Contracts for consultancy services for the reconstruction of the St. Roses High School as well as the design of landfill sites at Bartica, Mahdia and Linden were among 29 multi-million dollar awards which received no-objection by Cabinet at its meeting on Wednesday, Minister of State Joseph Harmon announced yesterday.
Harmon informed that a US$134,790 contract has been awarded to the Bynoe, Rowe and Wilshire Partnership for the provision of consultancy services for the reconstruction of the Church Street, Georgetown school. He would later inform that the proposal is for the school to be rebuilt at its present location, as opposed to relocating it.
Harmon told reporters that a $27.9 million contract has also been awarded to S and K Construction Services for the construction of a special needs school at Schoonord, West Bank Demerara, after a survey found that many children residing in Region Three with disabilities required skills training.
