The Fiji Roads Authority is raising concerns after a Hot Spring Hire Services Ltd drainage excavator was vandalised on Saliadrau Road in Namosi last Wednesday

FRA is calling on people to be vigilant and report any acts of vandalism on the road assets to Police.

FRA Chief Executive Officer Jonathan Moore says the two side glasses of the excavator were broken and stones were found in the operator cabin.

Moore says these acts of vandalism are malicious and unacceptable as it is associated with costly repairs and the damages will only slow down road works.

He said the matter has been referred to the Dada Police Station.

Earlier this year, a Grader Dry Hire was severely vandalised on Nakorotubu Road in Rakiraki, a Grader on Lewa Road in Ba was also stoned and its electrical conduits cut to pieces and a heavy equipment roller was set on fire in Rewa.
