The sad thing is ppl not filing any claims, if your car is damaged or you are injured due to a crater or pothole you can file to receive compensation, it may take some time but you will get it but everybody normal so great is the PNM.....we shall prevail
Yes this is true. I have received compensation from wasa for vehicle repairs. After about 10 months.
Imagine if EVERYBODY did this bet your bottom dollar they would find the money to fix the roads
For once, Max is correct. Trinis are lazy and corrupt.

You have to contact Wasa legal department. Of course you should have all supporting documents and evidence to support your case.

That's since 2019, nothing has come of it. We rather get caught up in fete, rum, liming, name calling etc than do something that benefits in the long run.

Concrete patching, better than what the ministry does. Only thing is if he mix the formula for over 3000psi to handle trucks.

Zambie patches 100 potholes
...dubbed Aranguez's local gov't minister

Image
In the last seven years, Ramchandra “Zambie” Teemal has repaired more than 100 potholes within the Aranguez community in a bid to ease the frustration of motorists and taxi drivers

From 2015 to now, Teemal, 61, has given more than 200 hours of his labour to patch roads that have been filled with holes, craters and sinks using materials donated by two hardware companies.

Due to his swift intervention, Teemal is being hailed by motorists, taxi drivers, friends, residents and family members of his Sookai Street, Aranguez home as the community’s local government minister.

It is estimated that more than $20,000 has been spent on construction materials to have some deplorable roads improved in the bustling district, while Teemal’s labour has been valued at over $30,000.

He said this was a small price to pay compared to the thousands of dollars motorists have to fork out regularly to replace busted tyres, damaged suspension and dished rims due to the poor state of the nation’s roads.

“Not forgetting the inconvenience and the frustration it causes. To the taxi drivers, the route became more of an obstacle course,” Teemal said.

Teemal, the president of the Aranguez Taxi Drivers’ Association representing 60 drivers, told the Sunday Guardian that he took on the task of single-handedly patching the roads after numerous complaints to the authorities fell on deaf ears and photographs posted on his Facebook page that showed the terrible condition of the roads were ignored.

“I  decided to repair the roads to bring some relief to motorists and taxi drivers who spent hours manoeuvring these holes and craters in Aranguez to get from one point to the next. The situation was just getting out of hand.”

Describing himself as a patriot, Teemal said he did not patch the roads for fame and glory but his “love for country and community”.

Using his initiative, Teemal struck up a deal with two San Juan businesses—Tool Time Hardware and Aranguez Hardware—to supply the gravel and cement, while he provides labour.

Despite having no paving skills, Teemal said he used his common sense to get the job done.

“I compacted the potholes with crushed bricks, stones or gravel and covered the surface with a mixture of gravel and cement.”

Depending on the depth, length and width of the crater, Teemal would use between two and three bags of cement and a yard of gravel.

If a job is too large for Teemal to handle, other taxi drivers would lend a helping hand.

Teemal admitted that while some of the projects he undertook have remained intact, the weight of the larger trucks on the roads has led to cracks appearing on the concrete paved areas.

Sinanan announces short-term plan to fix Trinidad’s roads

Works and Transport Minister Rohan Sinanan has assured motorists short-term works are already under way to ensure a “vast improvement” in their driving experience.

Contributing to the 2022-2023 budget debate in the House of Representatives on Monday, the minister outlined plans to repair much-complained-about bad roads across Trinidad.

He said while the ministry continues to address the issue, it was aware there was “much work to be done”.

Sinanan said in the short term, a spot-patching programme was developed to engage small contractors to undertake spot patching of roads, adding that the contracts involve labour and equipment only.

He said the ministry will supply hot mix asphalt concrete to the various contractors.

“This strategy allows the ministry to control the quality of hot mix being supplied, thereby improving the durability of spot patching. It also promotes the development of small contractors while addressing the real problem facing certain roadways,” he said.

Sinanan said in addition to the eight in-house patching teams, the ministry is executing the programme in two phases.

He said phase one, which is the award of 25 contracts, is already in progress, while the second phase covers an additional 25 contractors.

