A Hatton resident is raising renewed concerns over a persistent water leak that continues to flood a community roadway, despite what they describe as more than 100 reports filed with the relevant authorities — all without a permanent resolution.
According to Antigua.news, photos and video submitted by the resident show water flowing freely along a damaged section of road in Hatton, with the unpaved surface heavily eroded and riddled with potholes. Residents believe the problem originates from a burst pipeline in the area.
The footage captures water running across the roadway throughout the day, cutting through potholes and steadily worsening the condition of the road surface. The resident who submitted the material says the situation has become a daily source of frustration for those living nearby.
The leak has drawn sharp concern on two fronts. First, the apparent wastage of potable water is particularly troubling at a time when many residents across Antigua continue to struggle with inconsistent water supply. Second, the constant flow is accelerating the deterioration of the roadway, creating increasingly hazardous conditions for both motorists and pedestrians.
The latest images have renewed calls from the community for the leak to be investigated and repaired before further damage is sustained. It remains unclear how long the leak has been active or whether any repair works have been formally scheduled by the responsible authorities.
Residents are hoping that renewed public attention will be enough to prompt swift action where repeated formal complaints have so far failed to deliver results.
