Takutu Bridge likely to be opened by July

By Miranda La Rose

The Takutu Bridge linking Guyana and Brazil has been completed but there are a number of finishing touches to be done including the installation of the rails and it is anticipated that the bridge would be inaugurated by July.

Meanwhile, the Guyana/Brazil Partial Scope agreement which comes to an end next month is expected to be extended for another two years. And there are calls for businesses and potential exporters to add new products to the list of products which may be eligible for export to Brazil with the opening of the bridge.
