TIRED OF WAITING for Government to repair the island’s potholed-filled roads, a philanthropic organisation is stepping in to solve the pothole problem on one of the island’s busiest highways.
And, said the man spearheading the Aron & Christina Foundation, they have so far received the thumbs up from a number of businesses on the platinum coast.
Yesterday, Aron Truss threw out the initiative to “fellow Highway 1 users” in a move that would see the foundation partnering with C. O. Williams Construction to repave the seven-kilometre stretch between the Spring Garden Highway and Holetown, St James.
The initiative comes a mere three days after a large pothole, near Waves Hotel, in Prospect, St James, was blamed for an accident that caused a driver to lose control of his vehicle, collide with another vehicle and then strike and injure a 12 year-old schoolboy.
