The 200 metres long road is the first for the area, 41 years after Independence.
South Epi Council of Chiefs Chairman, Freddy Erwaliu said the current government is the first to have attended to their grievances about needing proper roads.
“The recent road upgrade will enable a much safer movement of people from communities such as Filakara, Red Stone, Tekelele and Oreau to Toumali where the Yarsu (South Epi) Area Council is located.”
