Members of the Wallsend Diggers Sporting Club, which suffered serious damage when a sinkhole appeared under the greens in late March, say they have been left in the dark over the future of their club as remedial works at the site stretch into the 11th week.
The state government's mine subsidence authority, which has taken oversight of the situation on Fogo Street where the ground suddenly sunk several inches on rainy Saturday morning on March 25 causing an estimated $3 million damage to the Sporties' bowling greens and cracking the adjacent roadway, said in a brief statement at the weekend that works to fix the site have ben progressing.
