Problematic Daunne road section set for durable concrete upgrade

Officials say fragile land and risk of subsidence led them to choose concrete over asphalt.

Although construction has been finished in most sections, difficulties persist along the 14-kilometre long Daunne stretch, which has long been the most problematic segment.
