City identifies four possible sites for relocation of Stabroek wharf vendors

Some of the Stabroek Market wharf vendors at the meeting with the city administration on Thursday to discuss their temporary relocation.

City Hall has identified four potential sites for the relocation of approximately 800 vendors before the start of the rehabilitation of the Stabroek Market Wharf as part of the waterfront development project.

At a consultation held in the compound of City Hall on Thursday morning, Town Clerk Royston King identified the East Bank Demerara bus park, sections of Lombard and Cornhill streets, the Merriman Mall and the area west of the Public Buildings as the proposed sites for the relocation of the vendors.

King, however, noted that a decision had yet been made and he indicated that the city is still open to suggestions.
