A section of the footpath along Queens Road in Martintar, Nadi, has become a dangerous spot that threatens the safety of pedestrians, particularly during dusk and nightfall. The timber covering of this footpath is deteriorating, posing a significant risk to unsuspecting walkers.

It appears that personnel from the Fiji Roads Authority may not be fully aware of this hazardous condition, which could jeopardize the well-being of schoolchildren and the elderly who frequent the area. A local retiree, taking daily walks, has observed these growing concerns and is advocating for improvements to make Martintar a safer community.

There is an urgent need for immediate action to address these safety issues and prevent potential injuries.

This situation underlines the importance of civic engagement, as community members play a critical role in highlighting areas that require attention. By bringing these dangers to light, there is hope for a more prompt response from authorities, leading to a safer environment for all pedestrians.
