As the Sheriff Street/Mandela Avenue road expansion project nears completion, additional sums will be required, Public Works Minister Juan Edghill yesterday disclosed during a visit to the site.
With additional works still to be completed, the new deadline for the much criticised project is now February 14, 2022.
Speaking with reporters along the stretch of road, Edghill said he and Senior Minister with responsibility for Finance Dr Ashni Singh, are currently in discussion regarding the source of the additional sums. He did not reveal by how much the project’s costs had overrun but noted that it is “no major difference,” from the original sum.
