PHUKET: Work is underway to repair 400,000 baht worth of damage done by water delivery trucks to a road behind Chalong Temple.

Chalong Municipality confirmed today that work began this week to resurface Luangporgluam Road, which runs alongside the reservoir, an old tin mine, after complaints from locals prompted Chalong Mayor Samran Jindapon to ban water delivery trucks from using the route until the road is repaired.

Mr Samran and other officials from Chalong Municipality inspected the road on May 10 after villagers complained of potholes and standing water on the roadway.

If the road was properly built in the first place this wouldn't happen. But then the contractor and the officials wouldn't get their 30-50% of the project funding.
