Potholes

Madang’s Potholes Worsen

Feeder roads need major upgrades. That’s according to drivers who frequently use them. One vehicle owner who asked to remain anonymous, said leaders who were ordered by the National Court Judge to work on the roads, have not done any physical work for the streets within the town.

Modilon Road riddled with potholes

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.

Potholes causing havoc in Kimbe

Junctions at the Kimbe market and Spirit of West, AOG and Air Niugini offices and Kisere are some of the worst road sections.
