The billion-dollar D’Urban Park project is not seen as a priority for the new PPP/C administration.
Public Works Minister Juan Edghill in a recent telephone interview told Stabroek News that there has not been any discussion on the future of the recreational area which was controversially created under the APNU+AFC government.
D’Urban Park, which was dubbed the “Green Zone Recreational Park,” was created to host activities for Guyana’s 50th anniversary celebrations in 2016 and has since attracted major controversy and required expensive remedial work. Asked if there has been any discussion or briefing provided to him on the development plans for D’Urban Park since taking up office, Edghill responded in the negative.
