Just over a week ago, the residents of Plaisance were gifted a new bridge linking Victoria Road onto Britton Street, according to a Department of Public Information (DPI) release.
Students of the University of Guyana undertook the reconstruction of the Britton Street Bridge as part of a student project.
Donna McKinnon, Head of the Government and International Affairs Department and lecturer at the University of Guyana, said that she hopes that the students will apply the theoretical knowledge gained from classes to boost their communities. She added that the project-assignment had the additional benefit of underscoring the importance of local
government in community development.
