Hiding in plain sight
Dear Editor,
The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) is in the market for a new location for its offices and is looking at sites in the suburbs of the city.
If it succeeds it will, as a high volume generator of traffic, continue to contribute to jams and delays that bedevil the experience of urban travelers.
But their experience would, in the long run, be richer if the agency succeeds in getting a spot in the proposed inland Silica City, to which the newly built rapid transit roads will facilitate an exodus of related services, a process that will, over time, result in an appreciable improvement in the traffic troubled Georgetown. But, like the elephant in the room, these possible benefits will remain invisible as long as the search continues to focus on the suburbs.
Regards,
Mr. Fitzroy Collins
