Residents and businesses in Union Hall, San Fernando, are again calling for urgent drainage upgrades after Monday’s floods left roads impassable and properties under water.
The Golconda Connector Road near the Cross Crossing Interchange has long been a flood-prone area, but businessman Sheraz Dabideen said this week’s flooding was the worst in years.
“Because our area is the catchment for Duncan Village, Esperance, Philippine and Union Hall, and because of the entire housing development, there is no land to collect the water. We had excessive flooding because of the heavy rain in a short space of time,” Dabideen said.
