The sinkhole worsened after the heavy rains and a business owner, Brian Field, who owns a business on that road, said what makes the situation worse is that the sinkhole is at the bend of the road.

“There have been many occasions where cars have almost collided as motorists swerve onto the oncoming traffic,” said Fied.

There was an incident in December where a car fell into the hole which was unbarricaded at that time.

Field pleaded with the department responsible for fixing sinkholes to repair this road before any major incident happen.
