Charity residents calling for road upgrade

Residents of Charity and surrounding communities in Region Two (E/bo Coast) are expressing concern at the deplorable condition of several roads within the Charity/Ursara Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC).

Roads into the villages, including the main access road, are filled with huge potholes, and during the rainy season, these holes make it difficult for drivers to access the area or to continue their journey. According to residents, vehicles accessing the area were on several occasions stuck in the huge potholes.
Residents contend that despite several reports having been made to the Regional Administration, nothing has been done.
Only recently, Chairman of the Essequibo Chambers of Commerce, Deleep Singh, posted on his social media facebook page what he termed the “struggles residents/drivers have to go through.”
Singh said he also had made representation on behalf of residents, but, to date, instead of being upgraded, the roads have worsened. Singh has since called on the Government to intervene to have the regional administration look into the situation.
