When will the authorities wake up those sleeping Policemen on the West Bank Public road?

For those who reside or work along the West Bank public road, i feel your eternal pain.
Yes, it is quite amazing that for well over a decade maybe close to two, the authorities have never made an effort to rectify those speed bumps which are common along the journey from the Harbor bridge on the western side all the way to Patentia.
Whether they were formed because of an engineering defect or were man made, the fact remains that these bumps not only affect the flow of traffic but also cause immesurable suffering to drivers when they have to visit the mechanic to repair the damage sustained by hitting one of those bumps unexpectedly.
It is most uncommon that such impediments are located on main roadways in a nation and is a constant reminder to all those drivers and commuters who have to continue suffering that just as the regional authorities have failed them in this regard, they have also failed themselves by not being more proactive in raising their concerns with their elected representatives. I do hope that the relitavely simple job of smoothing over these uneaven bumps will be done sooner rather than later: saving many lives, avoiding many accidents and improving the smooth flow of traffic.
