The road from Stanley to Mount Pleasant Airport is a poor road. It seems to have got worse since I last travelled this way many years ago. It has a mix of metalled cover and loose gravel. The loose gravel or unsurfaced part is in the ascendent in length and teeth rattling awfulness. Ridges, enormous potholes and increasing wear render this a nightmare for vehicles, and their occupants; imagine being a patient with abdominal pain or a fracture, enduring this journey. Have I said enough?
