Hamala’s commercial strip, widely recognised for its concentration of vehicle repair workshops, faces mounting complaints over deteriorating infrastructure, abandoned cars and an acute shortage of parking. Traders warn that livelihoods are at risk.

In what many describe as a funny fact to ignore, the area is known primarily for fixing cars, yet its broken and uneven roads are said to damage them.

Shop owners say deep potholes and unpaved stretches have turned the journey into a risk, particularly for owners of new or high value vehicles.
