Residents of Jardim América in São José dos Campos are alarmed after a sudden hole appeared on Haiti Street, highlighting ongoing issues with road safety in the area. This event occurred over the weekend and adds to previous incidents, such as two craters that formed on Felisbina de Souza Machado Street just days prior. The community fears an escalation of the problem, especially during rainy days, and is calling for immediate action to prevent potential accidents.

In response to the situation, the local water and sewage utility, Sabesp, reported that they dispatched a technical team to inspect the site. However, as of now, the cause of the newly formed hole has not been determined, and assessments are ongoing. The utility emphasized their commitment to addressing the issue promptly should they find any responsibility on their part.

This pattern of road deterioration raises concerns about public infrastructure maintenance in São José dos Campos, as increased rainfall could exacerbate these vulnerabilities. Residents are increasingly vocal about the need for swift government action to ensure their safety and prevent further incidents that could endanger both pedestrians and motorists in the area.
