SANTIAGO.- Community organizations from the community of El Aguacate, in Moca, accompanied by the priest José Agustín Fernández, denounced the threat of a landslide on the highway of that community and the stoppage of the work to remodel the road that connects Moca , Cayetano Germosén, Las Lagunas and Salcedo.
Popular groups mounted a picket to ask the provincial authorities, the Ministry of Public Works and President Luis Abinader to show interest in the problem and come to their aid before a tragedy occurs.
Father Fernández, from the Nuestra Señora de La Altagracia parish, said that the last straw is that the main danger is in front of the Church and that it puts his community and people traveling in vehicles at risk.
Meanwhile, the community leader Juan Comprés said that the groups will continue to demand the completion of the work before it is too late.

In the protest, community members and parishioners of the Church spoke who complained about the delay in responding to the claims that they have been formulating for years.
They said that this road is their only means of communication with Moca, and that in any rainy season the community of El Aguacate will be cut off from the municipalities of Cayetano Germosén, Las Lagunas and Salcedo.
They denounced the progressive deterioration of the road that is endangering the parishioners who go to said Church, because in front of it is the main problem of the collapse.
They said that if they do not take care of him through this route, they will resort to more forceful protest actions.
