“ I may have to name this road after the hit song “ waiting in vain “ what else can say its been 25 years now”. That is what one Buddy Gutter resident told News784 on Sunday 12th March 2017.
The resident who spoke to us and wishes not to have their name publish said that the Buddy Gutter village road has become a nightmare for villagers, and an election tool for politicians.
“ We have endured many falls, many ankles being twisted”.
“ Over the years and its been 25 years for me, all the politicians from Horne to Charles I have heard it and never seen it, am done”.
Another resident told News784 that recently a young man riding a bike in the area fell and had to be hospitalised for something.
BRAGSA (Buildings, Roads and General Services Authority) they ” came here on many occasions we were excited, but after numerous visits, with measuring tape and other equipment, so much so I stop counting, we have all but given up”.
The residents also told us that Hon Daniel Cummings made an effort in the parliament to highlight their plight, but like every other idea brought by the opposition, it is brushed aside.
“ Something was started before the elections but as soon as the election was over it stop, that’s the way it has been,” another resident told News784.
