Public and utility companies equally contribute to damage of roads and drains, say stakeholders


A manhole with a missing cover in Lorong Walter Granier off Jalan Bukit Bintang has been covered with plank, wood and rocks.

Pedestrian walkways in commercial areas are riddled with gaping holes and broken manhole covers that pose a threat to the community.
