Surface improvement work has been completed at the Lomaloma Slip along the Transinsular Highway in Savusavu.

This means vehicles can now use both lanes instead of the previous single-lane arrangement.

According to Acting Fiji Roads Authority Chief Executive Officer, Kamal Prasad, the slip will be maintained until they implement a permanent solution.

The 40 metre section of Lomaloma Hill road is constantly subject to slips during prolonged wet weather.

Prasad says they plan to build a bridge as a long-term solution.
