THE UWI Seismic Research Centre says the recent road/land damage in Los Iros may be a result of landslides caused by heavy rains.

On June 27, councillor for Palo Seco Anton George had posted to Facebook saying the land shifted "dramatically" at Royal Engineer Road, and in some areas, rose "eight to ten feet in the air.

"Approximately, we may have lost two kilometres of roadway. This is a vital route for over fifty farms that fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Agriculture, highlighting the urgent need for intervention and support. We urge everyone to exercise extreme caution in the area."
