Minister of Public Infra-structure David Patterson on Thursday said that the rehabilitation of the Bagotville Bridge will take three months to be completed.

Patterson made the disclosure during the Committee of Supply’s consideration of the request for an additional $520 million in capital expenditure for his ministry under Financial Paper No. 2, which sought supplementary provisions totalling $2,514,679,330 on the current and capital estimates for the period January to December, 2017.

The ministry, which was allocated $34.6 billion in this year’s $250 billion National Budget, received $6 billion in supplemental financing a month ago.
