Fiji Roads Authority is concerned with offloading off excavators on the road which is damaging the road infrastructure.
FRA Chief Executive Officer- Jonathan Moore says excavators must be transported on trailers when moving from one location to another rather than driving them on the road.
He says these heavy equipment vehicles are not only damaging our roads, but it is also costing taxpayers a lot of money during reconstruction and they will be applying the maximum penalty to deter businesses from offloading heavy equipment vehicles on FRA Roads.
Moore is reminding business owners that vehicles such as excavators, bulldozers is prohibited on the road and to transport them in the legal way and when offloading such equipment from trailers the road surface must be protected
