assist us with a supply of culverts. Therefore, we are now in a position to fix that portion of the roadway. The City Engineer has advised that repairs to that section will commence on Monday, January 3, 2011.
We regret any inconvenience caused.
Yours faithfully,
Royston King
Public Relations Officer
