A hillside road built by a strip club owner in Greymouth has raised concerns over potential landslides. An independent engineering review found that the road, carved into the bush, has left loose earth and vegetation vulnerable to being swept downhill during heavy rain.
The road, constructed by James Samson, is located above the town and has been flagged for its unstable conditions. Engineers warn that the terrain could become hazardous if rainfall increases, leading to erosion and possible damage to nearby areas.
Local authorities are considering measures to stabilize the slope and prevent further risks. No immediate action has been taken, but officials are monitoring the situation closely.
The issue highlights growing concerns about infrastructure safety in the region. Residents have expressed worries about the potential impact on their homes and businesses.
