More Repairs Needed On Shelly Bay Road
[Written by Don Burgess]
A sinkhole that was repaired last week must be repaired again after metal plates were placed on top of the hole.
The sinkhole on North Shore Road across from Shelly Bay Park previously had two metal plates covering it.
Last week it was repaired with asphalt, but on Friday, water could be seen bubbling out of a hole near the fixed roadwork. Today, three metal plates were covering the area.
In early April, a sinkhole appeared at 72 North Shore Road, 200 meters from the current road damage.
The area is known for the nearby Eve’s Cave, which feeds tidal salt water from the ocean to Harrington Sound and is 230 meters from the first sinkhole.
Bernews contacted Government for comment but had yet to receive one by publishing time.
All that and they said it would be repaired BEFORE Cupmatch!
