WEHNER’S REPORT: Fitches Creek Residents Demand Action on Incomplete Road Repairs Post-Byelection

Residents of Fitches Creek, a high-end community in St. Peter’s constituency, are expressing frustration over poor road conditions that persist despite recent attempts at repair.

The complaints follow the January 14 byelection, with many taxpayers criticizing what they describe as incomplete and inadequate efforts to address their concerns.

Local resident and advocate George Wenner took to the streets on Saturday, January 18, 2025, to highlight the dire state of several roads, including North Hill, Central Avenue, and Vista Drive.

The roads were reportedly scraped as part of a repair effort but remain unfinished, leaving areas vulnerable to pooling rainwater and worsening damage.

“This is what taxpayers in Fitches Creek have to endure,” said Wenner in a video documenting the conditions. “The community even had to chip in to fill some of these areas themselves.”

Wenner specifically called out MP Roden Turner, urging him to address the issues urgently. “If you can’t handle the work, it makes no sense to take the job,” he stated.

The video shows potholes, unfinished road surfaces, and a lack of proper drainage, exacerbating the community’s challenges during rainfalls. Residents are urging immediate action, saying they are “in it for the long haul” and will continue to demand accountability.

Fitches Creek, known for its upscale homes and ongoing construction projects, represents a microcosm of broader infrastructure concerns across St. Peter. The community hopes their grievances will prompt meaningful and swift interventions from local authorities.

As the post-byelection period unfolds, the spotlight remains on Turner and his team to deliver on promises of development and improved infrastructure for the area.
