NWA and Those Sink Holes!

 

The intersection of West Kings House Road and Waterloo Road.

Two potholes indicated by the yellow circles on Waterloo Road and West Kings House Road in Kingston have existed for months.  They fixed the pothole on West Kings House Road and the other one on Waterloo Road is being fixed. Many vehicles have dropped in these sinkholes. I lost a part of my car which will cost JAD6,000 to replace. You can imagine the cost to those motorists whose vehicle front ends have been damaged. 

The NWA needs to tell us why potholes cannot be fixed before they become massive sinkholes. The money used to pay Stephen Shaw to talk on the radio could be used to correct these roads promptly. Talking does not fix the potholes!

The intersection of Washington Boulevard and Red Hills Road.

We have two more sinkholes where Washington Boulevard intersects Red Hills Road. These are indicated by the yellow circles in the picture above. These sinkholes negatively impact the flow of traffic in the mornings. What is the cost of these sinkholes to the nation in Kingston? Cost in terms of gas, time and damage done to vehicles.

I am convinced that those people at the NWA do not care. These challenges make it difficult to live and enjoy life in Jamaica.

Note: Water is running below the surface of Waterloo Road at the  Waterloo Road pothole. After the area is fixed,  the sewer could seep onto the road surface.
