Sales and consumer traffic have decreased at the Giftland Mall as a result of the roadblocks erected for official activities at the nearby Arthur Chung Conference Centre preventing many customers from getting to the mall, according to Chairman of the Giftland Group Roy Beepat.
A number of roadblocks were erected along the Railway Embankment from the University of Guyana access road to Bel Air. Police officers were stationed at each roadblock and stopped every vehicle attempting to pass.
The roads are blocked to facilitate the ongoing CRIC17 conference at the Arthur Chung Conference Centre.
