The vital Bagotville Bridge on the West Bank of Demerara was recommissioned yesterday, according to the Department of Public Information (DPI).

Ministers of Public Infrastructure, David Patterson and Annette Ferguson; Regional Executive Officer (REO), Region Three, Dennis Jaikaran and Chief Executive Officer, (CEO) GAICO Construction, Komal Singh unveiled a plaque at the bridge to mark its opening.
