Guyana Times was told by residents that the access road was the gateway to the backlands and was being used by heavy-duty vehicles transporting logs, sand, and other materials on a daily basis.
The issue was raised at Tuesday’s sitting of the Region Two Regional Democratic Council (RDC) and Alliance For Change (AFC) Councillor Nathram said that owing to heavy rainfall works on the road were put on hold, but would continue as early as the weather conditions permit and residents are asked to be patient. The contract was awarded through Central Government by the Public Infrastructure Ministry.
