Kaieteur News – The Eccles Landfill Road commonly called the ‘Dumpsite Road’ will soon be extended at a cost of US$40M (G$8,481,545,837). The road was under construction last year and the initial cost stood at G$1.2B.
At the opening of tenders on Tuesday at the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board Office, it was revealed that the Central Housing and Planning Authority is seeking contractors for the “extension of four lane road at Eccles Landfill”, a project which would be done in six lots.
The estimated figures for the lots are as follows: Lot1 $1,688,814,383, Lot2 $1,639,717,118, Lot3 $1,290,722,738, Lot4 $1,170,901,725, Lot5 $1,170,838,725 and Lot6 $1,520,551,148.
Kaieteur News understands that the upgrade was prompted due to the deterioration of the road. It is important to note that the Eccles dumpsite road connects Mandela Avenue to the Eccles highway.
