Vreed-en-Hoop vendors, who were made to remove from along the stelling road to facilitate construction work, have refused to take up nearby spots that were identified for them.
The vendors told Stabroek News on Friday that they tried for a week to sell in the area in the stelling identified by Junior Infrastructure Minister Annette Ferguson but they saw few sales and some who sell fruits and vegetables reported that they suffered losses.
The vendors are hoping that they would be able to return to sell along the road during the upcoming Christmas season.
