Urgent call to fix deplorable roads in New Bortianor
Dear Editor,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to the notice of the authorities and responsible agencies to the dire state of roads in New Bortianor in the Greater Accra region.
These roads, which serve as vital links for commuters, residents and businesses, are significantly deteriorated, causing immense damage to vehicles and affecting the well-being of various businesses.
The roads have developed potholes and have been rendered impassable due to the constant erosion during the rainy season
Anytime it rains, the area gets flooded and in the process cover those roads, trapping vehicles and endangering pedestrians.
In dry conditions, the dust from the area poses serious health issues for regular commuters and the community as a whole.
Those affected most are children and the elderly.
Residents have openly raised concerns about the dilapidated state of most of the roads in the vicinity, yet little to no action has been taken to address this dire situation.
Some already constructed roads are also beginning to lose shape due to lack of maintenance, affecting transportation and the local economy. It is hindering businesses and discouraging investment in the area.
I, therefore, wish to appeal to the appropriate authorities to prioritise concerns from the area with immediate effect.
The people of New Bortianor deserve better infrastructure to guarantee their safety, health and livelihoods.
I trust your esteemed newspaper will give this matter the necessary attention by publishing this letter to amplify the community’s concerns.
Thank you for the time and consideration. I look forward to seeing this issue highlighted in your publication.
