School road

Dear Editor,

I am writing you to highlight the deplorable condition of the road leading to the Dunrobin Primary School. It is unbelievable that a road leading to a government-run school could have deteriorated to such a state, yet the relevant authorities have failed to carry out their function of road maintenance.

The sidewalks have worn away and this is a serious safety hazard for the students who are forced to walk in the road to go to school. The dust which rises from the road which has no surface is a nuisance and a serious health hazard. I am appealing to the relevant authorities to rectify the situation immediately.
