The PPP/C government has amended the design of the proposed Ogle to Diamond bypass road so the project cost could be in line with the available sums and the Indian Government has accepted the proposal.
Initial works are likely to commence by the end of 2020 into the first quarter of 2021.
Former President Donald Ramotar during his visit to India in January 2015 had received a US$50 million loan commitment from the Indian Exim bank to fund the road project.
