The protest action that began this morning (August 1) is still active, as angry Colenso residents have blocked the R103 near Chieveley with huge rocks.
A raging fire in the bush on both sides of the road was lit by residents, who say that they haven’t had running water for months.
Three motor vehicle accidents also took place this evening in the area, as motorists said they tried to avoid the rocks and swerved into the bushes.
