The village of Vevay, Mahaica is now benefitting from an all-weather access road.

Vevay is a small community located about a mile south of the now hardly used Mahaica road leading to the old Mahaica Bridge and market.

According to a Department of Public Information (DPI) press release, Melissa Thomas, a resident, was quoted as saying, “I am 39 years old. I was born and grew up in this community. My father is 70 odd years old – the people living here are all relatives. From the time  I have known myself, getting out to the main road at Mahaica, the old road, was always a struggle.”
