A major hazard on roads in the city after Saturday's rains are the road diggings for various works carried out in recent days and which were filled in with a haphazard manner by contractors with little stone pitching or asphalt.
All such diggings have become half-a-foot to ten-inch cuts in the road and as the vehicles pass, the cut deepens causing a major threat to wheel axles of the vehicles.
The road fillings done in most areas of the city have proved to be defective and need to be refilled again with proper stone pitching and asphalt.
Similarly, where roads had been dug up for pipe laying and other works, the rain water has filled the road diggings and work on the place is suspended pending the clearance of the accumulated rain water.
