The road works on Nakaulevu Road that is located approximately five kilometres from Navua Town has been completed.
Fulton Hogan Hiways has confirmed that this road is used by close to 300 residents that include vegetable farmers of Rovadrau community
Fulton Hogan Hiways Taunovo Depot Supervisor Remesio Naqoro says that Nakaulevu Road is in a low‑lying area that has always been prone to flooding whenever there is a heavy downpour, so raising the height of the road helps the water to flow off the pavement and into the roadside water channels
He adds that since blocked drains also contribute to flooding incidences, we also cleared debris and excess vegetation from the waterways.
Deo Anand, a resident living along Nakaulevu Road says now that the road has been improved they won’t worry about walking during wet weather, and even flooding incidences, which is a huge relief for them.
