Rock slide blocks road

Roseau, Dominica.

Earth moving equipment was  brought in to clear away a rock slide which occurred  on a section of the West Coast road between Coulibistrie and Colihaut yesterday evening.

According a eyewitness although a few vehicles managed to squeeze through on the narrow portion of road not obstructed by a huge fallen rock, vehicular traffic in both directions generally came to a standstill as commuters waited for authorities to clear the road.

He said the area appeared to be unstable as small rocks continued to roll down the hillside.rock
