Motorist in Point Fortin who frequently use the Guapo Cap-de-Ville, Main Road are calling on their Member of Parliament to come to their assistance. Motorist are saying for the last five months the road is almost impossible to drive on and they are feeling it in the pockets as they have more car expenses.
One motorist who which to remain anonymous because of the fear of Political victimization says every fortnight drivers have to spend a minimum of five hundred dollars by the mechanic, while one other says this has been going on for a long time now, look around, not only here, but all over Point Fortin. Check the roads to San Fernando from Point man! we have the worst roads in the Eastern Caribbean and we have the Pitch Lake just a few miles away. All the money come from here and we are being treated like dogs, its either we too loyal or dotish. Southsidenewstt asked the motorist to elaborate on his statement, “we either to loyal or we to dotish”, he refused!
Southsidenewstt understands the Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) was laying an eight-inch water main along the Cap-de-Ville Main Road, to improve the water supply to the area.
Our reporter contacted WASA for a comment and we were told to contact the Pure Unit of the Ministry of Works, however no one returned our calls, we them sent several text messages to the Member of Parliament via WhatsApp which shows that the messages were read unfortunately up to news time there were no response.
