#JamaicaGleaner A pumpkin vine growing in one of the potholes and scattered uprooted aloe vera plants paint a picture of neglect along Oakland Crescent in Payne Land, St Andrew, where residents are growing increasingly frustrated by the deteriorating road conditions leading to their homes. Frequently afflicted by flooding due to a gully along Waltham Park Road that overflows on to the roadway during periods of heavy rainfall, the residents said they are often inconvenienced. �A pure water dig it up, y�know. Water weh come from the gully come right down [and] carry dead dog and everything down here,� one resident told The Gleaner on Thursday, looking at the state of the roadway. Seventy-six-year-old Trevor �Bunny� Francis explained that it has been difficult for him
