Good day Sanral, this review Is a concern on our cuuntry road conditions, I am aware that it is not your problem but some one higher up has to step in and do something about this critical condition. R57 between Kroonstad and Vredefort is a disaster with occasional patching done that does not last due to traffic and heavy vehicles. R59 from Vredefort to N1 is in a mess, our cars are constantly getting flat tyres with ****age, this stretch of road from Parys to N1 highway was repaired I assume by Free State roads department not 4 months ago, the roads workers left the job as complete but potholes were still visible after they left and now they have multip**** due to heavy vehicles, the rain has not helped much because if there is a pothole it fills with water and the cars splash out the ground inside and they just get worse. We can't blame the rain because if there was no potholes the water will just wash away but now the slightest pothole gets bigger because of water and mud in the hole The contractor who did the patchwork just removed the top layer of tar and filled it up with bags of cold tar... You know just as well as I do that this will not work with heavy traffic and HMV's. It needs to be done properly as Sanral does it by removing all the tar, compacting and put a thick layer of hot asphalt. I just hope this review is noticed to get these roads done properly as Sanral does it. Stone and a layer of tar will not last long
