La Parfaite Harmonie to become largest housing scheme – Housing Minister

Mar 05, 2013 News

Housing Minister, Irfaan Ali, says that La Parfaite Harmonie in Region Three will become a scheme second to none , rivaling the Diamond/Grove Housimg Scheme in size and overall  development.
Last year alone, the Housing Ministry through Central Planning and Housing Authority (CPHA) invested close to $1Billion which benefitted 30,000 residents living in Region Three.
“La Parfaite Harmonie, a growing community, has been expanded to include other communities. At the end of the day this scheme will rival Diamond /Grove Housing Scheme, one of the largest schemes,” Ali said
According to the Minister, part of the expansion and transformation would include the construction of the alternative entrance and exit to La Parfaite housing scheme.
Alluding to the progress of the road works there, he said, “Contractors are mobilizing on the very important highway into La Parfait Harmonie and the other areas; we are hoping that by the end of August or early September that road will be completed and that we can have that new highway which will bring tremendous benefits and improvements to the lives of people there.”
The $600M alternative access road to La Parfaite Harmonie Housing Scheme will ensure that residents of that area and surrounding schemes have closer links to the capital city.
In addition to the benefit of providing additional access, the completed roadway will have the characteristics of a modern highway, Minister Ali added.
The Housing Ministry and the CHPA also embarked on the construction of an additional access bridge which is 95 per cent completed, and which is expected to be opened to the public shortly.
The Minister explained, too, that Region Three will continue to see expansion and development with the addition of a further 1000 lots in the Versailles/Lust en Rust area.
