Motorists struggle with potholes in Watson Road

Residents say vehicles are getting damaged and pedestrians run the risk of being hit by passing cars

Motorists are unhappy about the state of Watson Road. They say that the potholes seem to be getting out of hand, posing a danger to vehicles.

One resident commented that the issue also affects pedestrians, as cars are always swerving to miss the holes in the road and could easily hit someone walking along. “Not to mention the damage caused to vehicles and the cost of repairs is very high. The municipality will definitely not foot the bill either,” added the resident.
