Major works are set for the Leguan and Bartica stellings this year, General Manager of the Transport and Harbours Department (T&HD) Marcelene Merchant has said.
Making a presentation at the Ministry of Public Infrastructure’s end-of-year review last week, Merchant explained that $762 million has been allocated to the department’s capital programme for 2018, of which $500 million will be spent on the vessels and the remaining $262 million will be spent on the rehabilitation of stellings.
From the money allocated for the stellings, Merchant noted that major works will be done on the Leguan stelling, which has been in a deplorable condition for years, and the completion of the second phase of the Bartica stelling.
