Rehabilitation works at Le Repentir cemetery have been stalled due to the heavy rains and an assessment will be done to determine the way forward, Assistant City Engineer Kabila Hollingsworth says.
Works at the cemetery have been stalled due to the constant rainfall over the past month, the engineer told Stabroek News. He said that they are currently undertaking an infrastructural assessment as it relates to the drains and the condition of the burial ground.
“What we observed is that the aquatic growth is the biggest hindrance in maintaining the cemetery ground…So what we are doing now is to make a proper assessment of the drainage infrastructure and after then, we will be able to proceed with having infrastructural works completed,” Hollingsworth said.
