"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the road has been re-designed. As opposed to previous times when contractors would go on site and commence work even before the design has been done, we now do the design first before the contractor goes to the ground. I can assure the hon. Member that the design for this road has been done, and that the road will sustain the 40-tonne lorries he has talked about. The issue is really not the 40-tonne lorries he has talked about, but rather the axle load legally allowed on the road. The design limit is per axle load and we allow eight tonnes per axle. The mare axles a lorry has, the more tonnage it can carry. So, when we are checking on mobile bridges, we check per axle and the gross weight of the vehicle. So, I can assure you that the design is going to cater for all that."
