East End/Long Look roadworks commence
As such, motorists are being urged to drive with caution when approaching Fat Hog's Bay, as road resurfacing works are currently ongoing in that area.
Premier and Minister of Finance, Hon Andrew A. Fahie (R1), commenting on the initiative, said the works will make a difference for road users who traverse the area.
"I am grateful to our government, especially Minister Kye Rymer, who is an action man. I also extend my thanks to the team at the Public Works Department, led by Director Jeremy Hodge, for working diligently to make a difference for pedestrians and motorists," the Premier said in a statement via social media.
Gov't will work tirelessly to fix roads - Hon Fahie
The team is currently patching existing potholes and resurfacing the roadway.
Hon Fahie continued, "As promised to the Long Look/East End community, this Government will work tirelessly to have smooth roads throughout the Territory. We are gaining momentum and turning a new page. Soon the East End-Long Look Sewerage Project will be here, and we want our people to be ready for what is to come."
For 2020, Government announced that it will embark on a Territory-wide infrastructural development programme which includes road, water and sewerage networks.
The road rehabilitation and upgrade consist of drainage improvement, casting of edge of roads and resurfacing, including installation of retaining walls where necessary.

Always the same from the government, painting over cracks doesn't fix anything. The roads were better here 20 years ago. It's disgraceful.
Oh i see maybe sewage work not coming until final 6 months before next election. Common sense would dictate lay the pipes while the road is already dilapidated and then do one magnificent work in paving or resurfacing or rebuilding.
My God, We at East End ? Long Look continues to suffer in sewage. When will we be set free? when will promises be kept? I thought we were this close to getting the sewage problem sorted but by the look of thing it might be another decade when I form my new party run and win the election, but according to constitution this might never happen. Them who born here cannot get it done, who will???
