Work has commenced on a new Road that will connect the people living in the Sepik Plains area.
The Newly constructed road from Bararat to Mindokum in the Sauso LLG of Yangoru Sausia District is a vital Road link that has been missing for many years.
Mindokum Community Leader Levi Kuaha said for many years, people have to walk long distances to access basic government services like health services.
“We have asked for assistance to help us build our roads, however nothing has been done.
“We have to walk with our cargoes every night to the main road, to catch a PMV to town.” Kuaha said.
The six kilometers Road was built at a cost of over K500 000.
However there is more to be done, to maintain this vital road link.
Local MP Richard Maru said many villages in the district are still not connected by Road, and many do not have health and education services.
He said, he is committed to ensure no one is left behind.
“The completion of this road is part of my commitment to ensure everyone in Yangoru Sausia has the same level of services.” Maru said.
