Don’t let the water taxis work the entire day
Dear Editor,
We appreciate the government’s move in introducing the water taxis to ease the plight of residents in New Amsterdam.
But while this has eased the burden of some, it created hardship for others (the mini bus operators plying the Rosignol to New Amsterdam route across the
Berbice River Bridge).
It would be prudent and equally appreciable for the government if, instead of having the water taxis
work all day, have them work from 6:00 -9:00a.m. and from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. In this way, the mini bus operators will be able to eke out a living between those
periods, and the government will have a win-win on all three sides: – appeasing the residents of
New Amsterdam, easing the potential hardship on the mini bus operators, and getting the Berbice
River Bridge toll reduce.
Well done New Administration! We applaud you
Resident of New Amsterdam
