– use caution as road construction continues, says Troy Resources

TROY Resources Guyana Inc. (TRGI) is calling on Linden to 72-mile road users to moderate their speed and use caution as the road construction continues.TRGI is currently repairing the road from Linden to 72- mile junction and this road upgrade has so far led to a reduction in travel time, a press release stated.
However, the upgrading of the road has led to a massive increase in traffic and this is severely hampering road works beyond the Omai Crossing.
Therefore, TRGI is appealing to truck drivers and other users of this road to temporarily minimise traffic on this part of the road and to instead utilise the alternative at Sherima crossing until the project is completed.
“Heavy usage during construction is accelerating the road’s destruction. Once completed, traffic can resume and the roads will last much longer. We will not be able to properly cap the road while it is being used,” TRGI stated.
This road project is completely funded by TRGI, as part of its investment in the Karouni Project. Hindrances and delays increase the cost to the company and will affect its ability to properly complete the job.
In the meantime, road works are also ongoing in the 58- Mile location. The high speeds increase dust and make it difficult for machine operators to see, so “PLEASE REDUCE YOUR SPEED”, TRGI urged.
TRGI is appealing to road users to moderate their speed and to use caution on the roadway which is being upgraded with permission from the Ministry of Public Works, the release concluded.
