Samuka Town Residents Demand Urgent Road Rehabilitation After Years of Neglect…
Residents of Samuka Town in Montserrado County Electoral District #11 are renewing calls for the urgent rehabilitation of their main road, citing years of neglect and deteriorating conditions that continue to affect daily life and economic activities.
The road, which serves as a vital access route for the community, has reportedly been in poor condition for more than five years. Large potholes, poor drainage, and persistent flooding have made transportation increasingly difficult, particularly during the rainy season.
According to residents, vehicles frequently struggle to navigate the road, leaving many commuters with no choice but to walk long distances through muddy and unsafe conditions. Chairman Edward P. Smith of Sorbate Hill Community described the situation as critical, emphasizing that the road's condition creates significant hardships for residents, especially women, the elderly, and drivers.
Community members are appealing to District #11 Representative Richard Nagbe Koon, the Ministry of Public Works, and President Joseph Nyuma Boakai to intervene and ensure the road is rehabilitated. They believe that improving the road network would enhance mobility, boost local economic activities, and improve safety for residents.
