A cement block construction business at New Annlegt, Canal Number Two, West Bank Demerara, is attracting complaints from drivers and residents alike due to its inconvenient location.

The business is owned by Tameshwar Arjune, a contractor who also resides in New Annlegt. He told Stabroek News that he would soon be closing off the operation.

When Stabroek News visited the community, finished cement blocks were observed to have taken up space along the parapet almost equivalent to the width of four residential lots in the community.
