The recent damage along two sections of the Linden-Soesdyke Highway caused by washouts is expected to be fixed by the end of the week, head of the Ministry of Public Infrastructure’s Work Services Group Geoffrey Vaughn says.
Vaughn told Stabroek News that the issue is currently engaging the attention of the ministry, which is currently working on contracting a company to do the repairs.
Washouts are breaches caused by flooding.
Vaughn, who noted that the repairs should be done by the end of the week, said that as part of the ministry’s ongoing annual maintenance programme, all main thoroughfares, including the Linden-Soesdyke Highway, are regularly maintained.
