Even as works have advanced on the controversial Leguan Stelling, Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill has reminded the contractor of his June deadline and asked that he speed up.
“We want to see this work doubling up. We want see this work moving fast. It is not what we want it to be right now, because we should have been way ahead of this,”Edghill said on Wednesday during a visit to the worksite.
The stelling on the Essequibo River island of Leguan has been under construction for approximately four years and has faced several setbacks including litigation by the state against the contractor, S. Maraj Contracting Services.
