The sudden change in the scope of a project to construct a concrete bridge rather than a timber one at Yeovil, West Coast Berbice, at nearly twice the value of the original contract, and the failure to have the amended project retendered, was brought into question at the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) of Parliament meeting on Monday.
The original project to construct a greenheart bridge was awarded to a contractor at a value of $2.674 million, the highest of eleven bids.
