Following weeks of complaints about potholes on the Central Corentyne Highway and poor repairs, the authorities yesterday began patching sections of the thoroughfare.
Residents and road users in Region Six had been calling on the authorities to fix the potholes along the Corentyne Highway as they believed that if left unattended any longer the potholes could possibly result in fatal accidents as vehicles were being damaged.
Bushlot, Corentyne resident, Jay Mobeen in an interview with the Sunday Stabroek had called on the authorities to “fix it before somebody dies”. According to him he has made several attempts to contact officials from the ministry however they had all remained tightlipped on the matter.
