A hillside road built by a strip club owner in Greymouth has raised concerns over potential landslides, according to an independent engineering review. The road, carved into the bush above the town, has left loose earth and vegetation vulnerable to being swept downhill during heavy rain.
The review highlights the risk of erosion and instability in the area, which could pose a danger to nearby properties and infrastructure. Local authorities are now considering measures to address the issue.
James Samson, the strip club boss who constructed the road, has not yet commented on the findings. The situation has sparked discussions among residents about land use and safety in the region.
Authorities are monitoring the area closely and may implement protective measures to prevent any potential hazards. The incident underscores growing concerns about development in environmentally sensitive areas.
