The Lautoka Ratepayers As­sociation president, Narayan Reddy, said it is overwhelm­ing to see that some roads in the area have finally been upgraded.

The Fiji Roads Authority (FRA) re­cently upgraded a number of roads in the town area, in Lovu going to­wards Vitogo and some other resi­dential areas.

Mr Reddy said that ratepayers were extremely happy with the recent projects carried out by the FRA in the Sugar City.

“We request the FRA to continue doing this so that the roads are kept in good condition.”

Lovu residents from Tore Settle­ment, Shabana Nisha, 39 and Rehil Khan, 59 told the Fiji Sun that final­ly, after a number of years, the road in the area had been upgraded.

Ms Khan, who has been residing in Lovu for the past 27 years, said the road conditions were much bet­ter now compared to before.

“The road was in a very bad con­dition before, there were a lot of potholes and it would spoil the ve­hicles that came through,” she said.

Ms Nisha said she was grateful to the Government and especially to the FRA for getting the roads in their area fixed.
