Just two weeks after the Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill stated that he was planning to have Trinidad-based Kallco Guyana Inc dismissed from the Dennis Street project for non-performance, the company has been given the green light to resume work with a new deadline.

This was announced yesterday by the Ministry of Public Works (MoPW) following talks between Edghill and the engineers and principals of Kallco Company who flew into Guyana for the meeting.

It ended with the two sides agreeing to continue to work on the project but with new stipulations. One of them being that the project is now expected to be “substantially” completed by November 5.
