Homes
and businesses on the Lorneville Road are still accessible but a pipe
failure under the Lorneville causeway leaving part of Lorneville Road
closed to thru traffic in both directions because of safety concerns
over a sinkhole.
Transportation Minister Claude Williams tells Tide News they'll have a better idea what to do about that this week.
Williams
says that was one of the pieces of infrastructure they needed to look
into and there was some inspection done last summer, but you can't
predict mother nature. He says this year they are dealing with over a
million dollars in flood damage.
That part of Lorneville Road was flagged as a possible danger spot seven years ago.
