A busy Japanese road reopened on Tuesday, just one week after it was wrecked by a gigantic sinkhole.

Construction workers moved fast to fill the hole, which spanned a five-lane street, stretching 30 metres (98 feet) wide and 15 metres deep.

The chasm first appeared on Tuesday, 8 November, in a business district of the south-west city of Fukuoka.

Puts the hole in the mancunian way to shame.... How long did it take to repair that one?

My wife posted that on Facebook with the comment that it would take years to fix in Indonesia

We must have somebody who is high up in the council living on Tugrah Road as pot holes are fixed in a week or so!

Gee I hope the sinkhole  has not opened up again with the Earthquake Japan is copping.
