Works to begin next month to fix Seawall Road sinkhole

The large sinkhole on the Seawall Road

Sections of the Kitty Public Road will be closed and traffic will be redirected sometime next month when the Ministry of Public Infrastructure (MPI) expects to begin works to fix the sinkhole along the Seawall Road and surrounding defects.

Head of the ministry’s Work Services Group Geoffrey Vaughn told Stabroek News yesterday that a sum of $142 million has been set aside for the repairs to underlying pipes and the replacement of the road. The works are expected to last between two to three months.
