About seventy percent (70%) of the repair works at the Parika Stelling, Essequibo River have been completed. This is according to a statement issued
by Maritime Administration Department (MARAD).
MARAD outlined that the Government of Guyana has expended some $36M on this project as part of its allocation to the Transport & Harbours Department (T&H.D).
According to the General Manager of T&H.D, Marceline Merchant, cluster piles and fenders were installed at the waterside front to prevent ships from making contact with the stelling. Additionally, maintenance works were conducted on the main carriageway at the entrance, including the painting and the replacing of beams and deck planks.
It was pointed out that throughout the duration of this project, access to the stelling by passengers, vehicles, speedboats along with department’s Ferry vessels continued. This, T&HD said, was very challenging, “nevertheless the department is pleased that the works have been progressing at a fast pace and are expected to be completed in another two weeks’ time”.
The project commenced in November 2014.
