THE ROAD user complained to
the Sabah DAP Vice chairman Edward Ewol Mujie over the poor condition of the
road leading from Ranau to Kundasang recently during his visit to the district
here.
The people here are not
happy about the broken road surface which is due for resurfacing for a long
time, but there is no sign that the JKR is going to resurface the stretch of
road. The bitumen surface is already broken up and filled with rough surface which
posted danger to vehicles. The cracked up surface will caused the vehicles to
skit and caused severe damage to the car tires. This is more dangerous at the
road corners and where there is a sharp turn.
The white road lines had
faded and disappeared totally, and at many road bends there is no road line at
all. This is very dangerous for the drivers because they cannot see clearly
especially at night. By right, there should be reflective road lines on this
hilly road which is normally covered by thick fogs and mist.
Edward urges the JKR to
resurface this stretch of road and get it done properly before any serious road
accident occurs here. We don’t know how soon the JKR can do this but we really
wish they can come to do it soonest possible. The road lines must be painted
fast and do not wait too long to do it.
Edward also said that the
road safety signage is largely not being installed and it is compulsory that
the road safety signage must be installed immediately. This is very important
on this hilly and winding road. Many times the driver did not follow the
traffic rules and serious accident did happened here. It is the responsibility
of the JKR to ensure the road is safe for the drivers.
