The increasing deterioration of the roads at the Suva Bus Stand has raised alarms among both pedestrians and bus operators. Operators have reported a growing number of potholes, which create challenges in navigating the area, particularly during peak hours.
In light of these concerns, the Suva City Council (SCC) has committed to prioritizing road repairs. Acting Chief Executive Officer Tevita Boseiwaqa emphasized the council’s ongoing dialogue with the Fiji Roads Authority (FRA) to tackle these issues effectively. “We are treating this as a priority,” Mr. Boseiwaqa stated, highlighting the impact of adverse weather conditions on road quality. He assured the public that once the weather stabilizes, repair efforts will commence promptly.
The situation at the Suva Bus Stand underscores the importance of infrastructure maintenance in urban areas, and the swift response by the SCC could lead to safer travel conditions for all commuters and improve the overall functionality of the bus station.
It is heartening to see local authorities taking quick action and prioritizing the safety and accessibility of public transportation, demonstrating a commitment to community well-being. With repairs on the horizon, there is optimism that the Suva Bus Stand will soon see significant improvements.
