The truck which belongs to one of the contractors which conducted road works under the Prime Minister’s multimillion road project crashed right into a billboard before it damaged the Free Wesleyan Church residence’s stone fence.
An eyewitness told Kaniva News there were no injuries.
No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
Another vehicle from the company was seen arriving at the scene to tow the truck.
The crash came after about a month when a truck carrying rocks, which appears to be from the same company, has gone off the road and crashed into a fence before it landed in a front yard in Ha’alalo.
Sometimes when a business is growing, it needs a little help.
Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
