A City Hall contractor rebuilding the drain walls along Lorong Apens 1 in Luyang.
CITY HALL has repaired a roadside drain along Lorong Apens 1 in Luyang, three years after cracks started forming in the structure.
A spokesman for the agency said an inspection carried out in the middle of March revealed that the walls of the structure were damaged.
“This has caused the common land and road in the vicinity to destabilise,” he said on April 12.

“Our contractor rebuilt the walls of the drain to prevent further erosion from occurring.”
He said horizontal concrete supports were also put in place to prevent the walls of the structure from caving in.

The “holes” in the drain are especially hazardous to the youngsters who use the neighbourhood playground.
CITY Hall will, from time to time, keep an eye on the condition of the concrete slabs placed over the drains in Taman Bukit Sepanggar.
A spokesman for the agency said its staff had been instructed to ensure that the drains were not exposed and the slabs covering these structures remained securely in place.
“Ratepayers should also alert us directly of any irregularities involving the drains so that action can be taken to deal with these problems as soon as possible,” he said.
