The completion of the Eccles to Mandela Avenue alternative road link has been further delayed due to ongoing inclement weather.
Contracts for the construction of the road were awarded in six lots in April 2021, a move contemplated to have a series of works completed simultaneously and all within a specific timespan.
On Tuesday, in response to queries from Stabroek News, Minister of Housing and Water, Collin Croal, stated that the contractors will not be able to meet the deadline, but there has been an increase in work intensity to see how much can be completed by the revised December 31st due date.
