Recent rains experienced in Madang in the last couple of weeks has compounded pothole woes along the main Modilon road into town.
Potholes have grown inside like small lakes right in the middle of the road and vehicles had to drive through it or avoid it be moving in snail pace to cross.
Vehicles are currently travelling in a long queue into town each morning as a result of those in front avoiding the potholes and moving at a snail’s pace as well as the pedestrian crossing at the Modilon Hospital.
A section of the road near the Emmanuel Lutheran Church had seen several road contractors receiving taxpayers money to fix the road, but the problem has not been fixed.
Town residents and motorists are fuming because bad sections of the road into town that were supposed to be fixed during the El Nino induced dry season. However, that has not been the case.
