KINGSTON - Approximately 80 percent of the Ituni/Kwakwani road, Region 10 is in good condition and shortly the Ministry of Public Infrastructure (MPI) will commence ‘grading and shaping’ to make it more favorable for users.
Copious heavy duty vehicles traverse the road on a daily basis.
A team of Engineers, headed by Coordinator of Works Services Group (WSG), Geoffrey Vaughn, carried out an inspection of the road last Friday, September 18, 2015.
According to Mr. Vaughn, at least six culverts will be installed along deteriorating sections to improve drainage, as well as, grading and shaping.
Nonetheless, the team will go back to the drawing board and come up with a feasible design for the road that will endure the weather and heavy traffic. Once the design is approved, Mr. Vaugh stated, works on the road will begin in 2016.
The team also inspected the Tacama Bridge, which is in “fairly good condition.”
