They said the road requires new focus entirely from the government; and that the axis requires coordinated services of LAWMA.
They stressed the importance of government based enforcement to ensure compliance from the neighbors in the axis. They said the people can be stiff-necked when they are told not to carryout activity that can block the road’s gutters and drainages as well as destroying the road; so the best way to make people comply and desist from activities that undermines the maintenance principles of the road is involvement of enforcement from the LCDA.
They further explained that maintenance committee was set-up when the road was commissioned but lack enforcement capacity which renders the activities of committee non-effective.
They also re-echoed the urgent need for clearing of gutters of the road; he said the joint CDAs will evacuate dirt and sands from the gutter while the government pick-ups the dirt and sands with truck.
They said, the joint CDAs doubtless require services of the LCDA’s environmental officers and/JTFs to enforce patronages of LAWMA in the axis.