“Upon completion of this exercise, members of the public can expect a vast improvement in the driving experience. The ministry anticipates a continuation of this programme in 2023,” Sinanan said.

He said ageing Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) infrastructure contributed to the deterioration of roads in many areas.

Load scales for trucks

On the approaches to improving road conditions in fiscal 2023, Sinanan said focus will be placed on ensuring the durability of roads.

He said the ministry is currently conducting a comprehensive review of the design and specification for materials currently being used for road rehabilitation and construction to ensure roads last.

He said previous policies that were adopted required the use of Trinidad Lake Asphalt (TLA) cement on all main roads and highways, but in the past this requirement was not always met.

“The ministry intends to work closely with Lake Asphalt to ensure the constant production of high-quality products at a competitive cost.

Going forward, it is the ministry’s intention to expand our policy to utilise TLA cement on secondary and tertiary roads for rehabilitation and paving projects. It is anticipated that this approach will ensure a more durable road surface,” Sinanan assured.

He said in addition, TLA is collaborating with The University of the West Indies to develop a training programme on spot paving for small contractors, aimed at improving the quality of the final product and ensuring durability of roads.

Sinanan noted one of the factors leading to the premature deterioration of roads is overloaded commercial trucks.

“As you are aware, the Transport Board presently approved the use of special vehicles over 15 tonnes and trailers over eight tonnes with conditions and restrictions. This is indeed to ensure that vehicles in the range use roads that can structurally support the axial load, thereby minimising damage,” he explained.

Sinanan said the ministry was working closely with the Police Service to ensure these regulations are enforced.

He said trucks will be weighed to ensure they are compliant with their licensed maximum gross weight. He noted the fine for exceeding this requirement is $8,000.

“The Licensing Division will be conducting comprehensive and frequent weight-control exercises along the highways and main roads to ensure compliance with the law,” he said.

“The ministry proposes to install two axial load scales. One will be placed in the vicinity of the Couva interchange, along the Solomon Hochoy Highway, and the other at Valencia,” Sinanan announced.

Driver slows for pothole, gets attacked, robbed

A PENAL motorist who while driving applied brakes to avoid a pothole in the road on Sunday afternoon, was held up at gunpoint when the vehicle slowed down.

The motorist came face-to-face with guns pointed at him by two men, who then stole his $15,000 vehicle and sped off with it.

A police report said that at around 5 p.m. on Sunday, the victim was driving his blue Nissan B12 in a northerly direction along Congo Trace, Penal Rock Road, Penal.

He reported to police that he observed that a silver Nissan Prairie overtook his vehicle, then crashed into a light pole on the western side of the road.

The motorist said that moments later he slowed down due to a pothole in the road then observed two men emerge from the crashed vehicle.

They wore black clothing and face masks, and as they approached him they pointed firearms at him.

The men ordered him out of his car, and when he complied, they got into it and drove off.

Police officers later found the victim’s Nissan B12 abandoned in an area near Platanite Trace, Barrackpore.

The vehicle was wrecked to the Barrackpore police station and was expected to be forensically examined.

PC Sandy is continuing investigations.

I always say the British should take back control and people think I joking

We have a mc pitch lake and we roads is still shiet.

Kids running the school right now. Making sure their padnahs get all the snacks in the canteen meanwhile it have some poor starving kid in the back of the classroom just salting.

Time for the teachers to step back in. White people really do run things better than Indians and Africans , we need to admit that.

Bring back British rule. We will have better roads but horrible teeth and unseasoned food, i'm okay with that tradeoff.

WASA mash up the corner of John and Gaston St. rel good yesterday. That's the turn off with the traffic lights to get back into Chaguanas via the Main Rd. if you're coming from on the Southbound highway.

Expect it to be fixed never because that entire back street John St. and Penco St. littered with WASA created trenches and craters for years now.

Re: Trinidad: Pothole capital of the world

Went Mayaro on Monday and passed through the M1 ring road and then through Rio Claro. I expected the road to be worse than it is. It’s bad with a number of land slips putting one lane higher than the other but it’s definitely passable.

Have a big sink hole in Westmoorings, sewer smell coming out of it, same thing happening in beetham again. No protest. Rowley voters are the same all over.
